    Forse sono un fanboy Noctua, ma è innegabile come appena apri la scatola capisci di avere un prodotto premium tra le mani. Inutile anche fare proseliti, Dissipa alla grande ed è strasilenzioso.

    Coolers like this make AIOs obsolete for the majority of enthusiasts. My i7 6700k @ 4.7ghz rarely tops 70°C under load. This cooler is also very quiet, and AM4 compatible for any future CPU upgrades.

    Excellent cooler, and easy installation after watching a YouTube video. Bought to replace a noisy Intel stock cooler. I have a non-OC CPU and I am getting idle temps in the high 20’s (C). Temps don’t crack 60° under load for gaming. Amazing cooler, and much more peace of mind when compared to liquid coolers. Why bother with liquid running around in your PC for -3 degree difference? The future is here and it’s air cooled.

    en su día me tire por un hyper tx3 por que el pc ya lo tenia montado y pensé que un sistema de pin seria mejor la verdad es que es un buen disipador pero estaba hasta los h de lo puñeteros pin cada vez que tenia que cambiar la pasta me cabreaba.

    Solo tardo 4 días en llegar a Bogota, la instalación fue muy fácil, lo compre para reemplazar el wraith prism de AMD por cuestión de ruido y vaya que estoy satisfecho, la temperatura bajo en 8 grados con el ventilador al 40% y son el ventilador al 100% baja hasta 12-14 grados en comparación al anterior

    The installation took 2 minutes. The mounting is just so simple and everything just works. But by far the most impressive thing of all, the fans. OMG using this from my hyper212 Evo I thought meh wouldnt be much of a difference. But when I turned my pc on I was just stunned. I had to put my ear right next to my pc to be able to hear it. Seriously amazing, when it comes to looks the black looks stylish and professional instead of that disgusting brown look that wouldnt match anything. Seriously would recommend! In addition, RAM clearance is spot on. Incredible product! Would buy it again if I had another pc.

    Bin damit sehr zufrieden. Sogar bei warmes Wetter hat der Lüfter mir sehr überrascht. Wir hatten 33 Grad draußen, innen war auch sehr sehr warm auch, ich dachte dass beim Spielen ich um die 80 Grad in der CPU kriegen würde, hat aber die 70 Grad überhaupt nicht berührt. Normalerweise beim Spielen bleibt es immer unter 60 Grad und das ist sehr überraschend, man hört auch sehr wenig davon. Ich habe 4 Chassis-Fans und alles funktioniert prima zusammen so dass der Geräusch überhaupt kein Thema ist.

    When I bought this I didnt realize that the board chose was not compatible. But I sold to friend for his and he saying that it is fantastic

    I have been building custom PCs for over twenty years and absolutely nothing comes close to Noctua quality. Fantastic build, the best mounting system, fan quality, even the packaging is better. Its worth the splurge.

    Cools well but not an easy install. The directions did not match my board even though it stated the fan would. However, I found a way to mount it ok.

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 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 most 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 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-customisable

Using 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.
