    This thing is amazing! My AIO watercooler died after only 3 years of light use so I decided to go back to air cooling. Figured I may as well go for the best that money can buy according to reviews. Installation was the fastest of all my previous coolers. I was honestly surprised to see my peak gaming temperature at 55C instead of 60+ which is where Ive been the past year on my AIO water cooler. AND on top of that, my fans are much quieter than Ive heard them in nearly a decade. Im not even using the low noise adapter and I can barely tell my PC is running. Im only hearing my 5 case fans while idle and its much quieter than ever with less random revving up the RPMs. I think I may just buy this brand going forward as its worth the extra money.

    Paired with my Ryzen 5 1600, I get really low temps even with an OC, and the installation instructions/materials were easy to use and understand.Great Product!

    Fácil de montar y con estos calores un ryzen 5 lo mantiene a 30° y con test de estrés no pasa de 60°. Vale el precio que pagas.

    Noctua non ha bisogno di presentazioni, i suoi prodotti sono semplicemente i migliori sulla piazza. Purtroppo ho dovuto rendere questo modello perché ha solo gli attacchi AM4 e ho deciso di tornare ad Intel causa gravi problemi che ho riscontrato sulle nuove piattaforme AMD, in particolare sul chipset della scheda madre.

    This cooler is well worth the money. I overclocked my Ryzen7 1700 to 3.7GHz, at 1.26v. At those settings, it would peak at about 70c, while running Prime95 small FFTS, with an ambient temperature of 30C(86f). It idles at around 40C. It was peaking at 73C, at stock clocks, with the Wraith Spire RGB. The fit and finish is also excellent. It feels great to get what you pay for.

    Ive had this CPU cooler for 11 months now and I am very happy with it. It is absolutely silent, unless I open the case and put my ear close to it. It keeps my Ryzen 7 2700 at 29-31 degrees Celsius at idle and at about 38-42 degrees when playing high demanding games. Great product!

    Prodotto che vale ogni centesimo speso, è estremamente facile da montare e assai performante. Consiglio lacquisto di una ventola supplementare da aggiungere al dissipatore, temperature davvero basse e ventole che girano piano e tranquille di conseguenza. Nella scatola cè tutto loccorrente, dagli adattatori per la seconda ventola, alla pasta termica di ottima qualità.

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.
