    The cooler itself is great. But got it with the wrong mounting bracketsin the kit, so i cant mount it or use it for my ne pc build. Waiting for response from Amazon on this issue.

    If you are thinking to spend the extra money for a noctua instead of other cheaper alternative you might have already searched the reviews online. Youd still be surprised how quite it is even you know the db values ahead from detailed reviews. Quality is just as good as its reputation unless you received a bad/used sample. However other components in your setup is most likely much noisier, especially when you need this much of cpu cooling you might have a powerful(ish) GPU as well, then that and/or the case fans will still keep your system noisy.

    Absolutely silent and a brilliant CPU cooler. Have just built a Games / Media PC for the living room and needed a quiet cooler. This cooler is the quietest cooler Ive ever used.

    Noctua make the best air cooler money can buy! The fans are ugly but it give most AIO water cooling unit a run for their money.

    Fairly easy to fit and keeps my i74790K nice and cool even when running at 4.4Ghz!

    Good product easy to install comes with its own thermal compound. I dont know why intel socket ones cost more than AMD but it works great and silently.

    Nun ja sexy sieht der Kühler natürlich nicht aus, für mich ist es aber die ultimative Sorgenfrei-Lösung die man 5 Minuten nach dem Einbau vergisst. Sehr einfach zu montieren und selbst unter Last praktisch lautlos. Zukunftssicher auch bei neueren Sockets. Genau was ich wollte.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility
