Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4, Premium CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Brown)

Easily the best 120mm tower fan cooler out their. Easy installation for the experienced, very high quality, dead silent even at moderate speeds, and has provisions for an additional fan. Does not interfere with ram at all on pretty much any standard motherboard. This is as big as I will go for air cooling, as it weighs over 800 grams which is more than the recommended amount by AMD and Intel socket retention systems. Anything more can stress the board and moving the computer with larger tower coolers is a big no-no (even Noctua acknowledges this). Has tons of headroom for my overclocked Ryzen 2600. Unless you are doing some extreme overclocking on the higher-end chips, you dont need anything more.

Très facile à monter.

Bought this when I built my new computer. It is nice and quiet. love it.

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!

Paired with my Ryzen 5 1600, I get really low temps even with an OC, and the installation instructions/materials were easy to use and understand.Great Product!

single fan noctua ippc 2000 horizontal. ryzen 1700 oced [email protected]. idle 31c, prime95 70c (constant) 72c spike.arctic mx4 tim. Water is for plebs. I can do 4.0 at 1.42v but it idles at 35c, prime95 76c (constant) spike 80c. not worth the extra 100mhz. Im considering stepping back down to 3.8@ 1.15v. which is probably what im going to do.

I ordered this twice, and both times it came without the am4 adapter. I ordered the adapter with it the second time and it fit right in. Support insisted the adapter was in the box, but of the three included that wasnt one of them.

Its a quiet fan

Nice quite fan, has great hard ware plus great packaging for the hardware, easy to install (given you dont put the mount brackets upside down first even though it clearly says this side up) seems to be doing good with all initial testing. Will full out another review once I start overclocking and playing video games.

Abbinato ad un Ryzen 5 1600, sono rimasto stupefatto dalle prestazioni di questo dissipatore. Premesso che ho una casa fredda e un case con 4 ventole, in idle la temperatura del processo si aggira sui 27/28 °C, giocando a Battlefield 1 la temperatura massima è stata 38 °C. Effettuando uno stress test sul processore ho raggiunto al massimo 44 °C. Con questi risultati penso che cè un bel margine per loverclock e anche per un utilizzo intensivo durante lestate. La ventola è molto silenziosa alle velocità basse, alle velocità alte non lho testato perché il processore non voleva scaldarsi. Il montaggio è molto semplice, io ho visto semplicemente un video tutorial sul sito della Noctua. Le dimensioni del dissipatore sono tali da non invadere lo spazio sovrastante le Ram per cui piena compatibilità con qualsiasi Ram. Attenzione alla larghezza del case, è a abbastanza alto il dissipatore.
