09-11-2024Ordered this to replace a 4 year old 120mm water cooler that was no longer quiet - seems it had suffered some loss of liquid over time and was not working well any longer. This unit had great ratings and was supposedly very quiet, so I gave it a shot. Im really glad I did - its basically silent and has kept my CPU cooler than the water cooler ever did. Fit great in my case, didnt touch my corsair memory at all, installation was fairly easy - just had to remember to gently pull on the metal brackets to refit those fans once I was finished mounting the main unit. Id buy this again and will look at using the larger size in my next build with a new CPU soon - not sure they are rated for those newer power hungry potentially hot chips but I sure hope so, this is a very nicely made cooler.

> 3 dayawesome cooler, looks, very nice and is near silent. has performance near their 140mm version but is a much smaller, albeit still large compared to a stock cooler

> 3 dayDer Noctua ersetzt bei mir einen in die Jahre gekommenen Scythe Mugen 2, welcher auch schon ein ganz ordentlicher Kühler ist.

> 3 dayWith parts supplied you can only mount the fan horzontal not vertical. You have to have (1)NM-IMB2 and a (1)NM-IMB3 bracket to do a vertical mount. You also need to grind the corners on one of the brackets to make it fit. The bracket corners bump up against the board heat sink. So the brackets will not lay flat. I used a IC graphine pad on the CPU works good that way, The allow you to put the video card in the #1-16 bits slot with a 28 lane processor.

> 3 dayI couldnt be happier with this purchase. Mounting took a bit of fiddling, but ultimately this was just a great buy.
The NH-U12A is the latest, 5th generation of Noctua’s NH-U12 series of 120mm size premium-quality quiet CPU coolers. Conceived to push the envelope of the 120mm form factor, it combines two of Noctua’s flagship model NF-A12x25 PWM 120mm fans with a completely redesigned heatsink featuring 7 heatpipes and an increased fin surface area for superior heat dissipation. This way, the NH-U12A can rival the performance of many 140mm size coolers while offering 120mm class case and PCIe compatibility. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12A is a deluxe choice that combines top-tier performance with excellent compatibility and outstanding quietness of operation.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibilityStanding 158mm tall, the NH-U12A is short enough to fit most modern mid- or high-end tower cases. Measuring 125mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on most standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups. |
100% RAM compatibility on LGA1700/1200 and AM4/AM5Due to its asymmetric design, the NH-U12A does not overhang the RAM slots on Intel LGA1700 (LGA17xx family)/LGA1200/LGA115x and AMD AM4/AM5 based motherboards, which ensures easy access to the modules and 100% compatibility with tall heat-spreaders. On LGA2066, the rear fan will overhang the RAM slots on the left-hand side of the socket, so RAM modules should not exceed 42mm in height.* |
Dual NF-A12 120mm fansThe NF-A12x25 is a highly optimised next-generation 120mm fan that integrates Noctua’s latest innovations in aerodynamic engineering in order to achieve an unprecedented level of quiet cooling performance. Using this elite-class fan in a push/pull dual fan configuration is one of the cornerstones of the NH-U12A’s commanding performance and acoustic efficiency. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua’s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability. Chosen again and again by overclockers and enthusiast users worldwide, it has established itself as a benchmark for premium-quality thermal compounds. |

* In cases with more than 158mm CPU cooler clearance, the rear fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 42mm.
140mm performance in 120mm size
Thanks to its completely revised 7 heatpipe layout, 37% more fin surface area and a dual fan push/pull configuration that uses the new, state-of-the-art NF-A12x25 fans, the NH-U12A can actually match or even outperform many 140mm sized coolers.
