Greater than one weekSuper high quality product and lowered the temps on an upgraded processor far beyond anything the stock cooler could hope to do. Great product at a fair price.

> 3 dayGreat heatsink and fan combo. Solid Design. Reduced my CPU temps from the stock intel heatsink and fan by 20 degrees celsius. It is also very quiet. Highly recommended.

> 3 dayThis is a Noctua CPU cooler. Enough said. If anyone else needs convincing, this cooler is enough to cool a Ryzen 5900X cool without the extra bulk of another tower, so whatever else you want to throw at it short of a Threadripper or Xeon will not be a problem, and this model only has a singular fan. The stock 120mm Noctua fans runs extremely quiet, and chances are your case fans and GPU will produce more noise than it.

Greater than one weekCame from a Cooler Master CPU cooler to this noctua, I should have come here to begin with. This cooler is a real performer and is well worth the price. The fan is super quite and can be even more silent if you use the LNA included with it. Highly recommend

> 3 dayLo instale en mi pc, y la temperatura no pasa de 48 grados celcius jugando, tengo un i7 4790k no tiene oveclock pero aun asi es muy silencioso y en mis preferencias me es mejor un enfriamiento por aire, que liquido ampliamente recomendado

> 3 dayHo altri dissipatori a torre della Arctic (Freezer pro 13 etc.) e non mi sono trovato male...ma per il nuovo I7 4790K non ho voluto rischiare e, dopo valutazioni varie, ho optato per questo bellissimo ed elegante dissipatore.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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. |
