Greater than one weekThis is a great way to cover up the metal parts on your heatsink and make the overall look a little bit better. Since I was going for a black and white theme for my new build, I went with the white chromax cover. I think it looks great and was a great addition. For anyone new to building computers, this does not do anything for the heat. It is purely cosmetic. If you have a tempered glass panel and like staring at it or showing off your rig, I would highly recommend one of these.

Greater than one weekLove the way this looks over the aluminum heatsink in my PC rig. A little pricey for what it does, but looking through the glass panel and seeing the cover plate makes me feel good about my first build. Happy with the purchase.

Greater than one weekThis cover looks pretty good when its installed. I did bend the arms a little to give it a tighter fit, but otherwise its easily attached. It also seems a little expensive for what it is.

> 3 dayMakes my noctua look soo much cleaner. Love the sleek white look to it with black noctua fans and white corner caps. MUCH better that their brown and beige fans fo sho. Easy upgrade to your rig that’ll make it look so much better. Trust me get this and ditch the brown noctua fans. Make sure it’s compatible with your cooling tower before you buy. Mine is a NH-U14S.

> 3 dayIt has an outstanding look, and although I had no issues with the look of my Noctua coolers, I wanted to have a black and white themed PC with a dark light, and this just nailed it as it covered everything and reacts nicely with the light. Keep it up Noctua

> 3 dayBought both audio and USB cables but decided to send them back in one package and label. However, I only got a refund for one while the other one like I did not sent it back. Cables seem good but wires at the end were not fully sleeved, as I expected the whole cable is sleeved and heat shrink wrapped from end to end.

High-quality powder-coated aluminiumTired of flimsy, thin plastic faceplates? The chromax line heatsink covers are made from sturdy, 1mm-thick aluminium and feature a scratch-resistant powder-coating finish in order to match the build quality of your Noctua heatsink. |
Match with industrialPPC or chromax fans and padsNoctua’s chromax line heatsink covers are a perfect match for the black industrialPPC and chromax.black.swap fans, both of which can be colour-customised using chromax anti-vibration pads and cables (available in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow). |
Easy installationInstalling Noctua’s chromax line heatsink covers is child’s play: Put the fixture on top of the cooler, secure it with the steel clip, slide on the cover until the magnets snap into place – done! You don’t even have to remove the cooler from the CPU or take off the fan. |
Endless options for customisationDo you want to give your entire heatsink a custom colour to take things one step further? While spray-painting heatsinks is difficult and reduces performance, Noctua’s powder-coated chromax covers can easily be repainted with custom colours and decorations. |
The NA-HC1 chromax.black.swap comes with swappable inlays in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow that allow colour-coordinating the heatsink with most popular build colour schemes. Whether you’re designing your dream machine for the years to come or switch parts on a monthly basis, matching colours has never been so easy!
