    Reading the reviews I was concerned it may not cool enough for overclocking my Ryzen 5 2600. Decided to try it due to the price point. However it’s doing a fantastic job, even with one fan installed (you can add a second) I was able to reach 4.1 ghz on the usual 3.4 ghz CPU and remain under 70°C even at 100% for ten minutes in real world testing. A bonus is the very small if not no noise the fan makes. Only downside is the ugly brown!

    Just works. Do read the directions to orient it properly for your case. Works great in my mini-itx cube w/ front-to-back air flow on my AMD 2600. Very quiet.

    This thing is fantastic. Went from a jet engine to nothing. Temps stay cool and noise level is almost none existent, even maxed out. This company knows how to make fans.

    I ended up just installing the wraithcooler that came with the Ryzen 3 3600 I bought, This is by far the most tedious product I have ever worked with. The design in poor in my opinion, It forces you to take of the fan to mount it (I dont know when they would have just engineered it so those thumb screws arent underneath the fan. Once you get that fan off the IT WONT go back on, Those junk metal clips it gives you only bend when you dont want them to. NEVER AGAIN, This was $60 wasted for Im about to just throw it in the trash. PS My father gifted me this for an early birthday present because I hate stock coolers but this is complete trash. Also I spent 40 minutes trying to make it go on.

    I would say that Noctua has the best quiet fans that you can buy. I like my office to be quiet and no loud fan noises and this fan gives me what I want. Amazing and I had no issues with it.

    Not tape sealed, no thermal paste, no instructions, no backplate. The computer is out of commission even longer now.

    I have purchased various noctua fans. They are no better at cooling than cheaper units but they are very solid and well made.

    Inutile girarci attorno. Il prodotto è veramente un top di gamma in tutto a partire dalla confezione. La dotazione degli accessori è impressionante perchè dai, diciamocelo, in un kit per un dissipatore chi ti da anche un cacciavite a L di 17cm? La fornitura è curata nei minimi dettagli.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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 world-wide, the Noctua"s premium quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned to combine superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation.

NT-H1 thermal compound

Having received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua"s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.
