> 3 dayfantastic product, really easy to install (my BeQuiet one beforehand was a total pain to install) - and it runs cooler and quieter than the heavy older bequiet one. Worth the extra cost I think (note am running an Ivy Bridge I7, not overclocked)

> 3 dayperformante e silenzioso, un tantino ingombrante... dipende dalle schede madri.Inoltre la ventola fornita utilizza la tecnologia PWM, permettendo di automatizzare la gestione della rumorosità e della portata d’aria in base alla temperatura della CPU.

> 3 dayItem came nicely packaged. If you do not intends to go to the close loop water cooler trend, this is one product I would highly recommend. It is quiet, efficient and looks good too.

Greater than one weekIch bestellte den Noctua NH-U12S über Amazon direkt von Noctua als B-Ware, welche in der Artikelbeschreibung als sehr gut qualifiziert war vom Verkäufer. Angekommen ist es mit an den Ecken zerdrückter Artikelverpackung, was aber keinesfalls weder die Transportsicherheit noch meine Meinung über das Produkt beeinträchtigt. Denn der Kühler selbst war in einem einwandfreien, neuwertigen Zustand. Mit dabei war unzähliges Zubehör und Montierungskits für AMD- und Intel-Mainboards. Ich bin rundum sehr zufrieden. Nach der Montage und Verwendung der mitgelieferten Wärmeleitpaste sind meine CPU-Temps um rund 10 Grad gesunken. Zuvor verwendete ich den AMD Wraith Prism mit der bereits installierten Wärmeleitpaste. Der Kühler von AMD war nicht schlecht, aber trotz unzähliger Änderung der Lüfterkurve und sehr guter Gehäuse-Durchlüftung konnte ich die Temperaturschwankungen und Geräuschpegel des Kühlers nicht in den Griff kriegen. Jetzt ist alles super, höre nichts mehr und keine Temperaturschwankungen mehr. Meine CPU ist die Ryzen 7 2700X ohne OC.

> 3 dayI replaced all the stock fans in my case and my stock CPU cooler. My first impression was this is a lot quieter. The processor appears cooler but I didnt record good numbers before I change the CPU cooler. My gut feeling is about 15c cooler. What I have noticed is (1) that my computer seems faster; supporting my belief that the processor was throttling and (2) Ive noticed that the air coming out he back of my case feels warmer. These observations indicate that the stock cooler was doing very little cooling and the processor was simply avoiding getting warm by slowing itself down a lot. Im done with stock coolers and am now a Noctua fan. (No really, that pun wasnt intended but once I saw it, I decided to keep it.)

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. |
