    I upgraded my Cooler Master Evo 212 to Noctua NH-U12S for my i5-4670k 4.0Hz OC. I will never go back to Evo 212 again after I use this cooler. 100 % full load with whispering noise. Cannot be happier.

    I get the same temps with the NH-U12S as I do with the NH-D14 on my Intel Core-i970...and its much smaller and easier to install. Noctuas quality is superb, the hex they provide you with is ALL you need for the entire operation (including MB removal for mounting bracket). Fan color scheme is ...all Noctua classic :)...it could be better, but its Nocuta original...

    Il dissipatore è veramente ben fatto e trasmette una buona sensazione di solidità senza essere però pesante. Non lho ancora montato e quindi non posso dire nulla riguardo al suo funzionamento ma penso che risponderà pienamente alle mie aspettative. Brava Noctua, come sempre fa ottimi prodotti

    Usato per raffreddare un i5 7600k con uso normale (non ancora l’overclock) la temperatura arrivata ad un massimo di 45 gradi.(22 gradi temperatura del ambient Ho usato la pasta inclusa nella confezione. Al interno c’è solo 1 ventola e gli accessori per un’altra ventola. Il fissaggio e molto stabile e sicuro. Consiglio questo prodotto

    Devo ammettere che non sono abituato a spingere l limite il processore, di conseguenza non so dire quale sia il risultato in condizioni critiche.

    1st off just wanted to state that the compatibility of the nh-u12s is outstanding. 2nd the installation is quick and easy.Literally took me maybe 30 min.

    Ho preso questo dissipatore perché quello stock del mio i5 3570k non raffreddava più in maniera ottimale,temperature sempre sui 50 in idle e a volte 80 in full load.Per il mio case Aerocool Xpredator X1 che supporta dissi alti max 158 cm è il top.Le recensioni qui e sui vari siti internet non mentono è davvero straordinario.Imballaggio e accessori di prima qualità davvero non si riesce a trovare una nota negativa.Riguardo alla dissipazione nel mio case ora cè linverno.Temperature in idle sempre sui 29 gradi (tenete conto che ora in estate in camera mia ci sono 20-25 gradi) e in full load arrivo massimo a 60° (testato con 10 giri di ibt).Inoltre se comprate la seconda ventola opzionale riuscite a guadagnare qualche altro grado in più e quindi potete fare anche qualche oc leggero.

    Vorher hatte ich eine Wasserkühlung. Jetzt diesen Lüfter. Der Geräuschpegel ist gesunken. Es gibt etwas mehr Abwärme. Ich bin sehr zufrieden.

    This fancooler CPU is very efficient and also has a great advantage: it is SUPER QUIET!!. Other pro for this device is that it is very easy to install, even for people with little knowledge rookies. The instructions are clear and no room for doubt. No heavy, its size is not excessive and therefore does not interfere with memory modules.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility

Standing 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 standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups.

100% RAM compatibility

Thanks 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.

Recommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts world-wide, the Noctua"s premium quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned to combine superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation.
