Greater than one weekWorks great. Much easier to install than other tower air coolers Ive used. Just follow the included directions and dont put too much thermal paste and youre set. Postal service lost my package and it took me an extra week to get this but not Amazons fault so no stars taken off.

> 3 dayWhat can I say. It’s Noctua. It performs within 1-2 degrees of a D15. But much smaller. So it has great case/video card/ram clearance. Still extremely beefy. Added heat pipes, denser radiator. The best fans. All make this one of the best air coolers available.

09-11-2024I recently purchased an NR200 case and using the wraith cooler, felt my CPU temps were not sufficient. Look up reviews and decided to bite the bullet with this tower cooler. Temps dropped more then 10 degrees and it is very quiet on light/medium loads. Definitely paid a premium for black but I am extremely pleased with this cooler.

> 3 dayWhile not as flashy as the AMD Wraith Prism, this Fan really lived up to the hype. Reason I upgraded was I was annoyed by the constant throttling of the wraith fan which would keep my AMD Ryzen 9 3900X below 58 C, I just got tired of the constant fan throttling since my case sits on my desk. I tried to adjust the fan curves in BIOS but that didnt help. Wraith prism was just an adequate design that did its job. It thought about water coolers, but never dealt with them before and was not ready to commit to that, which would be a bit more work to setup. After reading the reviews, I thought Id give this a try and go from there.

> 3 dayHave had no problem cooling my Ryzen 7700X CPU with light overclocking enabled. Experimented with ASUS AI overclocking and manual overclocking and it had no issues cooling the CPU with either enabled. Havent seen temps go above 80 degrees no matter what gaming or real world tasks I have done. I really like the fact that it is a realtively smaller dual tower air cooler so doesnt look too massive compared to a NH-D15, but still has excellent performance.

> 3 dayNoctua a réussi à descendre de 15-20 degré les température du processeur. Je vous le recommande. Vérifier que votre case à moins 160mm de profondeur pour la compatibilité.

> 3 dayIf youre considering this fan, then you probably already know of Noctuas stellar reputation. This is now the second CPU cooler of bought of theirs, and Ive also bought several models of their case fans in the past, all to great success.

> 3 dayI picked this up to replace a msi coreliquid aio that failed on me after only 3 weeks. With that being the 2nd aio to bite it for me I decided to give air cooling a try and read a ton of good reviews about the u12a, and boy did it live up to them.

Greater than one weekVery nice fan. It does not low at all and my whole set up is very silent. It is amazing. I am new to build a pc so it does take me a while to set it up. I would recommend you guys to watch tutorial on YouTube if you are a newbie on building pc like me.

> 3 daySwitched over from a hyper 212 Evo and my temps dropped by about 10-11c, at idle Im around 32-35c. Im using an Asus tuf x570 gaming plus wifi and a Lian LI lancool II mesh so theres no clearance issues. Absolutely loving the look of it!
