    Noctua es posiblemente la referencia a seguir ,excelente presentacion, acabados y construccion y lo mas importante es que la temperatura me ha bajado de 10 a 15 grados menos con todo lo que ello representa, recomendable al 100%

    Under sustained stress--all cores at max utilization for at least 10 minutes using the CPU-Z stress test--this cooler keeps my AMD Ryzen 7 5800X under 80C. The motherboard is an ASUS PRIME X570-PRO and the case is a Lian Li LANCOOL 205 White Mid-Tower. There are 4 Corsair 120 mm case fans, two pulling in cold air from the front and two exhausting warm air through the top. The install process and mounting process could not have been easier and I would recommend this cooler to anyone with a Ryzen CPU.

    El disipador va muy bien. Llevo tiempo montando Noctua en los PC y siempre cumplen, reduciendo las temperaturas unos 10 grados aproximadamente.

    Bonjour, acheté au prix de 60€, je ne regrette pas. Javais déjà entendu parlé de Noctua, cétait la première fois que jen prenais un. Pour commencer, lemballage a certainement été travailler car il est simple et clair; le ventirad est séparé des autres pièces, les plaques de fixation sont séparé de la pâte thermique... cest rangé par catégorie, jai apprécié. Concernant linstallation, simple au possible, pas la peine denlevé la plaque a larrière de la carte mère, lisez le manuel, il ma été facile de le comprendre même sans connaissance. Faites très attention a la manière dont vous placez le ventirad, cest simple mais je me suis trompé, il faut le placer après avoir mis de la pâte thermique, qui est je trouve de très bonne qualité. La pâte thermique doit être déposé au milieu, ne pas hésiter a en mettre et faire bien sur attention a ne pas trop en mettre. Cest une question dimagination, dites-vous que le ventirad va répartir la pâte thermique. Le ventilateur doit être positionné de façon a ce que le ventilateur souffle au travers du radiateur et vers un ventilateur du boitier qui aspire lair, plus clairement, dans mon cas, le ventilateur du radiateur aspire lair des ventilateurs boitiers qui sont a lavant, il souffle en direction du radiateur, lair traverse, refroidie et sort du coté opposé au ventilateur du radiateur puis est aspiré par un ventilateur boitier qui est à larrière, cest de la physique, logique. Concernant la qualité... top! Processeur Ryzen 7 1700x refroifie entre 40/45. Pour exemple, GTA 5 après 2 heures de jeux nas pas fais bouger la température!!!! Cest excellent! Je tiens a préciser que sur le Ryzen 7 1700x que jai, jai un bug de température, il est affiché 60° alors quil est a 40°, cest normale. Cest a cause dAMD, regardez sur internet, il faut enlever 20° pour avoir la vraie température. Justement, cette fausse température influe sur le bruit, le ventilateur tourne vite et ça fait du bruit, léger dans un boitier Phanteks P400s. Quand ce bug sera corrigé, il ny aura plus ce bruit. Je suis satisfait.

    My Ryzen 3600 was idling 55-70 with the VERY loud stock wraith cooler. The idle temp with the Noctua NH-U12S is 36-50, and its very quiet. I dont have amazing airflow either... case is a Corsair 110Q.

    Ive always wanted a Noctua cooler. Saw so many great reviews. My build is all Bequiet. Case and fans. Was gonna get the Dark Rock Pro 4 but the size and installation looked odd.

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.
