Greater than one weekI use this cooler in my video editing pc. I have i7 5820k processor running at 3.7Ghz and we found it literally impossible to get the processor over heat in anyway what so ever. Its so quiet as well!

> 3 dayWorks well and runs quietly, the hottest my i7 7700k got was around 70 degrees so thats pretty good. One thing I would do is to connect the fan splitter and the count 8 pin before installing

> 3 dayUpgraded to a i9 9900k a little while back. I had a Corsair hi00 v2. It was enough for small bench marks like Aida 64 but running cinebench was out of the question. I would reach 90c in a few seconds with the Corsair cooler. I upgraded to the Noctua D15 because I heard it was the best air cooler around. I was not disappointed. I can run cinebench at a cool 80c (unrelastic test), not to mention its much more quiet than my old liquid setup, and there is less revving. which really made me annoyed with my last setup. Im going to keep this cooler for all my next upgrades and Ill recommend it to anyone who is need of a cooler. Ty!

> 3 dayIt is large. Extremely large. One of the fans bangs into my memory so I cant use it and still get the case closed, but I am getting such good performance that I just left the fan off. The one fan version might have saved me $15 or so. Other motherboards dont have quite this problem, but I changed my mind on my motherboard at the last minute and had already purchased the dual fan version.

> 3 dayKlar die Lüfterkurve muss man anpassen, aber dann hält der Kühler (eine gute Wärmeleitpaste vorausgesetzt) sogar einen 12Kerner unter hörbarem Geräuschpegel, selbst in der Stille der Nacht. (bei ~ <=80°)

> 3 dayVery big but looks and works great. Also quiet even without putting it in the quite mode. Fits in the Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 case perfectly.

> 3 dayThe cooler was extremely quiet and could keep my cpu under perfect Temps while doing benchmarking and it also looks great with all of its pipes and suprisingly good looking fans.

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. |
