Noctua NH-U12A chromax.Black, 120mm Single-Tower CPU Cooler (Black)

The mounting brackets Noctua uses makes installation easy. This is the quietest computer Ive ever had and the thermals are fantastic.

replaced a corsaire h100 v2 that was idleing at 80c...this puppy sits at 38c. it saved my system!

Shipping was fast. Once i got the product it was wrapped in an Amazon box, then the original package.

Everything is good but the fans didnt match my build and no options to buy one from Noctua

Replaced my aging AIO and brought my idle temps from 149f to about 90. Whisper quiet, cant even hear it from outside the case. Had to offset one of the fans to clear the ram, and will have to remove the cooler if I want to install more ram (B550 Pro4)

I bought the NH-12A version with the fan cover. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09J8RQD6W/?coliid=IMUU7EVF0S8SY&colid=UCD6HGAMAZMA&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

It is ridiculously quiet, I do not hear the fans at all. It was larger than I thought it would be, that is my fault for not reading the measurements. Make sure you pay attention to where your memory slots are on your board. This now covers two slots on mine but that is OK as I went with x32 GB for 64 GB which is more than enough for what this computer build is meant to do.

In my build I wanted an all air cooling setup with a little breathing room between the GPU and CPU cooler. This meant no D15. Ive been VERY happy with the U12A cooling my 12700k and even if I set the PL1 to 190w constant, I dont break 85c. With Intel standard 125w/190w power limits, it generally doesnt pass 70-75C in Cinebench and the fans dont go over 1600rpm.

Awesome CPU cooler

Puede ser un poco agobiante de instalar si nunca has tenido productos Noctua como es mi caso, ya que en la guía de instalación se ven muchos pasos, pero realmente es muy sencillo, Noctua piensa en todo y eso se agradece mucho, silencioso, eficiente y bonito.
