> 3 dayEasy to install, just double check the back of your PC for an opening, before you take out the entire motherboard like it did.

Greater than one weekApril 2019: This is pretty good. Water cooled my last rig and was getting excellent results. But this past year, my friend had a leak in his cooling system and hosed his computers guts. Yeah, you bet I got a little scared so I moved back to air cooled. Actually switching back to air didnt matter because I bought a dedicated room air conditioner. For just under $125.00 at Frys it sank the NH-U12S temps below the water cooler temps. Wonderful for cpu based games.

> 3 dayVery great packaging.. High quality.. Very easy to install.. Had around 40 to 50 c on idle sometimes.. After installing noctua im getting 29 to 32 c on idle.. And while playing Cod AW and dota 2 it only went up to 42 max.. Goes around 35 to 41 c... Also forgot to mention that this is very quiet even without low noise adapter. Give it a go!

> 3 daySolved my Intel i7-2600k overheating problem instantly. Had to remove my Asus Sabertooth P67 mobo to install, but had to remove the motherboard anyway because the BIOS battery died and I had to remove the thermal armour from the mobo to replace the battery - was an awful design flaw by Asus for that mobo.

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. |
