> 24 hourThis cooler makes my Ryzen run way cooler than with the stock Wraith cooler. If this thing was any taller, I would have to get a bigger case. Easy to install as well.

> 24 hourMontavo il famoso Wraith Prism sul mio Ryzen7 3700x prima di passare a questo Noctua. Diciamo che come minimo le temperature si sono abbassate del 10% ma soprattutto cè stato un enorme vantaggio in silenziosità... che per me era lobiettivo principale da raggiungere!

> 24 hourI 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.

> 24 hourIts a heat pipe cooler. Works fine. Installation is easy with a functional bracket system. No clips means a more secure connection. Dropped temperatures about 10-15C. Cabling is not that great with unneeded sleeves and generally fair workmanship. Sleeve is annoyingly wax impregnated for some reason. I know that these are mass produced but a little more quality control rather then gamer appeal would have been nice.

> 24 hourI bought this cooler after purchasing a Ryzen 7 3700X 8 cores processor because its stock cooler seems to not satisfy the buyers choice. I am really impressed how this device works. I also bought an extra Noctua fan 2.000 RPM Noctua NF-A12x25 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin,120mm, put it as main and changed the stock one on the back side. It works perfect, cooling better than expected. IDLE around 38º-40º C and moving to 60º-65º C when the CPU loading id high. Better than expected. I also put a dust filter for the 2000 RPM main fan. This protect a lot the cooler body from the dirt. The thermal paste as Arctic Silver 5. Great job Noctua!

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. |

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. |
