Noctua NH-U12A chromax.Black, 120mm Single-Tower CPU Cooler (Black)

Bought this cooler as it was the only one that supported LGA 1700 out of the box. It keeps my 12600k in the high 60s under load.

Does the job runs quiet and keeps CPU cool ! Looks nice too

Awesome cooler but the only drawback it does not fit in a lian li case it is to tall and hit the glass panel on the lian li O11 dynamic so sad

Purchased this cooler when the Intel 12th gen chips launched. Ordered it for the i9 12900K, it seemed to work well at first. But when playing games or using any task that made the CPU usage increase, temps dramatically went up. For example, I tried running a Prime95 benchmark only for the chip to overheat and throttle. Upgraded to a Corsair water cooler and have had no heat issues since.

ORIGINAL REVIEW: I wish I could say equally good things about the quality control of this cooler as I do about its performance to noise ratio, installation, compatibility, looks, and long-term mounting kit upgrade prospects. Disappointing to say the least, especially for Noctuas premium prices.

Efficace pour un I7 12700K (~70° pleine puissance).

replaced a corsaire h100 v2 that was idleing at 80c...this puppy sits at 38c. it saved my system!

Muy confiable y excelente para mi procesador un ryzen 9 5950x que es calentón, lo mantiene fresco.

The Stock Cooler on an Intel i7-8700 was not cutting it when pushed hard. When importing point cloud scan data the CPU would constantly hit thermal limits at 99-100c hindering performance and putting the hardware in a dangerous temp zone. The U12A keeps an average temp of 62c with individual core peeks at 78c during extended 100% cpu utilization. CPU performance now remains consistent and no more loud fan noise ramping up and down. Good investment to prolong the useful life of my existing hardware. The Cooler, Fans & contents of installation kit are exceptional and well worth the money.

Muy muy bueno
