> 24 hourI bought this to replace a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO that was the cheapest option when I first built my PC. This cooler, which was unavailable in 2017, is way better at cooling my CPU and quieter. It would be great if it was $10 cheaper, but its still good at $69.99

> 24 hourIl marchio Noctua si dimostra allaltezza della sua fama per stile, facilità di montaggio rispetto ad altri concorrenti, ed efficacia. Anche la pasta termica in dotazione sembra fare il suo lavoro egregiamente. Sto ancora monitorando le prestazioni del mio Ryzen 5 3600, ma, ad ora non mi sembra di riscontrare problemi.

> 24 hourVery easy to install on my prebuilt PC my prebuilt was getting near 85c on heavy gaming sessions after installing this bad boy even when I’m streaming I get only up 71c so glad I bought this instead of a Expensive AIO.

> 24 hourMuy buen disipador, llevo usando Noctua desde el Pentium 4 socket 478, y se que es sinónimo de calidad. Silencioso, fácil montaje y muy buena temperatura, montado en un Ryzen 3600XT.

> 24 hourI installed this CPU cooler for my first build and it installed without any problems. The instructions were excellent, giving the user the details needed to correctly install the cooler. As far as how well it works, my CPU is being kept around 60 degrees C under heavy gaming. So its definitely doing its job. I like the color too which I think looks better than the tan and brown color of their other model.

> 24 hourIts a good product, just the customer service. Is not good at all. I took me a month and 1 week to get my refund finally back. Overall item is ok. But Service is not good.

> 24 hourThis cooler has been a gift from the gods to my i9 11900f. Even under high loads this keeps the 8 core 16 thread space heater super cool while remaining nice a quiet. Its heat absorption and dissipation has even lowered my overall case temps causing my GPU to also run cooler.
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. |
