    Exactly what I needed as I moved from second water cooling failure. Very quiet and seems to cool well. FYI - Ensure this will fit your case and there are multiple versions. May get one for main computer.

    Ho acceso il pc senza dissipatore per vedere la differenza e la temperatura si aggirava sui 85/90°. Montato il dissipatore, provato il pc per ore e la temperatura non supera i 40°.

    I had heard about Noctua for a long while in the enthusiast circle as being the number one in terms of PC air cooling. However, I never got a chance to try one of their products until this past weekend and now Im a firm believer!

    Mit diesem Lüfter ist es wirklich klasse, eine niedrige Temperatur im Gaming zu halten. Da ist es mit dem Übertakten auch kein Problem mehr.

    Muy buen disipador ,enfria muy bien en reposo de 16 a 17 grados no pasa de 35 grados navegando por internet, no hice overclocking en todavia,me dejo sorprendido de lo que enfriá le cambie la pasta termica que traia el disipador NT-H1 por una Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut 12.5W y el resultado no pudo ser mejor, estoy muy contento con este disipador moctua, es de lo mejor, gracias noctua por el buen trabajo hecho

    Finalmente ho risolto i problemi di surriscaldamento del processore. Non si riavvia più, ora dovrei passare ad un case meglio aerato...

    I had no idea that my other CPU fan was so loud until I put this thing on it. Oh, I have to mention, I also had no idea that my previous CPU fan was inadequate to cool my CPU. This thing runs about half of my other fan, is quieter and cools better. im impressed!

    Da possessore e recensore del fratello maggiore NH-U14S, quando ho avuto la necessita di acquistare un dissipatore per un sistema più compatto con un case di dimensioni limitate, la scelta è stata praticamente immediata e ho preso senza neanche pensarci troppo questo NH-U12S.

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.

NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fan

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.

NT-H1 thermal compound

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.
