> 24 hourStarted out building with a Corsair H100i AiO water cooler, but integrated fan cables didnt work. Lucky I didnt fry my CPU messing around with it. I RMAd initially for a replacement, but after doing more research decided to go with a Noctua. VERY glad I made this switch. Its a monster, but quiet with amazing performance. Installation instructions were very clear. No issues. If you have the room for this cooler, I cant recommend it enough.

> 24 hourKeeps my cpu nice and cool! And so super quiet! Even at 100% fan speed, hardly noticeable at all. Worth the investment if you really wanna keep things nice cool and quiet.

> 24 hourGreat cooler for under USD$ 90.00. It fits in my Corsair 760t with ease. It cooled a FX-8370 (125 watt TDP) and was able to overclock to stable 5GHZ. Used another on a FX-8350 was able to overclock to a stable 4.7 GHZ. Very good cooler excellent for taming heat producing monsters.

> 24 hourMein Intel i7 9700k kommt nur so ca auf 50-60 C mit dem Noctua D15. Das einzige Problem koennte sein dass er nicht in jeden case passt. Sonst ist das produkt von der Leistung her super gut.

> 24 hourPas facile à installer et plutôt chère pour un ventirad standard mais la qualité ça vous lâchera pas ça. Il vous suivra sur plusieurs setup avec des perf très satisfaisante.

> 24 hourAusgezeichneter, wenn auch teurer Kühler. Habe einen i7 6700k, zuvor habe ich bei Kühler gespart, hatte den Thermalright Macho Rev. b. Dazu 2 Lüfter, wobei leider nureiner in mein Case gepasst hat. Beim Z170 Deluxe passt der 2. Lüfter nicht.
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. |
