    Confezione del prodotto molto completa ( ma si è comunque pagata) e montaggio molto facile. Nelle prime ore di funzionamento paradossalmente era più rumoroso di adesso. Ora devo dire che quasi non si sente e viste le temperature molto basse durante l’uso della cpu ( I5 serie 3 ) è del tutto superfluo pensare alla seconda ventola ( opzionale). Noctua NH U12S

    Siempre espero unos meses antes de emitir una valoración, pero en este caso sé que no me hace falta. Trabajo mucho con vídeo, y mi procesador sufría bastante con la temperatura... en renderización me llegaba a los 90º fácil, y en reposo siempre rondando los 40/50º. Ha sido un cambio brutal, a la mitad nada menos. En reposo se mantiene fresquito, a unos 20º con picos a veces de 28/30º. En proceso de rendering o sometiendo al PC a un trabajo duro, no pasa de los 55º. Una autentica pasada.

    Best in the market for normal PC setups. Be assured its silent and cooling for a long time.

    I have an AMD 3600 on an Asus motherboard used mainly for 4k video editing and I have not seen the CPU temps above the mid 40s C. It a new system that I have just finished so my results are not exhaustive. I am running a Raid 10 array with a total of 8 harddrives so my case has a fairly high heat load. The cooler fan is almost silent and was super easy to install. Its bigger than the factory supplied fan and has no clearance issues with my low profile ram.

    Simply the best cooling system in teh market, before this I tried the Corsair H75 water colling and was pretty good but the fans were too loud for my build, this cooler system is phenomenal, ultra silent even gaming on ultra settings.

    The included mounting clips werent quite strong enough to retain the fans when I received them in the mail. I managed to make it work for some time, but decided to email Noctua support to see if they had any suggestions.

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.
