    Ich bin zufrieden: der Lüfter ist sehr leise und kühlt wunderbar einen AMD Ryzen. Natürlich ist der Kühlkörper monströs groß, aber dafür ist er sehr leise. Die Montage funktioniert wie üblich bei solchen Geräten. Der Lüfter ist mit Gummi vom Alu-Körper entkoppelt. Fühlt sich alles ordentlich an.

    Brilliant fan (NH-U12S and NF-F12) , this fan at full speed is quiter than a stock Intel fan at its slowest speed. Very well made and very classly packaged (Apple Inc levels). CPU sits approx 20c lower temp when being worked hard in games compared to stock Intel cooler. Absolutely brilliant, great warranty and online reviews of this by experts all agree one of the best, if not THE best for its price.

    My computer is located in the same room where I record voice audio. Although relatively quiet, it was loud enough to be picked up my my microphone, especially when the CPU was under stress. Most of this noise came from two sources: the CPU fan and an older hard disk drive. After replacing both, the CPU fan with this Noctua NH-U12S, and the hard drive with a solid state drive, I dropped the sound level by 8 decibels, from 35 db down to 27db. I cant even tell when my computer is on, and my room is almost silent.

    Hello person on the internet! If you are looking to see if this works as intended, and well, its perfect. Take it from someone that would overheat with 3 liquid cooled fans. I did a test run with this fan, no extra fans included, and my pc didnt overheat. Connecting it was a breeze.

    I replaced my Corsair water cooler with this guy and its so much quieter and the cooling is the same or cooler. It costs more than a lot of coolers but you get what you pay for. Extremely effective and high quality.

    Installed this, on a Intel I7-9700, which is installed on a Asus Z390-A motherboard, which is attached to a CoolerMaster 500m case. Averaging low 30C at idle and mid to upper 50C while playing Steam games. The fan is relatively quiet even when running at 80% rate. What else to say...just buy it.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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 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 compound

Having 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.
