> 24 hourI was a bit skeptical at first because Ive only ever used liquid cooling systems before but boy this one is a game changer. The fans are so quiet, I can barely hear them. Temperatures are good too; sure not as good as liquid cooling systems but its really good for the low noise levels. Compared to this my previous cooler sounded like a jet engine. Its actually a little annoying because my desktop has no lights and I used to rely on the fan noise to tell me when it had switched off. Now I have to peek around the back to see if the fans have stopped moving so that I can switch off the main power on shutdown :D

> 24 hourThis cpu cooler is large and in charge. Saw significant temperature drops compared to the Corsair H60 AIO that I was using prior. Reasonably quiet, great airflow, it even has adequate RAM clearance under the front radiator. I would 1,000% recommend to anybody considering the purchase.

> 24 hourExcellent product, minus one star for the white serial number on top, but I fix it by removing it with isopropyl alcohol, now it looks better, will update the review after I install it to my system.

> 24 hourUnbedingt großes Gehäuse verwenden, sonst wird es schwer mit den Anschlüssen- Prozessor Pwr usw.

> 24 hourFür mich war es am wichtigsten das der Kühler kühlt und dabei kann ich auf das schöne RGB Schnickschnack verzichten.

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. |
