    Its extremely quiet (basically silent when at idle). My intake fan is louder than the two fans running on the air cooler (I put the low noise adapters that came with the cooler because why not). AM4 installation was a breeze for a first time pc builder pleb like myself. Also nice that the cooler came with mounting brackets to fit AM3, AM4, and Intel CPUs.

    This replaced an Enermax AIO for my 12900K that failed 6 months after purchase. CPU temps were reaching 100C at idle and was throttling back to prevent damage. Ordered this and it came overnight. I installed it immediately, fired it up, and idle CPU temps are now 10c above ambient. Full usage during gaming is running mid 50c. This thing is every bit as good as the professional reviews say it is. I should have stuck with my instincts when I first built my new rig but wanted to try something different with an AIO. Hard to beat Noctua.

    Gaming, browsing, multitasking in the month since I bought this my 3700x has not seen 45c and I dont think it will. The legends are true. This is the best cooler on the market, hands down.

    Likes: easy to install, very quiet, looks great in black with the optional chromax colored cover. GREAT cooling for my i7 9700k. Seeing a 5-7 degree drop from previous Deepcool cooler. Much smaller than the DH-15!

    Overall it was a fairly simple job, but my recommendation is to read every line of the instruction guide to save yourself some headaches. Here are some issues that I ran into by not doing that.

    It does keep my Ryzen 7 5800x cool even under heavy loads. Max temps have only reached up to 70 C and that is without undervolting.

    Puede ser un poco agobiante de instalar si nunca has tenido productos Noctua como es mi caso, ya que en la guía de instalación se ven muchos pasos, pero realmente es muy sencillo, Noctua piensa en todo y eso se agradece mucho, silencioso, eficiente y bonito.

    I was looking forward to giving this product a good review. The main cooler unit was impressive and easy to install. But, the two fans that attach to the sides came with the most ridiculously unusable clips. Why does Noctua believe that a product costing such a premium should deserve such cheaply produced clips? Neither clips would attach to the main unit with enough force to remain in place. I ended up sending this back for a refund and buying a Lian-Li Galahad 360 AIO instead.

    This probably one the best cooperes out there. Easy to install, was up and running quickly but like me I took my time to make sure I installed it right. Love that it comes with thermal paste with it. Currently installed on a Super Micro X9SCL-F motherboard for a Xenon CPU. The back plate on this motherboard is glued to the motherboard but nothing like a heat guy and just prying it off without damaging the board.

    Simple to install, Whisper quiet. Pricey? Yes, but why not get the best? Highly recommended.
