> 3 dayUpgraded my PC and went from an Intel 4690x to a ryzen7 3700x. Had the single tower noctua on it so I just figured noctua knows and they seem to. Booted up first try and other than noise I couldnt complain. The noise is still ok, just not meant for a PC thats next to ya. Good temps, no problem.

> 3 dayE un dissipatore davvero ingombrante quindi occhio al case e allaltezza delle memorie. Detto questo funziona davvero bene. La temperatura del mio I5-6600K oscilla tra i 32° e i 40° a pieno carico.

> 3 daygrazie a noctua , finalmente ho risolto il problema del surriscaldamento del processore. Finalmente mi sono liberato del raffreddamento a liquido. Da oggi in poi non devo piu controllare liquido.

> 3 dayThis cooler is simply awesome, I bolted this Noctua NF-A15x2 PWM Retail Cooling D-Type Premium CPU Cooler Fan NH-D15 to my Asus maximus v gene motherboard with an i7 2700k running @ 4.6 ghz , 28c idle, 36 under load, Its in a corsair 650d case. for anyone wondering if it will fit in this case and motherboard, It fits with room with both 140 mil fans on it properly.

> 3 dayQuiet and effective cooler. I added this to replace a 140mm liquid cooler when I upgraded from a 4700k to 8700k. My liquid cooler was dying and I was lucky this fit in the case with 1 mm to spare. I added a custom shroud to funnel the heat out the back of the case and it reduced the CPU temp by over 20C under load over the old 140mm CLC.

> 3 dayI love NOCTUA products and leaving a one star is hard for me to rate but in this case someone at Noctua is asleep on their job and not supplying all the parts or verifying! ☹
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. |
