> 3 dayI replaced my Corsair water cooler with this guy and its so much quieter and the cooling is the same or cooler. It costs more than a lot of coolers but you get what you pay for. Extremely effective and high quality.

> 3 dayAyant déjà fait lachat de ce modèle pour ma tour, il était naturel que je la recommande pour le montage de celle dun ami. Au niveau du packaging, que ce soit au niveau dAmazon ou de Noctua, tout était bien bloqué.

> 3 dayThe best air cooler ever. Keeps CPU under 65 degrees at full load when playing BF4. I upgraded from a hyper 212. Can never go wrong with A hyper 212 but the Noctua takes the cake.

> 3 dayEn remplacement du ventirad livré avec mon 4790K, la différence est énorme. La conception du produit fait quil est impossible de rater son montage. Japprochais les 100°C (!) je suis désormais sous la barre des 60°C à 100% dutilisation processeur. Indispensable pour qui veut sécuriser sa config.

> 3 dayI have had this heatsink since 2019. At the time of purchase I had an I7 3960x HEDT CPU and my temps never went over 70C. on full load for more than 3 hours of stress tests. Now it is the summer of 2021 I recently upgraded to a AMD 5900X and a ASUS Crosshair VIII Dark Hero with the help from the stimi money.

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. |
