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

Looks nice and attaching the heatsink to the motherboard is easy. However, the fans will not stay firmly attached to the heatsink with the flimsy steel clips provided. Maybe if the motherboard is lying flat and the heatsink is pointed straight up instead of out to the side (which most builds would have it) then maybe it would work, but even then, I would be worried the clips would come loose and the fans fall away from the heatsink. Would be better if there was the option to bolt the fans to the heatsink. Pretty much a loss at this point.

trying to cool a 5800x3d. I switched to this from a 40$ NZXT tower cooler thts 5 heat pipes with one fan push. (get 42c-74c)

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

Premetto che ho due pc e questo e il secondo dissipatore noctua che compro e sono rimasto meravigliato dell efficacia di raffredamento e silenziosita che ha nei confronti del nd h15 che ho mantato su i9-12900kf mentre questo sta dissipando i9-10900k e sono rimasto meravigliato dato le sue dimensioni ridotte consiglio nh-12a che a prestazioni sono simili ma ancora piu silenzioso e prende meno spazio ottimo da parte di noctua

It includes the LGA 1700 socket mounting kit and it fits fine on an MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI DD4 mobo. They also include thermal paste as well. The fans are still attached using spring clips which work fine. The fans have nice rubbarised corners which helps with the assembly. Brackets are also included for AMD CPUs. The fans are quiet. Quality product by Noctua much better & less hassle than water pumps in my opinion.

Was sent a product that had been used, missing the mounting clips and an empty bottle of thermal paste came in the box

Replaced my aging AIO and brought my idle temps from 149f to about 90. Whisper quiet, cant even hear it from outside the case. Had to offset one of the fans to clear the ram, and will have to remove the cooler if I want to install more ram (B550 Pro4)

Larticle est arrivé endommagé, sûrement déjà ouvert et mal remballé... très déçu car je dois nettoyer la surface en contact avec le processeur.

Custom open-air Intel Core i5 build. The smallest Noctua couldnt quite pull it off, so I exchanged for this unit. Soak test kept me under 65C at less than 1000 rpm, so I have an effective cooling solution thats really quiet. Nice.

For what you pay for this cooler, decent is not the standard when it comes to AM5 7000 series. 7900x to be exact. Im sure if youre running AM4 or last Gen Intel this is a great cooler its probably the best 120mm cooler for the situation. If youre running higher 7000 series CPUs spent that $120 towards a decent 360+mm aio and youll be just fine. I settled with a 420mm AIO, best move I made.
