    I was sick of the controller on my corsair watercooler constantly malfunctioning. I decided to roll-back to something less touchy, and Noctua does this the best. I dont OC, so my 1700x runs just fine at basically zero noise with this thing. Quite the departure from the malfunctioning corsair cooler that would ramp up pump and fans at random when the controller kept falling over.

    No hace apenas ruido, es muy fácil de montar, y no da ningún problema si la caja es lo suficientemente grande. Yo lo tengo con un 1800x y va perfecto

    Volevo cambiare il dissipatore stock su un Ryzen 5 2600 per il fastidioso rumore e la scarsa efficienza. Mi sono fidato di Noctua perché è uno dei pochi casi in cui il marchio corrisponde effettivamente a una qualità che vale il maggior costo, e non sono rimasto deluso.

    Tanto el abanico como el disipador y el componente termico son de primera calidad. Deben tener cuidado la altura del producto y el espacio que tiene en su Case

    This cooler makes my Ryzen run way cooler than with the stock Wraith cooler. If this thing was any taller, I would have to get a bigger case. Easy to install as well.

    Used this to replace a stock cooler - this is so much more effective and quieter - the previous fan would sound like a jet engine with minimal increases in the CPU load.

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.

NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fan

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.

NT-H1 thermal compound

Having 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.
