> 3 daythis is just a few degrees hotter than my H110i GTX. its a little bit louder too, but it doesnt have any real points of failure, like a liquid system does. a very good buy, as is expected with noctua.

Greater than one weekEste disipador es una bestia en tamaño contenido. No es muy alto y entra en la mayoría de cajas y no ocupa espacio de los bancos de memoria.

> 3 dayI love this cooler. It looks amazing being all black. I was really easy to install it also. I thought there was going to be a clearance issue with the power delivery side but with the spacers it was perfect, also was afraid the side of the case wouldnt fit but it cleared with a few mm of space. My cpu is running in the high 40s now and before with stock was in the 60s. Got some cabel extensions coming soon and everything is going to look great. Definitely worth the buy.

> 3 dayReplaced my liquid cooler with this bad boy and had serious results. This fan is BARELY audible for all the work it does. Keeps me between 35 and 75c no matter what I run. My next rig will include some version of a Noctua fan. Excellent purchase!

> 3 dayBuilt my first PC last fall after watching every possible youtube video, reading every blog, and scouring websites for parts availability. After spending a significant amount of money on my setup, I figured I could get by with using the stock cooler on the Ryzen 5 5600x. After booting up Warzone, my CPU temps were in the 90s. While Ill admit Im somewhat new to this and likely dont have fan curves optimized, hearing my stock cooler crank to the max and see my temps so high was alarming to me.

> 3 dayI installed this on a MSI MPG Gaming Edge Wifi B550 with a 5600x inside a Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact and I have never once heard the pc fans actually spin up even under heavy load gaming (Max Settings at 3440x1440 144hz)

The NH-U12S chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s NH-U12S premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven slim-tower heatsink design and NF-F12 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U12S’s successful formula of fusing excellent cooling performance with superb quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a highly compatible 120mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent case and PCIe compatibilityStanding 158mm tall, the NH-U12S 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 compatibilityThanks to its slim design with only 45mm fin depth, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and ensures 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts worldwide, the Noctua’s premium-quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned for combining superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation. |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC1 and NA-HC2 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U12S chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
