    I want us bloom this is the best fan that I can get pretty much it’s extremely quiet comes with very good sound dissipator‘s I have it on her duel fan mode right now that’s why I bought the single fan by itself the air induction cooler only came with one and I wanted a really quiet CPU cooler for one the game start playing and it heats up highly recommend it for all things PC But especially your processor unless you got liquid cooling I don’t see anything that compares right now that I’ve used good quality performance and long lasting life. Just built really well so you can take my word for it or not but you’ll see the rest of the reviews pretty much said the same

    Love this CPU Cooler! Pretty quiet, Great Quality, Keeps system pretty cool when in hot ambiant temperatures. With the Ryzen 7 2700x idles around 35c in 28c ambient. And when stress test for about max time on Ryzen Master stays stable around 65c. No overclock done just set to auto. Only thing I dislike is just the color. Should definitely get duo fans for best results.

    This was easy to install into a Micro ATX case (masterbox QL300) onto an Asus Mobo b450m. Theres room for my ram and about .25 of space to the side of the case from the top of the cooler. I use the stock settings to cool my CPU, I dont hear the CPU fan almost never unless Im doing some bench tests. CPU temp idle and low workload (chrome and maybe photoshop) between 38-42c. when I OC and bench test its 68-71ish. My mobo isnt so strong so I just keep everything typically stock. I bought this cooler for potential future proof air cooling.. I need to upgrade my mobo and cpu I have no doubts this cooler will be sufficient for many years, and you can add another cooler for push/pull if desired. People dont like the tan/brown-red look.. but its not that big of a deal when you have a dark window.. still looks clean, they make replacement fans in different colors, Im sticking with stock.

    Its 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

    Reading 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!

    Me mantiene mi procesador a temperaturas por debajo de 65 grados incluso en pruebas multinúcleo de estrés y a un nivel de ruido realmente bajo. No me esperaba unos resultados tan tan buenos, estoy sorprendido para bien con este disipador. Te trae además una muy buena pasta térmica, piezas para montar un ventilador más en su otra cara, una llave para atornillar maciza... Los materiales del producto son de lo mejor, este disipador vale cada euro que he pagado.

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.
