> 3 dayTengo un i7-9700k (sin OC) y este cooler mantiene buenas temperaturas mientras juego, entre 60° a 75°, su colocacion es bastante simple y su aspecto es de lo mas sobrio y elegante para quien busque tener algo sin tanto RGB.

> 3 dayAwesome while I had it in my system. Quite and keeps the CPU fairly cool. (Ryzen 3900x). Only issue i had was when trying to take it out to swap with a AIO..... somehow the cpu was stuck to it even though it was locked down. No damage done but it was on there.

> 3 dayFinally noctua got the point! Black fans matched with black hs= best looking AND performing heatsinks they have released. Noctua mounting system is as easy as it gets. Temps with oced 8086k are excellent. In a blacked out build it looks the part.

Greater than one weekLike all Noctua products, this is extremely high quality, silent, and works well.

> 3 daySlapped this baby onto a Ryzen 5 5600x, replacing the stock cooler. System is mounted inside a Corsair 5000D Airflow case with 3x120mm intake on front and 3x120mm exhaust on top all at 1300rpm and 26CFM, 0.89 mmH2O. Room ambient ~74F. Idle dropped from 54C down to 32C. Under load dropped from 81C down to 59C. Included quality thermal paste. Easy install. Well constructed. Virtually inaudible. Worth every penny IMHO. If youre shopping for an aftermarket cooler I would strongly suggest you place this one on your short list.

> 3 dayPretty straight forward to install. Comes with an instruction packet as well. This is the second one I bought after i bought one for my brothers build. Noticed the temperature on his CPU was always low and since I was using a stock AMD Prism cooler I decided to upgrade to this one as well.

Greater than one weekThis cooler is great, I bought it to use with my Ryzen 5 3600 that was overheating with the stock cooler. Temps have dropped over 20 degrees and it stays cool under full loads. Only complaint is with the mounting process. The kit itself is high quality, it was just very difficult to get both sides of screws to thread when installing the heat sink.

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. |
