> 3 dayquality CPU cooler, but beware of its size. I have to cut holes on my case to put it in.

> 3 dayIf Noctua knew how many of these Ive installed for my customers over the past few years, theyd send me a black Shirt with a picture of the fan-loaded NH-D15 on it that said Im cooler than you, and I would match the shirt because Im brown, and I would wear it everywhere because Im cooler than everyone.

> 3 dayAuténtica brutalidad, tanto cómo disipador, que funciona de perlas, cómo de tamaño, tienes que comprarte una caja ancha para que entre. Puede ser un poco complicado meter la RAM. Lo recomiendo.

> 3 dayOttimo packaging, sin dal principio sintomo di grande affidabilità e serietà, il DH15 è assolutamente incredibile. Silenzioso, efficiente, mantiene linterno del case freschissimo e la CPU a temperature strepitose, il tutto generando un rumore quasi impercettibile. Complimenti a Noctua per un dissipatore veramente impressionante. A questo punto, ne attendo curioso una revisione più che altro per capire come miglioreranno leccellenza :)

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. |
