    Fits in a Fractal Meshify C tower on a Asus TUF z390 mATX board due to its 120mm fan profile.

    When it comes to air cooling a CPU there is no better choice than noctua. The product arrived in perfect condition and is very visually appealing. Mounting was easy and the product quality was typical noctua - excellent. Im running a ryzen 7 5800x and cinebench r23 multi core peaked at 69 degrees celsius in a Lian li Lancool 2 mesh case. Also - I had the nh-d15s before and found that mounting the nh-u12a and installing the fans were much easier.

    Instructions were clear and concise, all black is great, mounting is good(would like a preset torque driver included in the kit for the price), keeps a 11700K(stock) 10C under TJmax when running prime95s hardest test, cold plate is machined to an even and flat surface. All in all this is a good upgrade from Coolermaster 212 series.

    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.

    I bought the NH-12A version with the fan cover. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09J8RQD6W/?coliid=IMUU7EVF0S8SY&colid=UCD6HGAMAZMA&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

    Loud, ineffective. As simple as that, get the NH-D15 if it fits your case. Huge difference.

    This thing works!!! Better (lower temps) and Quieter than my old CPU cooler. No RAM restrictions.

    I will never use an AIO again -- sure they look cool, and the idea of water cooled electronics is also a neat, but after getting this cooler to replace the AIO I had go out on me (pump just quit one day), I cant believe it took me this long to get on the Noctua band wagon. My PC idles at between 30-40c, and I have never seen a spike over 65c in even the most demanding games. Best of all, this cooler has 100% RAM compatibility with most AMD and Intel boards, which was always my biggest concern when I considered a Noctua cooler. It seems as though Noctua realized this and came out with this beauty of a cooler, and its a nice stealthy black (although the brown and tan has grown on me). So I 100% recommend this to anyone looking for a cooler, or who has an AIO and realizes that even with a three fan radiator theyre not getting the cooling power theyd like to see. Seriously, and quite literally, a game changer.

    Advertised as fitting z690 board but had to mount it sideways to fit my dominator ram sticks.
