> 3 dayEs feo y grande, pero cumple su función, el mejor disipador por aire que puedes comprar si vas a hacer un OC moderado. El montaje es sencillo y el micro procesador me lo mantiene a 45-50° con OC.

> 3 dayThis guy is just a solid product that does what its supposed to do and does it very well. It took a Ryzen 5 5600X from 36 to 40 C at idle down to 26 C (a warm Spring afternoon). It went from 96 to 108 C under extreme load down to 56 to 58 C.

> 3 dayVolevo cambiare il dissipatore stock su un Ryzen 5 2600 per il fastidioso rumore e la scarsa efficienza. Mi sono fidato di Noctua perché è uno dei pochi casi in cui il marchio corrisponde effettivamente a una qualità che vale il maggior costo, e non sono rimasto deluso.

> 3 dayFor anything hotter than a 5600x you should probably get a bigger cooler.

> 3 dayEasy to install, works perfectly with AM4 socket as expected. Keeps my 5600x cool and quiet no problem.

> 3 dayReally happy with purchase. I got it for my 2700X when the stock cooler started making funny noises , and couldnt be happier. Much quieter, more consistent, and significant reduction in temps (Prime95 running at 65C at 4.0GHz vs 75C at 3.9GHz on stock)

Greater than one weekPurtroppo tutto fila liscio fino allinstallazione delle staffe ma quando poso il dissipatore le due viti laterali non riescono ad agganciarsi ai perni delle staffe sottostanti.. girano a vuoto senza presa.. come se il mio processore fosse troppo spesso per permettere laggancio.. al massimo prende una ma poi la controlaterale non si avvita...

Greater than one weekI thought the stock cooler would be fine, Ryzen 5. Was running at 50C at idle. 75-80C when playing Cities Skylines. From research this seemed to within specs. However I decided to install this to help with longevity. Now CPU temps are 30-35C idle and 55C with the same game running.

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. |
