    Me tocó que a veces hace un leve ruido como de turbulencia en las láminas del disipador pero luego lo escucho y es molesto. Es metálico el ruido.

    Ho acquistato questo dissipatore ad aria qualche mese fa.Lho montato sul mio pc con Ryzen 7 1800x e dissipa davvero bene il calore della cpu.Il dissipatore è fatto molto bene,è resistente ed ha dei supporti per il montaggio in due posizioni differenti.Naturalmente sono inclusi anche pasta termica,distanziatori e viti.Ventola davvero potente.Il montaggio è davvero semplice e comunque viene fornito di manuale di istruzioni molto dettagliato e in ogni caso cè anche il video nel canale del produttore.Consigliatissimo.

    That thing is big ! and quiet, and drop temp as well. I managed to fit it in my older deepcool case just couple mm below top end. It fix perfectly on to tomahawk max and its really simple to install without taking motherboard out or even removing back panel from case. After preforming couple benchmarks and few games its cooling ryzen5 3600 from over 85° on stock fan to max 70° with noctua on load. Compare to stock its whispering quiet. My gpu and psu are much louder.

    le temperature del mio 1600x non vanno mai oltre i 40 gradi. In uso normale sta sui 24-26. Inoltre il chit già presente per lam4 è molto comodo. (ho comprato una seconda ventola)

    venendo dal corsair H60 liquido devo ammettere che la temperatura su ryzen 1600x si mantiene piacevolmente bassa, raramente arriva sui 48° a pieno regime. Facilissimo da installare.

    I bought this cooler to replace the stock cooler on my AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU. Im not a gamer so the computer is primarily for business software. I built the computer a few months back and it was very noisy. So I decided to replace the two noisiest components, the power supply and the cooler. First I replaced the power supply since that was the louder of the two. I went for “Thermaltake Toughpower GF1 750W 80+ Gold SLI/Crossfire Ready Ultra Quiet 140mm Hydraulic Bearing Smart Zero Fan Full Modular Power Supply 10 Year Warranty PS-TPD-0750FNFAGU-1 “ This is a fantastic PS, absolutely quiet..5 dB till about 60% (i.e. 450 Watts of quiet power). After replacing the PS, the stock cooler noise became even more irritating. I researched a few different coolers, most of which were in $40-50 range but had a little more noise levels. Since I wanted a very quiet one, I decided to go for Noctau brand based on reviews I had read an a few different websites. I selected Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 primarily because it is meant for AM4 processors.. This is a BIG cooler, so I looked up for compatibility with my hardware. Even though my motherboard (Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite) did not show up on the list, I measured the space required for the cooler and found it could easily fit.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility

Standing 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 compatibility

Thanks 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 fan

Recommended 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 compound

Having 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.
