> 24 hourMy Ryzen 3600 was idling 55-70 with the VERY loud stock wraith cooler. The idle temp with the Noctua NH-U12S is 36-50, and its very quiet. I dont have amazing airflow either... case is a Corsair 110Q.

> 24 hourTrès satisfait du niveau de bruit et de lefficacité. Utilisé pour refroidir un Ryzen 7 1700X overclocké à 4 GHz, je le fais tourner à 20% (niveau de bruit TRES faible) puis à 50% quand le proc dépasse les 60° (en jeu) et à 100% sil dépasse 70°. Le proc ne dépasse à peu près jamais les 70 même après plusieurs heures de jeu. A 50%, le niveau de bruit est tout à fait satisfaisant, et il pourrait être à peu près inaudible en utilisation bureautique et avec un processeur non overclocké.

> 24 hourRuidoso, voluminoso y y poco atractivo. EFECTIVO Y DE FÁCIL MONTAJE. Cuando lo desenpaquete tuve miedo de que no entrase en la caja, pero entro justito, y el montaje resultó muy sencillo, incluyendo poner la pasta térmica que trae. Mi procesador HA REDUCIDO DE 93-94°C a un MÁXIMO DE 77°C en las situaciones más exigentes. Contento con la CALIDAD/PRECIO.

> 24 hourThis isn’t the most aesthetically pleasing cooler, but my god it works amazingly well. The fans are silent, as you’d expect from Noctua. Under a moderate load while streaming to Twitch, my Ryzen 5 2600 originally ran at about 75-80 degrees Celsius. This dropped my temperature to peaking at 48 Celsius. Granted, I did purchase another fan and attached it to the other size of the cooler.

> 24 hourDopo avere letto numerose recensioni, e vista le mie precedenti esperienze positive con Noctua, ho deciso di acquistare questo dissipatore. Non so se è un problema del dissipatore che ho ricevuto io in particolare, ma non ho trovato benefici sensibili sulle temperature rispetto al dissipatore Wraith di AM -- fatto salvo la minore rumorosità della ventola.

> 24 hourUsed this for my Ryzen 3600 which made a big difference in idle temp and max temp when stress testing and gaming. but im not fully confident it will handle ryzen 7 or ryzen 9 fully. Anyway the cooler, packaging, content is top notch premium. worth every quid you paid for.

> 24 hourDal montaggio alla piena compatibilità in termini di spazio su alloggi RAM per chi impiega tutto sulla propria motherboard, questo Noctua modello U12S per AM4 (AMD Serie Ryzen) vi farà definitivamente dimenticare dellestetica del Wraith in favore della funzionalità e della durata dei componenti.

> 24 hourOttimo dissipatore, non si sente quasi mai e tiene il mio ryzen 7 1800x in idle a 34 gradi, mentre sotto sforzo arriva a 55.

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. |
