> 3 dayI just received this cooler in the mail and immediately got it in my system to replace my stock Intel cooler. Before I made the change, running Prime95 for about 10 minutes would get the CPU to almost 80 degrees Celsius on my Pentium G3258 overclocked to 4.0ghz at 1.35v. After installing this cooler and running the same Prime95 stress test I didnt see over 62 degrees. I am more than thrilled with how well this cooler is performing, and Im proud to have the Noctua badge on my systems case. Would give 7 stars if I could.

> 3 dayParlliamo dell miglior dissipatore ad aria esistente sul mercato. Efficente, silenzioso, ottimo sotto ogni punto di vista. Il montaggio se eseguito correttamente permette di mantenere temperature bassissime anche in overclock. Noctua una garanzia.

> 3 dayWasnt expecting what I got. I was expecting to have a CPU temp of easily 60C or higher. Wasnt the case. I bought a second NF-F12 and it keeps my CPU below 50 at all times even with fan speeds of only 50%.

> 3 dayRead all the reviews from Linus Tech Tips and sure enough I can see why he loves Noctua products. Installing it was a literal godsend! I owned a Xigmatech Dark Knight 2 and that thing was a absolute nightmare to install. This only took me 20 minutes to install properly.

> 3 dayThe AMD build brackets do not fit the backplate at all. It may have been a defect but the bracket is oversized so it does not mount at all.

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. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended 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 compoundHaving 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. |
