10-06-2025Dicho mal y pronto, hasta un tonto puede montar esto de lo bien explicado que viene todo, bien empaquetado y protegido. Ruido 0 y refrigeración increible. Con el anterior que tenía de cooler master, mi i7-9700k se ponia facil en 70 o mas dando caña, haciendo lo mismo exactamente e incluso pasando tests de estrés, pasa poco mas alla de los 60. Si no confias en la durabilidad de las refrigeraciones liquidas por sus obstrucciones, esta marca es de lo mejor que vas a encontrar.

Greater than one weekFacile da montare, silenziosissimo, ottima qualità . Montato su un Intel i7 di decima generazione, alla frequenza base di 2,9 gHz con giochi complessi come simulatori di guida e di volo non supera i 65 gradi. Davvero ottimo .

> 3 daySuper quiet! I had this on an Intel Core I-7 4770K running at full throttle on all cores for 4 days. The temp stayed even and in the clear, and you still couldnt hear the fan! A+

> 3 dayIve used dozens of Noctua coolers in builds of my own and client PCs. They might be an odd color, but from the moment you see the box you know youre getting a top quality product. Even the instructions are clear and well written!

> 3 dayGreat cooler for my Skylake build. I did take the ugly fan off and put in a BitFenix Spectre red 120mm fan. I have a red and back theme. (see picture). This bad boy keeps my i5 6600k nice and cool. Easy to install and no moving parts like a water cooler. It will work forever. Here is a link to an ASUS build with JJ. He loves this cooler and uses it a lot in his builds. (youtube.com/watch?v=4A4a7LfOxuI)

> 3 dayPour bon nombre de tests, Noctua est considéré comme un des meilleurs pour les processeurs et vu ma configuration bi-CPU, cest idéal au point de vue place et refroidissement. La température des xeon E5 reste à un niveau relativement bas. Les ventilateurs ne font pratiquement pas de bruit;

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibilityStanding 158mm tall, the NH-U12S is short enough to fit most modern mid- or high-end tower cases. Measuring 125mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups. |
100% RAM compatibilityThanks to its slim design with only 45mm fin depth, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and ensures 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans. |
