> 3 dayI had the CM Hyper 212, but wanted to start overclocking a decent amount. I also wanted something aesthetically pleasing for my all black case. Love this! My temps are 60-70 degrees C with my i5-9600K overclocked to 4.7GHz

> 3 dayEl ventilador de esta unidad de enfriamiento es muy silencioso, difícil que te moleste inclusive en altas velocidades. El enfriador funciona de maravilla, en procesador no excede los 60 grados

> 3 dayle ventilo est ce quil est. Ca fait 20 ANS que je monte des PC de bureaux. Alors pas forcément des PCS gamers plus des PC audiophiles. Cette fois jai eu peur. Jadmets le ventilo cest bien le premier que je voyais un truc a installais de cette manière. Tu te crois avec un accélerateur à particule pour faire HARD

> 3 dayThe product is awesome and looks great and I am happy to have gotten the limited LTT Edition, but the CPU temps I am getting could be better with push/pull fans. But then again, I am running an i7 8700K CPU.

Greater than one weekI used to have a Ryzen 7 1700 running the stock cooler and OC to 3.8GHz, The stock cooler never got stable when running for example Prime95, so when the temps hit 90℃ I stopped the test. Now, no matter how much time I run the stress test the processor goes up to 76℃ and thats it.
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. |
