> 3 dayLa verdad es que es un buen disipador. Absolutamente silencioso mientras el ventilador no gire a más de 600 rpm. A su velocidad máxima (1500rpm) e incluso pasando de 900 rpm sí hace mucho ruido.La velodidad máxima nunca ha llegado a alcanzarla porque mantiene a raya las temperaturas en mi Ryzen 5 3600.

> 3 dayUsed on a ryzen 5 3600x. Stock cooler idle was around 50 C, now in the 30s. Installation was easier than I expected. I was looking for something that used the am4 stock back plate.

> 3 dayVery easy install, with some of the best thermal past around. Seriously, the fan runs at 800 rpm on Prime 95 at stock. Never gets about 58c on my Ryzen 2600. Rpms at idle 350. You seriously cant hear this thing. Even when rendering in Daz 3d Im unable to hear it spin up. Just a spectacular heatsink and fan. From top to bottom, the engineering on these is so good. If you want one of the best air cooling solutions. Look no further. Did I mention how quiet it was? I have nerve damage in one ear and NOTHING is ever quiet to me. But, this is. Fabulous piece of hardware. I have no regrets at all.

Greater than one weekChe dire? Noctua è sempre una scelta azzeccata per il raffreddamento. Nel mio caso dovevo applicare un raffreddamento tradizionale ad una cpu AMD Ryzen e cercavo una cosa affidabile, silenziosa e versatile. Nella Noctua ho trovato tutto questo, dalla semplicità dellinstallazione, alle spiegazioni estremamente dettagliate alla silenziosità. Articolo consigliato che acquisterò sicuramente in futuro per altre applicazioni.

> 3 dayGreat heatsink, but the fan clips constantly come loose. I have watched videos to verify I am installing the fan correctly; I think that my fan clips are ...slinkier?... than they are supposed to be.

> 3 dayPer me la silenziosità e lefficienza sono più importanti della comodità e dellestetica. Consigliato.

> 3 dayCe ventilateur AM4 est monté sur une AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT et rempli parfaitement son rôle en silence. Jai installé un second ventilateur en push-pull. Cest du Noctua donc les performances sont dun très haut niveau. le cpu atteint 4700 MHz sans soucis avec le mode PBO activé.

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. |
