> 3 dayNoctua tiene fama de ser la mejor marca de ventiladores del mercado. Tanto es así, que se permiten una excéntrica tonalidad de marrón y beige porque saben que lo que importa no es la estética.

> 3 dayReceived the regular old NH-U12S that is not compatible with the AM4 socket/motherboard.

> 3 dayMy Ryzen 5 2600 is sitting at 4.2 Ghz and barely over 65C on load. Most games run at about 60C. The mount might be a bit of a pain for some people but its pretty straight forward.

> 3 dayItem clearly states AM4 compatibility in the title, but did not come with AM4 hardware. Your options are to fill out a form and wait up to two weeks for noctua to send you one for free or just buy it off Amazon.

Greater than one weekApplied to (currently stock speeds) AMD Ryzen 2600 on ASUS X470-Pro in an h500i case. Install was very easy, 15-20 minutes tops. Idle temps dropped from 40-45c with stock cooler to 25-27c. Load temps dropped from 65-70c to 40-45c. Worthy investment.

Greater than one weekI own two machines work with this model and they do their job very well. You hardly even notice they are working.

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. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended 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 compoundHaving 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. |
