> 3 dayNoctua NH-D15. Works perfectly, reduced the full load temp of a 2700x by +-20C under full load compared to Prism Wraith cooler, and is very quiet. Came with mounting brackets for Intel and AMD. Be aware that it does not come with backplate for AMD (your motherboard should have it). Very pleased with product, although it is very expensive for what it is. Be sure to check for motherboard, RAM clearance and case compatibility before purchasing, it is Huge. Had a bit of trouble mounting it on AM4 socket, you must screw in both screws at the exact same time, otherwise it will tilt and will not screw down properly. Thermal paste and screwdriver provided in box is a plus!

Greater than one weekDer Ein- und Aufbau dieses riesigen Prozessor-Lüfters ist nicht ganz einfach, wenn man ein kompaktes Rechner-Gehäuse besitzt. Der Luft-Raum, den man zur Verfügung hat, um die Kabel der Lüfter auf die passenden Anschlüsse zu stecken, kann da schon recht eng bemessen sein. Richtiges Fingerspitzen-Gefühl kann da nötig werden.

> 3 dayAnnoying to install but nothing can beat this industrial grade cooling...not even water. Im running this with an i9-9900ks overclocked well beyond 5.0 along with 2 SLId 2080 Supers. This huge, bulky, UGLY AS HELL, and annoying-to-install cooler has fans that are strong enough to regulate the heat for the entire build. Yes, theres no RGB, and its cream and brown colored boring ugliness. But this cooler will beat every other option out there while NOT EVEN TRYING.

> 3 dayI dont know why my family member had me buy this for my new PC. If youre an overclocker, this is your go-to for air cooling. I am not a big overclocker. Also, this thing is GINORMOUS. We bought a standard-sized ATX case with a plexiglass side. The cooler stuck out beyond the case by .5cm or so and made the side bulge out. I replaced it with another CPU cooler with an ARPG fan that fits nicely and cools well - even with minor CPU overclocking.

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. |
