> 3 dayThis cooler works magic with my ryzen 5600g APU and b450 motherboard.... Noctua is perfect air cooler and it is little fragile in edges so be gentle while strapping it to heat sink...

> 3 dayI used the NH-U12S to replace my old cpu air cooler. I ordered it in conjunction with the Corsair ML120 White Led fans. This combination was exactly what Id hoped for. My stress test temperatures dropped from 67C to 59C and cleared my G.Skill Trident Z RGB ram. I couldnt have asked for a better cooler for my needs. I highly recommend.

> 3 dayAcheter pour remplacer un ventirad thermaltake à 20€ qui faisait un bruit sans nom dès lors que je lançais un jeu et qui refroidissait très mal mon processeur. Au repos j’étais à 50 degrés, bref un très mauvais ventirad, je déconseille d’acheter ce model qui est sur Amazon d’ailleurs.

> 3 dayI was hovering near 70C using the AMD wraith prism stock cpu cooler. After installing this bad boy, my temps dropped by over 10C. Glad I got the single tower version since I’m using a Corsair icue 465 rgb midtower atx case. I wanted to install this cpu cooler first to see how much room I was left with near the top of my case and it’s perfect. Now I can add a top fan comfortably next in my tower!

The NH-U12S chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s NH-U12S premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven slim-tower heatsink design and NF-F12 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U12S’s successful formula of fusing excellent cooling performance with superb quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a highly compatible 120mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent case and PCIe 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 most 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 worldwide, the Noctua’s premium-quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned for combining superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation. |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC1 and NA-HC2 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U12S chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
