Noctua NH-U12A, Premium CPU Cooler with High-Performance Quiet NF-A12x25 PWM Fans (120mm, Brown)

I have used TEC coolers built my own water cooling systems and used oems cooling systems on the computers that I built this is the first air cooling system that has beat them all i would recommend this cooler to anyone.

So far soo good.. CPU hasnt gone above 50°C but I will be testing it with Unreal and so on to get benchmarks

Im using this with an Intel i7 11900k CPU. It works well and runs about 5C cooler than the 240mm AIO I was previously using. At 76F ambient, Im getting individual cores between 40-47C with a mostly idle ubunu desktop. Package is showing 47C-50C. This is with kyronaut extreme thermal paste rather than the noctua included stuff. Benchmark results show a 5% increase with the new cooler overall. (passmark, multiple phoronix tests, geekbench)

replaced my corsair 240mm aio due to high noise level ( processor : 9700K 5Gh , 1.37V) , thermals are almost the same but noise level decreased dramatically

Phenomenal performance for its size and has a great mounting system (as all Noctua coolers do). The only downside is the price.

Delivered fast, clear instructions and comes with all the needed parts. However, heatsink fins had some bents.

For the longest time when I built my first desktop I wanted to go water cooling with an AIO but for some reason something changed in me a year ago when I finally did build my first desktop and I dont think Ill ever go AIO now.

I am running an AMD Ryzen 5800X and had the massive Noctua NH-D15S for a while and while it is an exceptional cooler its absolutely massive (I was only able to have one fan installed on it otherwise it would have blocked the GPU fan below (see picture).

Ok, WOW. expensive little fan but you get what you pay for. Sheesh this thing can cool my 5600x CPU so well. Its so bulky but also does pack power. It is relatively quiet for its size and what it does, but its not super duper quiet. It hasnt been long since Ive started using it but I already love it. Keeps my CPU at a cool 52c constantly.
