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

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.

I recently purchased an NR200 case and using the wraith cooler, felt my CPU temps were not sufficient. Look up reviews and decided to bite the bullet with this tower cooler. Temps dropped more then 10 degrees and it is very quiet on light/medium loads. Definitely paid a premium for black but I am extremely pleased with this cooler.

El producto funciona de maravilla, las instrucciones fueron muy claras para su instalación, el ruido es aceptable aún y cuando se sube al máximo la velocidad y la temperatura de mi procesador la disminuyó poco más de 10 grados a una temperatura ambiente de 25 grados aproximadamente y me gustó tanto su diseño como los materiales.

Keeps my 5800x3d nice and cool at all times. RAM clearance is another plus over its bigger brother.

Really powerful cooler, accidentally received the beige and chrome one but Amazon quickly replaced it with the correct one

The compact format, compared to similar performance coolers, and the fantastic new fans makes this cooler a very good option for those who need this level of performance at a more compact size.

As an owner of the NH-D15, my only complaint with that cooler was that it covered the release latch for the GPU, basically forcing me to either cut my fingers on the heatsink, or poke at the release latch with a screwdriver. And now this basically solved that.

Honestly there’s nothing I dislike about this system. It’s amazing!!! I’m running a 12th Gen Intel with this and it’s kept it cool under a long gaming sessions no problem, and I’m talking 10-14hrs no break.

I choose Noctua for its Premium Look, easy installation and support for new socket even though theres ton of air cooler out there for cheapest price. Also, its hard to get one here in the Philippines as almost stores here are out of stock for this model. Thanks Noctua!

Tenia una corsair de 1 ventilador, ya que en la caja no entraba más. Y le daban unas ventoleras a la refrigeración que no era medio normal. A parte con juegos que requerían de procesador pues tiraba a todo lo que daba y un ruido a turbina que parecía que estaba viendo la peli de Top Gun.
