Noctua NH-D15 chromax.Black, Dual-Tower CPU Cooler (140mm, Black)

this thing is magical, im glad i followed all the advice on reddit and other places. Like legit this thing has lowered my pcs temperature a max by 20 degrees. I ran resident evil 8 at the highest settings my GPU could do and it never passed 54 degrees C (with a Ryzen thats usually like baby graphics games temps)

Ich hatte wie die meisten mittlerweile eine Kompakt Wasserkühlung, meine war eine Corsair Hydro Series H100x CPU-Wasserkühlung.

Install on my AMD Ryzen 9 5950x, I test the stability and temp. performance by video encoding under 3hrs, recorded 2hrs of temp., the max. CPU temp. was 70°C.

I’ve been waiting for an attractive looking high performance cooler for some time now. For the longest of times I was looking at a Bequiet! coolers but Noctua has a good great reputation and from the reviews I saw perform just a bit better. When this black version came out I didn’t want to pass up the opportunity.

This, is one of the best air coolers out there in the market. This cooler from 2014 is really amazing, this is basically the GTX 1080 Ti of coolers. I got this with a 12700k, despite flamethrower intel, it was able to keep the 12700k under 85 during a repeated XMR stress test. While system idle, Ive configured it to stopping spinning its fans. Which meant that it is silent, and it kept it below 40, and below 60 for most games. As for the price, it is pricey, but it goes against AIOs and it has way easier mantaince. Which is why its amazing. Only thing, GET THE BLACK VERSION! Notcua is not the king of looks, but the black version is a good looking cooler. The installation process is a slight pain but I feel in love with securefirm.

This cooler is so thicc your going to wanna buy it yoga pants. If you have rgb lights , this cooler is going to block them puppies because its an absolute unit. 2080ti and an OC 9900kf in a snowblind case. I dont even need the second fan on. And if I put it on, this cooler would take up 1/5th of the space in my PC. Its quiet as can be for the size and my cpu has never held such low Temps under load. I run multiple streams and EFT at the same time, a very cpu heavy game. This CHAD of a cooler laughs in the face of its challengers and is absolutely overkill for my PC but no Ragrets. I went thicc and I cannot go back. If you like absolute units, this is your cooler. If you like having a cpu that struggles to get above 60c under load. This is the cooler for you.

Awesome cooler; BUT on my ASUS ROG STRIX Z590-E the fan rides on top of the DIMM slots, so it sticks up quite a bit. A normal case isnt large enough for this. I went with a Thermaltake View 51 Case. Works perfectly.

Super radiateur

PROs:

This is definitely the best cooler there is, I had a good one before on my i9 9900k, but at 5ghz on the 16 cores it would go up to 95°C if not more, with this cooler it keeps at 60°C under max load, its awesome, it gets to like 35°C under normal load. Awesome product.
