    Very easy to install in my Fractal Meshify-C case, keeps my ryzen 5 3600 nice and cool on a constant 4.2ghz overclock. idles around 37 degrees celcius, under load barely ever hits 50.

    Dissipatore per CPU, facile da montare molto silenzioso anche ad alte velocità, mi ha abbassato la temperatura di circa 10 gradi rispeto al dissipatore originale.

    ho comprato questo dissipatore perche quello stock che usavo era troppo rumoroso e dopo 1/2 ore di utilizzo del pc il mio r5 3600 raggiungeva gli 85 gradi quindi ho optato per questo dissipatore di noctua.

    I am very impressed with the NH-U12S SE-AM4. Took under 10 mins to put it in and 20 mins using acetone (nothing else worked) to get the AMD tim off. Idle temps are 20c cooler and no fan in my system is making much noise now. With Prime 95 temps are 15c-20c lower and I can barely hear the fan unlike the Stock fan the 1600 came with.

    Looked nice I guess, will never know as they failed to send the correct item I ordered (no AM4 hardware). Stars--. Time to give the Cryorig H5 a try.

    Package came in fast and in good shape. The cooler was very easy and straight forward to install. The slim tower allows perfect clearance for my tall g. Skill ripjaw v 3200mhz c16 ddr4 ram sticks on my msi b450i gaming mini-itx mobo. Although this tower measures 158mm tall, I was able to fit it inside of my thermaltake core v1 case (you have to drill holes in the top acrylic window panel for clearance of the points of the cooling tower though). This cpu cooler keeps my overclocked ryzen 2600 cpu at 29~31 degrees Celsius at idle. I have gotten the cpu up to 4.3ghz at 57 degrees Celsius.

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.
