> 3 dayMy 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?

> 3 dayI mean its amazing. This is the slim version. That being said unless you get the big one you are not going to find a better air cooler. Its the best on the market. Super quiet and it dropped my cpu 20 degrees. My old temp with a and stock cooler would hit 95c (my PC is over clocked) now the hottest I have seen it get is 60c

01-11-2024The Wraith Spire is a good cooler, just a little noisy for me since my computer is sitting on the desk right next to me. I have been doing folding and my CPU was hitting 94c. With the NH-U12S I am hitting 88c and the noise levels are much better (with the single fan it comes with). Super easy to install!

Greater than one weekI like the quality of this cooler and the color, as far as noise level its super quiet with the stock fan. I switch it out and put two HD noctua fans on it which at full power sounds like a jet on takeoff, as far as performance goes its amazing. I was able to overclock my CPU from 3.6 to 4.4, and I full torture test the temps never passed 79°C.

Greater than one weekUn peu compliqué à monter proprement (taille importante) avec la back plate, les ailettes et embouts en même temps. C’est quand même un très bon produit une fois en place.
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. |
