    What else can I say but it cools the cpu excellently as expected easy mounting and silent!

    Quiet and efficient as advertised, works perfect with my 7700k and 120mm case. I manage to have the CPU at 35C idle/60C under load

    I ordered the Slimmer fans to replace the bigger single one. Now it has push pull with the slimmer fans.

    Es un enfriador muy bueno si no vas a obsecionarte con que tu cpu este con temperaturas bajo cero

    Kühlt besser und leiser als eine Aio Wasserkühlung für 120€

    Preso questo dissipatore perché ne avevo letto bene sulle recensioni, secondo me non ha eguali per prestazione e silenziosità. In passato ho usato altri marchi ma questo BATTE TUTTI. Costa un pò in più della media ma giustificatissimo.

    Great heatsink and fan, well built, sturdy as has decreased my cpu temp dramatically! Can hardly hear it too. Made a huge difference from the Intel stock cooler and even comes with thermal paste which is super helpful. Excellently design and put together with a lot of thought gone in to it.

    Jaurais dû linstaller depuis le début ! Javais opté pour du watercooling avec le H80i GT de Corsair mais les perf nétait résolument pas celle que jai maintenant avec ce ventirad. Et surtout mes oreilles sen portent bien mieux !

    Ho preso questo dissipatore perché quello stock del mio i5 3570k non raffreddava più in maniera ottimale,temperature sempre sui 50 in idle e a volte 80 in full load.Per il mio case Aerocool Xpredator X1 che supporta dissi alti max 158 cm è il top.Le recensioni qui e sui vari siti internet non mentono è davvero straordinario.Imballaggio e accessori di prima qualità davvero non si riesce a trovare una nota negativa.Riguardo alla dissipazione nel mio case ora cè linverno.Temperature in idle sempre sui 29 gradi (tenete conto che ora in estate in camera mia ci sono 20-25 gradi) e in full load arrivo massimo a 60° (testato con 10 giri di ibt).Inoltre se comprate la seconda ventola opzionale riuscite a guadagnare qualche altro grado in più e quindi potete fare anche qualche oc leggero.

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.
