    This is a fantastic product! I replaced a cooler master N520, that was a noisy 3 wire set up. I hooked up to my 4 wire PWM control/header on my motherboard and let the BIOS drive the fan. Now I cant hear my computer when its running. Only makes sound when I have a load on processor, and at that OMG its still insanely quiet. If you are building a silent machine, I would recommend this product.

    Certes, ce nest pas vraiment un premier prix, mais quand vous ouvrez la boite, vous découvrez un matos de haut niveau, des conseils et outils adaptés permettant un montage facile ( attention à la taille du boitier quand même).

    Read the reviews here, and via the net. This is a solid cooler. Ive got my i5-4670K OCd to 4.4ghz just fine with the NH-U12. And it runs pretty quiet too! would recommend to anyone looking to OC the i5.

    Une œuvre dart!, la surface e contact avec le proco, on, dirait un miroir! Aucun problème pour placer des barrettes mémoire volumineuses, et ce grand ventilo est exceptionnellement silencieux, beau boulot!

    The included mounting clips werent quite strong enough to retain the fans when I received them in the mail. I managed to make it work for some time, but decided to email Noctua support to see if they had any suggestions.

    Does a better job of cooling my computer than my old Hyper 212 EVO, and easier to install.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility

Standing 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 compatibility

Thanks 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.

Recommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts world-wide, the Noctua"s premium quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned to combine superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation.

Having received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua"s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.
