> 3 dayUsed 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.

> 3 dayDissipatore per CPU, facile da montare molto silenzioso anche ad alte velocità, mi ha abbassato la temperatura di circa 10 gradi rispeto al dissipatore originale.

> 3 dayI recently bought a new CPU and the stock cooler I was using was not adequate. The CPU was reaching 95C under load. Noctua was recommended by a friend so I ordered one to give it a try. Now, the CPU never gets above 75C. It was simple to install and is very quiet. This is by far the best CPU cooler I’ve ever used.

> 3 dayIts ultra quiet, keeps my ryzen 1700x temperatures in the 20s at idle, never touches 50 when stressed. It was easy to install, with clear instructions and a wealth of parts for different configs. This is the one part of my whole system that works above any expectations and without any tinkering after installation. I was just going though the list of parts it took to build it, and realized this noctua cooler is the one Ive never had to think about. Just buy it

Greater than one weekRien quau packaging, ce produit respire la qualité. Je lai installé dans ma nouvelle config mini-itx, son silence est impressionnant et le brassage de lair semble efficace. Je recommande clairement !

> 3 dayI replaced my stock AMD Wraith cooler with this and have seen the temperature on my Ryzen 7 1700 lowered by over 15 C! It fits with comfortable clearance in my somewhat narrow case and the mounting brackets allow for effortless installation. Noctua really is leading the way in PC air cooling systems.

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. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended 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 compoundHaving 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. |
