> 3 dayDie Kühlleistung passt bisher und die Montage war sehr einfach. Alles ist sehr durchdacht, das kenne ich von anderen Kühlern nicht so.

Greater than one weekMassive fan but super quite and it does an amazing job. I run high 30s-low 40s on standard load, only hit low 60s under 100% load. i7-7700k

> 3 dayIt may be pricey, but I give you my honest review, this Cooler is definitely a must-have if you dont want to use liquid cooling, theres a review a comparison between Noctua NH-D15 vs Liquid cooling based on the video, Noctua NH-D15 performs close to any liquid cooling.

> 3 dayHad one of these fans installed in every machine Ive built recently - quiet, efficient and do a good job of cooling.

> 3 dayFacile da installare, silenzioso anche se ha due enormi ventole e rende il pc molto più fresco rispetto ad altri dissipatori. Il miglior dissipatore ad aria sul mercato.

> 3 dayDidn’t come with instructions or mounting brackets for LGA 1700 which the description explicitly says that it did. I had to buy a separate bracket. I’d taken the day off work to build and enjoy the new pc, this wasted my time and I’m not very happy.

> 3 dayThe HSF itself is really nice, but it ended up blocking the PCIe 1 slot on my mobo (I ended up using the NH-U12S instead). Check their website to make sure it wont block yours before buying.

> 3 dayIf you have the room, would recommend it! Removed a liquid cooler system and installed this, the difference in noise alone is amazing. Very quiet, was able to close up case and shut the door, still maintains same temperatures,,,even cooler most of the time. Well packaged and includes everything you need to install, including long arm screwdriver and thermal paste.

> 3 dayIt seemed this was top of the line for air cooling and I didnt want to spend a lot on a water cooled setup.
Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua’s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14’s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.

Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15"s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15"s superior efficiency. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high end RAM modules on the market. In dual fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard height RAM (up to 32mm). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua"s premium class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua"s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua"s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |
