Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4, Premium CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Brown)

Used on my new main board, Temps are great, so quiet.

Ottimo prodotto, dissipazione eccellente su rayzen 5. Livello di rumore ventola impercetttibile su carico medio del processore.

I was looking for a better cooler for my new Gen 3 Ryzen chip. It was running almost 80C during games on the included wraith cooler and I just wasnt going to have that. Ive had good luck with temps from aftermarket coolers from CoolerMaster in the past (the hyper 212 line) but my god the installation was always rage-inducing. Seriously. Installing those things will make you hate your life and re-examine all of the choices you made in your life that led up to that point.

I bought this cooler to replace the stock cooler on my AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU. Im not a gamer so the computer is primarily for business software. I built the computer a few months back and it was very noisy. So I decided to replace the two noisiest components, the power supply and the cooler. First I replaced the power supply since that was the louder of the two. I went for “Thermaltake Toughpower GF1 750W 80+ Gold SLI/Crossfire Ready Ultra Quiet 140mm Hydraulic Bearing Smart Zero Fan Full Modular Power Supply 10 Year Warranty PS-TPD-0750FNFAGU-1 “ This is a fantastic PS, absolutely quiet..5 dB till about 60% (i.e. 450 Watts of quiet power). After replacing the PS, the stock cooler noise became even more irritating. I researched a few different coolers, most of which were in $40-50 range but had a little more noise levels. Since I wanted a very quiet one, I decided to go for Noctau brand based on reviews I had read an a few different websites. I selected Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 primarily because it is meant for AM4 processors.. This is a BIG cooler, so I looked up for compatibility with my hardware. Even though my motherboard (Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite) did not show up on the list, I measured the space required for the cooler and found it could easily fit.

Great product!

This is the easiest aftermarket cooler install I have every done. It just screws into place. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Never during the process did I feel lost or unsure of what to do next. This is the complete opposite of my experience installing a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo on my dads work machine a week after I built my computer with the Noctua. Yes the Evo is a lot cheaper, but I am willing to pay for this convenience. The other coolers Ive installed from years ago (a Cooler Master V8 and Prolimatech Megahalem) were also not as easy.

Cosaltro dire se non uno dei migliori dissipatori ad aria in circolazione?

Installation instructions were crystal clear but when it comes to the springs for mounting with the screws, I had quite a bit of trouble with it. Overall, still a great product.

This product has everything you need and nothing you dont. It comes with mounting hardware specifically for the AMD AM4 CPU socket and no other sockets. It requires the backplate which comes preinstalled on the motherboard, so dont throw that away! Youll need it! It comes with a small tube of thermal paste and a metal decal for the front of the case. Everything you need! Even at full speed the fan is very quiet, especially after you put the side panels on the case.
