Noctua NH-D15, Premium CPU Cooler with 2X NF-A15 PWM 140mm Fans (Brown)

This thing is huge, but amazingly it fit perfectly inside my case. I was amazed at how well it went in, and it keeps my Core i9 cool as a cucumber. I dont overclock though.. For a stock I9 it is ideal!! I have the Asus X299 UD4 motherboard and the GTX 1060 EVGA graphics card in my machine.

Using with my i7 8700K and I have to say this is an amazing cooler. Temperatures are great under high clock speeds and loads but somehow it always stays quiet. The only downsides are that it can be a pain to get out it in the case, it is so big that it over takes and blocks some RGB, and it is not the easiest install ever (not exceedingly difficult but I wouldnt recommend it for your first build). I would buy this again!

Im using this to cool my Ryzen 9 3950x. Very quiet and the temperatures are 45c idle to 68c in a stress test.

Loving the performance, I am just amazed how quiet and overclockable this cooler is. I have done extensive research before purchasing this or a AIO liquid cooler. I dont like having H2o in my case. So I went with best fan cooling system. Why 4 star? Well, its just huge in a mid tower. This thing is literally kissing my video card heat sink. I almost couldnt install it because its so big. I dont like the size, but I really like the performance.

Sehr leise, einfache Montage

This thing is a beast and is pretty big too. Luckily I got a full tower case. I had an water block before and it was ok, but I do not remember getting such high temps on air before so I went back and got this bad boy. Glad I did because my temps have dropped at most 10c at load. Assembly wasnt except for the fan hangars those were slightly difficult

Installation facile, très efficace.

This is the best CPU Air Cooler out there, but you gotta keep in mind that it really is huge, it is a monster! So make sure the second fan fits with the ram memory you have. I made the mistake not to check, and I now use it with only 1 fan. Dunno how big a difference that makes, but it does make me a little bit sad :( Performancewise and loudness both 5 stars, even with only 1 fan.

Keeping the temperature of my AMD Ryzen 7 5800X in Fractal Design Meshify C - Compact Computer Case around 32C under normal load (browsing and simple coding). I dont hear the fan at all or at least the sound is not noticeable with my central AC is on. Installation was breeze but make sure to attach other cables to the motherboard before fitting the MB into the case as you may not have enough room to reach CPU power sockets in a compact case.

The HSF itself is really nice, but it ended up blocking the PCIe 1 slot on my mobo (I ended up using the NH-U12S instead). Check their website to make sure it wont block yours before buying.
