    You need only buy once from this company to understand the difference.

    Había leído que con este disipador se bajaba hasta 20º la temperatura del procesador, y no sé si esa cifra es exacta, pero un i7 10700kf funcionando a toda máquina en mitad de un juego se mantiene a 67º, una temperatura muy baja teniendo en cuenta que podría llegar a 85º o 90º con facilidad. Además es muy, muy silencioso y facilísimo de montar. Y encima no me parece nada caro y más con la pasta térmica que trae, que por sí sola ya vale un dinero.

    fantastic product, really easy to install (my BeQuiet one beforehand was a total pain to install) - and it runs cooler and quieter than the heavy older bequiet one. Worth the extra cost I think (note am running an Ivy Bridge I7, not overclocked)

    Ein Sahnestück von vorn bis hinten und ein echtes Erlebnis. Allein die Verpackung - alles geordnet und sofort intuitiv nachvollziehbar. Wärmeleitpaste hoher Güte. Leiser Lüfter, kompakter Kühlkörper, extrem leichte Montage. Alles sehr durchdacht. Selbst ein Temperaturfühler (brauchte ich nicht) ist mit dabei für die Lüftersteuerung. Noctua ist für mich die Lüfter-Kühler-Oberklasse. Über die Haltbarkeit des Lüfters kann ich natürlich nichts schreiben, aber bisher ist mir noch nie ein CPU-Kühlerlüfter ausgestiegen.

    Ive used the Coolermaster Hyper Evo 212 for years. If youve used a Coolermaster you know how HARD and frustrating mounting it can be, and how you worry it is seated properly, and whether or not it is too tight on your CPU. It is also better done as a two man job!

    I originally had installed an EVGA CLC240 AIO liquid cooler on my new build but it was loud and I wasnt impressed with the temps, I was also worried about leaking ruining my $1,500 computer. Then I ordered a Noctua u14s, only to find out it wouldnt fit in my case by 2mm! So finally, I ordered this Noctua u12s. Fit perfectly, installation was simple and quick, and the temps Im getting are great. Keep in mind its summer and pretty warm in my room, but I have a nice stable 5.0GHz Adaptive OC on my 8700k @ 1.25v. Idle temps get as low as 25C when not using my computer. When just browsing the internet and watching videos, they stay around 34-35C. When gaming my CPU stays around 68C-70C. And torture tests (100% Load small FFT) bring it up to around 78C-81C. Honestly, its perfect. Just make sure you have good airflow in your case. I have 2x 120s pulling air in from the front, and a 140 exhaust on the top, and a 120 exhaust at the rear.

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.
