> 24 hourUsed on Intel i9-9900KS. I have 2 CPUs on the exact same MBs with this cooler on both. They both OC to 5.1 Ghz on all cores. Great cooler highly recommend. Easy to install.

> 24 hourAfter 3 years of hard work my Thermaltake 360mm CLCs pump gave out. Im very much invested in the Noctua ecosystem with my fans so Im use to the aesthetics. That said, I decided to give their air cooler a shot. I am extremely impressed with the performance. The NH-D15 is considered the best performing air cooler and it lives up to that billing. My setup includes an Intel i7 5820K and its 140W TDP, running a modest overclock of 4.2 GHz with a core voltage of 1.255. The average temp under load is 68C and on idle it is 40C.

> 24 hourThis beast outperforms water coolers. It is huge, make sure your case can handle it. I fit it into my fractal design meshify 2 mid tower with no issues. Super quiet, super cool. 13600k stays around 45 C during gaming. Some credit to a great airflow case but this thing cant be beat.

> 24 hourGreat fan unit although I cant fit both fans on my board but pretty quiet and seem not badly made either to be fair.

Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15"s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15"s superior efficiency. |
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). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
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. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua"s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |
