> 3 dayEasy to install and quiet but doesnt cool any better than the stock cooler that came with the RYZEN 3600 CPU. Temps range from 31C to 60C. Not sure whether to just put the stock cooler back on.

> 3 dayThis product was a complete and utter failure. It didnt keep my CPU cool, and allowed overheating. I had to go and get a different CPU cooler before I could turn my computer on without having it overheat.

> 3 dayI had a temperamental 4 year old Z97 based i7 4790K with a Titan Fenrir cooler which would lockup / crash under hard gaming ( BF1 Ultra settings @ 1440p ) So I decided to fix it .I chose the best Noctua product ( NH-U12S ) that would fit my case ( CM storm ) and in under 30 mins I had the new cooler and fan installed , and Wow !!. My PC is transformed , no more crashes or lockups , its cooler and quieter under load . BF1 now runs in Ultra , 1440p @ 90 - 110 fps totally stable .

> 3 dayComprato per sostituire il dissipatore di serie intel (i7) montato sulla mobo oltre 7 anni fà. A pieno carico ora non supero i 55 gradi, prima ero costretto a tenere il case aperto e comunque raggiungevo temperature da infarto (mi è capitato di leggere 90ºc)

> 3 dayVentilador excelente para mi AMD ryzen 7 3700x. El nivel de ruido y la temperatura de la CPU han mejorado mucho respecto al sistema que trae el propio ryzen. No defrauda.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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. |
