    Finalmente mi sono deciso a cambiare ventola e dissipatore Intel e devo dire che la mia scelta è ricaduta sul prodotto giusto. Il prodotto che vi arriverà è completo di tutto quello che serve. Purtroppo il montaggio del dissipatore ha richiesto lo smontaggio completo della MB quindi in termini di tempo vi prenderà un po di più dello sperato ma devo dire che alla fine il sistema di montaggio della Noctua è perfetto, non ho incontrato difficoltà, nè impedimenti dovuti agli spazi quasi millimetrici. Avevo dei problemi al vecchio sistema di dissipazione .. oramai il proce viaggiava altissimo sui 80-90... adesso col noctua in idle a 30 e full load 50 ( mentre scrivo la recensionsione dopo 2 settimane dal montaggio adesso è a 33 ....quindi ottimo risultato). Voglio avvertire che ho avuto un marginale problema alla fine dellinstallazione perchè la mia MB Asus rivelava un errore sull alimentazione della ventola in quanto i giri della ventola erano scesi da 1600-1700 a 500-600 e quindi il sistema sospettava un errore. Ho scoperto che invece è proprio una carattersitica del Noctua avere la ventola che gira bassissima in quanto il sistema è molto efficente... se vi succede la stessa cosa dovrete disabilitare la lettura della velocità della ventola o settare la segnalazione dellerrore sotto i 400 giri .... in questo modo non darà più il falso errore al POST del avvio BIOS. Comprate ad occhi chiusi, gran prodotto.

    Im sure no one is surprised, that the quality Noctua brings is insane. Even their packaging is top tier. It is a bit expensive, and I wish the default color wasnt black but I cant hear a single thing and my CPU is always kept cool!

    Im happy enough with this. I dont really notice it, and I think this is one of those things that you buy that you dont really ever want to notice, so its doing a good job. Keeps the PC cool, its quiet, and Im happy.

    I installed this in a friends computer after I installed a corsair water cooler in mine. After 2 years, his computer is still running, mine had its MB short out due to leakage. He wins, I just purchased this cooler and a new MB for me.

    Fantastic upgrade from the stock coolers that come with modern cpus. The cooler is dead silent noctua is the gold standard of fans for a reason, the temps on my system are as followed 40C on idle and below 65C on full load. Super happy with the purchase.

    I tried the NH-D15 first, and was impressed with Noctuas quality of construction and quietness, but it was just too big for my PC case, (despite being a pretty big coolermaster). This meant I had to put my GTX 870 graphics card in a secondary PCI-e slot, further away from the CPU, but that caused a raft of problems, so I returned it and bought this slighty smaller NH-U12S instead.

    I had the Hyper 212 Evo and replaced it with this. Love it as the installation was very easy compared to the 212 Evo. I was also able to use this with no problems with the memory cards as they are high profile. I am using it with the push/pull configuration and the temps are from 27 to low 30s. Very effective. Some complained about the color which does not bother me as I am impressed with its performance.

    Superb CPU cooler, should also be compatible with most motherboards and not block off RAM or PCIe slots.

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.

NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fan

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.

NT-H1 thermal compound

Having received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua"s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.
