> 3 dayQuel bonheur ce silence, j’avais auparavant le ventirad vendu avec le processeur très bruyant. Relativement facile à monter sur mon ryzen et pas de manque de place.

> 3 dayIts 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.

> 3 dayPurchased this because I was unhappy with the temperatures my R9 3900x was sitting at with the stock Wraith Prism cooler. I couldnt decide between this and the NH-D15 (and D15S variant which is identical but with a single fan for $10 less). Eventually went with this U12S and am quite satisfied. Im sure the D15 would outperform this cooler slightly, but its also quite a bit bulkier and this seems to do just fine cooling a 3900x with Precision Boost Overdrive enabled.

> 3 dayEl producto en color negro es más caro que el color original, pero si quieres que este convine con una estética sobria o en tu gabinete resalta el color negro o tiene RGB, es una buena opción a considerar, también el bloque disipador se siente robusto y se ve que enfría bien porque bajó las temperaturas hasta 10° y con el ventilador casi apagado, también de que apenas hace ruido el ventilador de 120mm con el que viene

> 3 dayBefore, I had a screaming stock cpu cooler that failed to prevent thermal throttling while playing COD MW resulting in dropped frames and a very frustrating online experience. Now my CPU rarely goes above 60C and this thing is completely silent. Couldnt be happier with the purchase.
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. |
