Greater than one weekI have a msi x299 pro. Which is an lga2066 size and i bought this cpu fan thinking it was the right fit for my motherboard but when i received the fan i opened it and noticed that the back brace doesnt fit AT ALL like no way it could fit it was way too small...wtf is this...it says it fits lga2066 but clearly doesnt fit

> 3 dayThis is a quiet and very high quality cooler. There are two versions - one with dual 140mm fans and one with just one fan. I had other use for the 140mm front fan, but in some installations it is better to have a 120mm front fan for RAM clearance. Either way the cooling is about the same. Plenty of mounting accessories and the low noise adapters (resistive) are included.

09-06-2025It was amazingly easy to install. I was especially surprised with the fan clips. I installed fan clips using a competitors cpu fan mounting solution in the past and expected it to be as difficult, but it was much easier.

08-06-2025Pretty sure at this point its thermally impossible to make a better cooler design than this while taking up the same or less space. Itll easily run circles around almost any AIO cooler and be quieter to boot, just make sure it actually fits in your case.

> 3 daySuper easy to install. Had to put a 120mm over ram for clearance. Super quiet. running 34c idle and 58c gaming on my I7 12700k. Super happy with it. I used the nf-a12x25 to replace over the ram for clearance. Made my total cooler 161mm that way.

> 3 dayI upgraded my stock amd cooler for this fan and i see a difference. I also am not to worried about RGB anymore so the black is great. Looks so much better than the tan color coolers.

Greater than one weekAlles perfekt. Er läuft fast geräuschlos und kühlt phantastisch. Bin froh ein paar Euros mehr ausgegeben zu haben. Montage war auch sehr gut erläutert und lief gut!

6 heatpipe dual-tower designAs compared to conventional single tower heatsinks, the NH-D15’s fine-tuned six heatpipe dual-tower design provides more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency in dual-fan mode. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua"s premium-class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua"s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high-end RAM modules on the market. In dual-fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard-height RAM (up to 32mm). |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC3 and NA-HC4 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP3 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-D15 chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
