> 3 dayThere was never a performance issue with the cooler, as it performed quite well. Unfortunately, it does not pair well with a lot of ram, while it is dual fan mode. Other than that 5/5!

> 3 dayprima di tutto, nel passato mi sono trovato molto bene con noctua per qui ho scelto di rimanere su questo modello per il nuovo pc. Purtroppo è arrivato con una singola ventola.(quella centrale) Quindi ora per sbrigare le cose ho dovuto comprare un altra ventola ... visto che i tempi per fare avanti indietro con il pacco non fa comodo a tutti.

> 3 dayThese things are worth very penny and the hassle of getting their huge size bolted on. I replaced a liquid cooled system that I could not replace a broken fan and the temps dropped significantly. The whole system got much quieter as well.

> 3 dayI went from a H80 AIO to this. This is so quiet I can leave my computer on and sleep. Im only using one fan.

> 3 dayThe cooler is amazing, and can compete with liquid cpu cooling systems. However the installation for the middle fan is a bit complicated and requires tools to install it properly. Other than installation, it is a great unit.

> 3 dayEccellente dissipatore, messo su Skylake i7 6700K in regime di lavoro normale, non gaming, tiene la temperatura tra i 29 e i 32 gradi. Unica pecca, è mostruosamente grande e per installarlo ci vuole un case con almeno 24cm di larghezza.

Greater than one weekThis is one great cooler it works perfectly.
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. |
