> 3 dayI cant even hear the fan and my Ryzen 2600 never peaks over 65*C, even with a low fan curve.

> 3 dayI am very impressed with the NH-U12S SE-AM4. Took under 10 mins to put it in and 20 mins using acetone (nothing else worked) to get the AMD tim off. Idle temps are 20c cooler and no fan in my system is making much noise now. With Prime 95 temps are 15c-20c lower and I can barely hear the fan unlike the Stock fan the 1600 came with.

> 3 dayQuando si tratta di dissipatori per CPU, la qualità e lefficienza sono due fattori fondamentali da tenere in considerazione. Il dissipatore Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 è unopzione che non delude affatto, offrendo un incredibile rapporto qualità-prezzo e una qualità eccezionale delle ventole Noctua.

> 3 dayMy PC came from CyberPowerPC (who I would never do business with again after some truly horrible customer service and two repairs) and likely either had a poorly installed or poor quality heatsink, or both, but installing this Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 has instantly knocked 20 degrees from my CPU temps (Ryzen 7 2700x). I wouldnt expect these kind of results in most builds, but have to say Im extremely pleased with the outcome on mine.

Greater than one weekCon questo dissipatore ho finalmente risolto il surriscaldamento del mio Ryzen 2700X in overclock a 4.20 mhz. Lho sostituito ad un Arctic 13 CO che purtroppo non era sufficiente e mi obbligava ad usare solo la frequenza base del processore di 3,7. Semplice da installare (attenzione allaltezza e a come orientarlo) ha in dotazione anche lhardware per montare una seconda ventola da 120.

> 3 dayEl procesador AMD 3700X venía con su propio sistema de refrigeración, pero el ruido no era aceptable para mi, con este consigo un funcionamiento silencioso dentro de un margen aceptable de temperatura.

> 3 dayNoctua makes great quality coolers. Im not a big fan of AIO coolers and this keeps my cpu in the 45c range when gaming with a slight OC. more then enough for the average user, a NH- D15 cooler would be standard if you are looking to push your OC further.

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. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended 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 compoundHaving 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. |
