    Noctua is one of the best CPU cooler available. Very easy to install and very efficent cooling.

    Like many of us PC builders, there is a huge shortage of GPU’s. My PC is running on AMD integrated graphics and I was originally using the stock cooler. Temperatures with that thing would reach 95 degrees and my GPU utilization was around 50% because of it. After installing this lil guy (which was super easy and took like 10 mins max btw) my temperature playing games dropped to 40 degrees, with utilization at 100%-95%!! So so happy with this purchase and I cannot recommend it enough!

    Cosa dire? Il dissipatore fa egregiamente il suo lavoro, le temperature sono scese di circa 10 gradi e il rumore è pari a 0. Noctua è una garanzia e da qualità ai propri prodotti. Se cercate un buon dissipatore ad aria non abbiate dubbi.

    OK, I have recently built 2 new machines, identical spec, with some slight differences in components. On machine 1, the Ryzen 3600 uses an Arctic Freezer 34 eSports Duo whereas on machine 2 I have fitted this Noctua. With no CPU tinkering of any kind, the Freezer cools its CPU by around 5 degrees more than this Noctua, and thats with the fan curve on the Freeezer dialled down somewhat to make it pretty much silent under load. So, when running something like Cinebench on them both, I would day the Noctua is slightly louder as well as not cooling as well - and this Noctua cost nearly double that of the Freezer.

    My goodness, this this is INCREDIBLE. I bought a pre-build back in 2021, this thing came with an i7-9700f, 16GB of RAM, but the main reason I bought it was the GPU, a GIGABYTE RTX 3070. All was well, right?

    Lowers temperatures drastically, was topping over 80 with the stock amd cooler with no overclocking. Installed this and set the auto OC setting on using ryzen master and didn’t get temps over 60 degrees when gaming for over 5 hours.

    Long story short. IMO, Noctua make some of the best CPU air coolers on the market.

    You cant go wrong with a Noctua product, great for a first time builder, low noise, hardware to add another fan. A good pick if you wanna do a little over clocking but nothing too crazy.

    lo ho comperato per raffreddare il mio i9 11900 che sembrava poter funzionare con il dissipatore di serie. Il dissipatore di serie funziona bene se il processore è a riposo o funziona in bassa frequenza. Ho provato a mettere sotto stress il processore e le temperature erano troppo alte per per il dissipatore di serie. Ho ordinato il Noctua e ho portato a valori eccellenti il processore, se ci fosse stato nel case avrei installato anche il modello maggiore ma anche il 12 funziona molto bene. Adesso il processore rende mediamente in calcolo come volevo tenendo una frequenza di 4.8GHz, forse con il dissipatore maggiore avrebbe tenuto frequenze maggiori ma quello che raggiunge fa veramente faville per non lodarlo.

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 compatibility

Standing 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 compatibility

Thanks 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 fan

Recommended 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-customisable

Using 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.
