    Noctua, lillustre marque de ventirad. Nul besoin dun water cooling moins performant. Encore une belle conception, en noir, un plus dans ma config. i5 a bonne température, 50°c max overclocké, que demander dautre ? Le bundle est complet et contient déjà une pipette de pâte thermique noctua très correcte.

    Un poco caro... Pero nada de ruido. Refrigera sibre unos 8-10 grados por debajo del refigerador de serie

    Es bastante eficiente, lo tengo casi siempre a un 40% de su capacidad sobre un R5 5600g, nunca sobrepasa de los 50 grados lo cual es bastante saludable para el procesador manteniendo un ruido casi nulo, te incluye todo lo necesario para su fácil instalación.

    Awesome Air Cooler. Easy to install on an AM4 board. Replaced Wraith Prism Cooler on my 7 2700X because I wasnt happy with the constant sound of the Fan ramping up if Im honest. Also I figured the Noctua would be a better thermal solution overall.

    I used this for my first PC build ever and it’s silent and keeps my cpu at around 50°C under load. It was super easy to install and everything made sense. If you want a good CPU cooler this is the best choice in my opinion.

    This cooled down a 7600k OC to 5.0ghz and kept it at 71c. Absolutely quiet while doing so.

    Kühlt meinen i7 9700 im inwin a1 bei stabilen 70*C ohne dabei aufdringlich laut zu werden und sieht dabei auch noch klasse aus. Hatte absolut keine Probleme mit RAM oder ähnliches und alles passt super. Auch die Montage war schnell und problemlos erledigt.

    Easy to install on AM4 and fits the same backplate that comes with 3600x. Add the spacers (box contents clearly shows bits for each platform) and brackets then screw cooler to brackets. Hardest part was removing old stock cooler, it was stuck to the CPU and so needed some clockwise ‘wiggle’.

    Finally a black Noctua cooler. Very quiet and great performance.

The NH-U12S chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s NH-U12S premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven slim-tower heatsink design and NF-F12 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U12S’s successful formula of fusing excellent cooling performance with superb quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a highly compatible 120mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent case and PCIe compatibility

Standing 158mm tall, the NH-U12S is short enough to fit most modern mid- or high-end tower cases. Measuring 125mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on most standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups.

100% RAM compatibility

Thanks to its slim design with only 45mm fin depth, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and ensures 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans.

NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fan

Recommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts worldwide, the Noctua’s premium-quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned for combining superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation.

Colour-customisable

Using the optional NA-HC1 and NA-HC2 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U12S chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white.
