Greater than one weekDissipatore per CPU fatto a regola d’arte: bello, silenzioso e grazie alle dimensioni degli heat pipe e della ventola garantisce temperature sotto stress sotto i 70º C... D’altronde, noctua è sempre noctua

Greater than one weekA little tricky to install but not bad considering the space in my tower. It is very quiet and performs admirably under load or when most of my system is idle.

> 3 dayEro incerto e alle prime armi con una ventola non stock. Ho consultato una serie di Video su YouTube e alla fine ho scelto questo Noctua NH-U12S per il mio processore AMD II x6 Phenom. Sono soddisfatto da tutto: imballaggio, qualità prodotto, istruzioni, e il rumore della ventola. Cè la possibilità di aggiungerne una, forse lo farò ma più in la quando cambio anche la scheda video.

> 3 dayThey do what theyre supposed to and its super silent even without the extra cable. It comes with the Intel 2011 brackets unlike what others may post in the review.

> 3 daySlightly expensive for a fan, slightly heavy, but this thing keeps my CPU ice cold! Ive overclocked my machine like crazy and this thing keeps it running without a hitch. There was some slight confusion in the installation of the fan, but chalk that one up to PEBKAC (Problem exists between keyboard and chair). If you have the case space for this monster of a fan, get it and thank me later!

> 3 dayIch habe den Lüfter vor über einem Jahr gekauft und bisher läuft er absolut zuverlässig. Er ist sehr leise bzw. für mich nicht hörbar und bietet mehr als ausreichend Kühl-Leistung. Jeder, der von lauten PC-Lüftern genervt ist, sollte hier zugreifen.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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 world-wide, the Noctua"s premium quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned to combine superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundHaving received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua"s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability. |
