> 24 hourThis is an absolute golith of a cpu cooler and only just fitted in my msi case so make sure you dont risk it like I did. Make sure you check if it will fit your case, coming from water cooling I can tell you it will keep your cpu cool and its really quite also which is always a good thing. I have a ryzen 5 5800x and that runs that around 31c on Idle but this will depend on various things such as airflow, amount of fans and also what the ambient temp is. Ill be sticking with aircooling from now on.

> 24 hourCheck compatibility carefully on Noctuas helpful website, including case height and RAM clearance - if using RAM with large coolers second fan may not be usable. Read installation instructions carefully. Subject to that it seems well built and does a good job. Plastic protective cover had fallen off in the box, but no visible damage.

> 24 hourI got this because the stock cooler that comes with the Intel i7-12700F just wasnt keeping it cool enough. It was even causing my PC to crash with 4 sticks of Veangence LPX @ 3200Mhz. But now its all running smoothly (granted I also got a new Motherboard, new Corsair 4000X case) and hovering idle around 35-45℃

Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua’s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14’s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.

Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15"s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15"s superior efficiency. |
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). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
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. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua"s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |
