> 3 dayWorks wonders. Using it with a 1700x. Installation was relatively painless, and it keeps my system both cool and quiet. A bit expensive for an air cooler, but this is one of the best. Quite small as well, so you probably wont run any issues with RAM clearance.

Greater than one weekCertainly one of the best coolers on the market. Its keeping an R7 1700 (3.8GHz on 1.368v) idling at 30-35C and 60-70C under load (25C room temp). Bear in mind, I added a second fan from a previous build to the heatsink which improved performance substantially.

Greater than one weekvenendo dal corsair H60 liquido devo ammettere che la temperatura su ryzen 1600x si mantiene piacevolmente bassa, raramente arriva sui 48° a pieno regime. Facilissimo da installare.

> 3 dayTanto 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

> 3 dayI am so happy i follower my instinct and trust the reviews. I got the se m4 single fan version. My processor, a ryzen 5 3600 came with the stealth cooler, and I was not happy with the results. I was in the 60-70 degree range pretty much all the time. As soon as I installed this new fan/heatsink, my temps dropped to the 30s and worst case in the high 40s

> 3 dayReading the reviews I was concerned it may not cool enough for overclocking my Ryzen 5 2600. Decided to try it due to the price point. However it’s doing a fantastic job, even with one fan installed (you can add a second) I was able to reach 4.1 ghz on the usual 3.4 ghz CPU and remain under 70°C even at 100% for ten minutes in real world testing. A bonus is the very small if not no noise the fan makes. Only downside is the ugly brown!

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. |
