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

Excelente mantiene mi procesador a temperaturas normales de funcionamiento Rayzen 5800x

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

I cant say enough good things about Noctua. This cooler is by far the quietest part of my build (cooling a Ryzen 9 5900X). This keeps my CPU pretty cool too (never above 80C). Very happy with my purchase.

Ich habe einen kompakten CPU Kühler gesucht der einen Ryzen 7 5800x kühlen kann, relativ leise ist, leicht zu montieren ist, gut aussieht und eine gute Qualität hat.

Like all Noctua products, the quality is exceptional. It is a touch difficult sometimes to get the screws going when mounting the cooler, but thats about it. Keeps my Ryzer 7 at good temps. I did try out their smaller 92mm single fan cpu cooler version for a bit. Compared to that I got 5 degrees lower on idle, and around 9 degrees cooler on load on Cinebench. That is going from a single 92mm cooler to dual 120mm, so the improvement makes sense. That just goes to show how good their smaller coolers are! If you dont plan to overclock your cpu I would go with their smaller cooler as the difference isnt massive. This particular all black version is on the pricier side (thats the 1 star drop). Nonetheless, Noctua is my go-to for anything cooling. I thought hard about buying an AiO from another brand but didnt want to have to worry about pump issues, leaking, or fitting the radiator in my case. Im happy I went with Noctua.

Best CPU air cooler on the market hands down. Whisper quiet, lowered my cpu temps by a lot, and installing it was super simple. Couldn’t recommend this product more.

Great cooler for anyone looking for something simple and easy to install. Keeps my 5900x idling at 35-45c reaching a max of 75c under 100% usage. The Noctua fans that this cooler comes with are so quiet at 100% power that I can only notice they make sound if I turn my corsair case fans off to listen, and thats without the included noise reducing cables. Highly recommend this over an AIO. I’m giving it 4 stars because of the lack of color options for the fans, and that the $20 chromax magnetic cover for the heat sink is a separate purchase when I feel it should be included in the already expensive price.

Purchase this size if you are looking to build a mini-atx computer. I put this into the fractal design define 7 nano case (w/ i5 12600K) and it fits perfectly. Anything bigger MIGHT clear but this is the perfect size with equally excellent cooling capacity.

I tried to fit a Noctua NH-D15 about a year and a half ago and it was too large. I ended up getting a nzxt 120mm aio. The pump failed and I was able to rma it for a new one. After a few months the pump started to whine again so I purchased the NH-U12A as it said it has 100% RAM compatibility on LGA115x which is what I have.

Ive been an avid nhd15 user. No more. I will now be using the u12a for future builds. I just built a 5950x system with a u12a and it keeps it from loosing its cool. Mid 80s when PBO optimized, same as the nhd15 i tried on the same system :) In my mind, its quieter and is not an eye sore in my case blocking the pretty ram that Ive got or causing me to loose skin trying to pull out my video card. As stated before, the temperatures seems like its the same as its bigger counterpart. The only negative thing that I can think of is that I did have a couple of bent fins but they were easily bent back into shape.
