> 24 hourI knew it would be an improvement, but damn. Ive dropped literally 10c from my 120mm AIO under stress tests, and have been able to reduce the voltages for my OC quite a bit. Worth every penny, so stoked.

> 24 hourPicked this cooler up recently to replace my old cooler. I cant recommended this one enough, it gave my system the completed look I was looking for. You get cooling as good or even better then aio coolers without the problems that come with them. The build quality is excellent. I also recommend if you do buy this cooler to get the heatsink covers. They dont boost or impact performance but really complete the look of your system.

> 24 hourIn my previous built I also had NH-D15 but with Noctuas brown fans and believe it or not, but when you make all fans in your case Noctua brown, they look absolutely fantastic. Performance is on pair with even 360 AIOs yes no kidding.

> 24 hourDie weltbekannte Noctua Qualität ist nunmal unerreicht! Ich habe einen gebrauchten CPU-Kühler direkt von Noctua gekauft. Dieser ist von einem neuen nicht zu unterscheiden und wurde in Rekordzeit geliefert!

> 24 hourThe cooling capability alone would be impressive but, combined with the sound-level, is just bonkers. Keeps a 6850k with all cores at 4.1GHz running full tilt on encodes or compiles at ~50C at a sound level that is all but inaudible within a Define R5 unless youre literally ear-to-the-case. Just crazy good.
The NH-D15 chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning flagship model NH-D15 premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven dual-tower heatsink design and NF-A15 PWM fans, it stays true to the NH-D15’s successful formula of rivalling the performance of all-in-one water coolers while maintaining superb quietness of operation. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fans and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 chromax.black is a deluxe choice for both overclockers and silent enthusiasts who seek an elite-class heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

6 heatpipe dual-tower designAs compared to conventional single tower heatsinks, the NH-D15’s fine-tuned six heatpipe dual-tower design provides more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency in dual-fan mode. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua"s premium-class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua"s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high-end RAM modules on the market. In dual-fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard-height RAM (up to 32mm). |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC3 and NA-HC4 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP3 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-D15 chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
