> 3 dayI heard Noctua had a reputation for producing low noise coolers well, I gave it a shot. The box came with enough parts to make you believe you are mounting a quality product. There is a signed letter by the CEO swearing over the hundreds (400 to be exact) awards received because their fans are so quiet. I took this seriously (I dont take most companies seriously) and committed to follow the directions to the letter to install said quality product...

> 3 daySwapped out my Hyper212 and Im not looking back. The 212 was good and I appreciate the value but the Noctua is great. Keep temps below 70C on my 3600x with a 4.3 OC and idles at 40C which is 5-8C cooler than the 212. I have a Corsair LL120 push and the providedNoctua fan pull on this setup because I slipped into the RGB rabbit hole. But it still works amazing. These measurements are immediately after install with the provided Noctua thermal paste. Idk if Noctua paste has a cure time but I wont complain if temps drop even lower

> 3 dayDissipatore ottimo con il cavo per la riduzione del rumore incluso il suono e pari a zero. Senza invece un po rumoroso. Raffreddamento eccezionale. Parecchio grosso non adatto a tutti i case

> 3 daySolo tardo 4 días en llegar a Bogota, la instalación fue muy fácil, lo compre para reemplazar el wraith prism de AMD por cuestión de ruido y vaya que estoy satisfecho, la temperatura bajo en 8 grados con el ventilador al 40% y son el ventilador al 100% baja hasta 12-14 grados en comparación al anterior

Greater than one weekEasy to install. Replaced my stock AMD Wraith cooler for the 3700x and easily reduced temps by 15-20 C on idle and max load. Previous temps were 50-90 C and now its 35-75 C. Max load is while gaming. No other changes were made to my cooling setup. Id definitely recommend this cooler. P.S. It is much much quieter than the Wraith cooler.

> 3 dayIl prodotto funziona perfettamente, è arrivato tutto intero e non mancava nulla al suo interno ma quello che mi lascia perplesso è il fuori. Infatti da come si vede in foto, non è stato usato nessun imballaggio per la spedizione, mi è stato semplicemente attaccato ladesivo con le informazioni e spedito così. Oltretutto non era presente nessun sigillo sulla scatola originale, il che non mi piace per niente come cosa.

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 compatibilityStanding 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 compatibilityThanks 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 fanRecommended 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-customisableUsing 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. |
