    This fan is amazing. Its huge, so make sure your case can fit it (we have a Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 - perfect size). It runs extremely quite and keeps the temperature cooler than all but one water cooler (even then, its within 2* C).

    If you can get it to fit, it performs extremely well. Keeps my 11700K cool, performs better that the Arctic Liquid Freezer 240 I had before it. Prime95 Avx-512 at 220W stays under 90C for me

    So the heat sink it self works fine. Keeps my cpu nice and cool, but there were issuies with installation. I have a 10th gen intel with a lga1200 socket, but the instructions for that socket were impossible to be followed. Despite being lga1200 my motherboard lacked the parts to use that installation method, and thus wasnt compatible with it. I had to instead use the lga1151 parts which did work, but it still was not obvious that I was supposed to use that set up as it was for an older socket type. Would like to note that it is big. It may not be obvious if someone has a EATX motherboard but for the standard sizes it barely leaves room for the other items. Everything fits but it doesnt leave alot of wiggle room.

    Love the fan, so quiet and keep my 8700k at below 70 under stress test

    Theres cheaper options available for this many heatpipes, but this one doesnt force you to spend 30 or 40 dollars replacing the stock fans with noctuas. This wont outperform a 360 mm AIO in a case with terrible airflow, but with good airflow this wont have any problems radiating away 200 watts of heat in 20 years. Ol reliable, just be sure to slap the top of it twice and say that aint going nowhere after you complete the mounting instructions, I dont know why they would leave out such a critical step.

    Cools my fx 8320 @ 4.7ghz 1.42v. While gaming I average 47c bf1. prime 95 70c on the mobo and 60c on the core. One thing I noticed is the bigger the case the better. And you need great airflow for this to perform as well as it can. I have a small case with ok airflow so it could perform better for you. Way quieter than my corsair h80i with better performance by around 3-5c.

    Wow! This CPU cooler performs beautifully! I originally had the AMD Wraith Prism cooler on my 3700X and it would usually do the mid 70 degrees Celcius stock speed on the AIDA Stress test. Now with NH-D15, I am getting low 60 degrees Celcius on my CPU! Highly Recommended! Beware you need a big case to fit it.

    This replaced my Ttake Frio Advanced for an i7-4930. This is noticeably quieter and the processor runs about 5 degrees cooler at idle. Its beautifully made and packaged compactly, with the ability to have one or two fans simply by unclipping one. Be careful to check the width of your case as it is very tall.

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 layout

Compared 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 mode

Thanks 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 fans

The 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 compound

Noctua"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.
