> 3 dayUno dei dissipatori ad aria migliore in circolazione per pc di fascia media. Sebbene la sua grandezza mi ha inizialmente spaventato, svolge il maniera encomiabile il suo lavoro ed il rumore è quasi impercettibile.

> 3 daycarte mère msi x470 gaming plus, ventilo monté sur un ryzen 5 2600x en remplacement du ventilo dorigine. A pleine charge je suis passé de 83° à 61°, et le ventilo ne tourne quà 70% ! Et surtout, aucun bruit cest tellement agréable. Toute la visserie est fournie avec, jai inversé le ventilo comme indiqué dans la doc pour faire un circuit dair entrant et un sortant avec le ventilo du boitier. Top quoi !

Greater than one weekThis product has everything you need and nothing you dont. It comes with mounting hardware specifically for the AMD AM4 CPU socket and no other sockets. It requires the backplate which comes preinstalled on the motherboard, so dont throw that away! Youll need it! It comes with a small tube of thermal paste and a metal decal for the front of the case. Everything you need! Even at full speed the fan is very quiet, especially after you put the side panels on the case.

> 3 dayI use this cooler with my Ryzen 5 1600. Overclocked to 3.8GHz at 1.35v, I saw temperatures drop from 73c on stock cooler to around 61c in Aida64. I briefly OCd to 3.9 at 1.4125v and saw temps at around 64c. Very happy with this cooler.

Greater than one weekNoise and cooling are both big upgrades. But what really stand out is the incredibly easy installation. This completely puts coolermaster to shame. Was finished in less than half the time, AND they included more mounting options.
Continuing the legacy of Noctua’s classic NH-U-series, the NH-U12S has become a benchmark for slim, highly compatible 120mm single tower coolers. The SE-AM4 version is a dedicated special edition for AMD’s AM4/AM5 (Ryzen) platform, featuring the latest SecuFirm2 mounting system for AM4/AM5. Topped off with the renowned quiet NF-F12 PWM 120mm fan, and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S SE-AM4 forms a complete premium-quality solution that combines outstanding performance, superb acoustics and excellent compatibility for AM4/AM5 systems.

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. |
