> 24 hourHo acquistato questo dissipatore il 9 dicembre con lintenzione di montarlo su un fx 8350 che avrei dovuto acquistare. In seguito anzichè prendere la cpu Amd ho cambiato idea e ho deciso di assemblare il nuovo pc su base intel, così ho comprato l i7 4790k. Il Noctua NH-U12S può essere montato sia sul socket am3+ che sul socket 1150. A febbraio 2016 dopo aver acquistato e assemblato tutti i pezzi nel nuovo pc e dopo aver fatto diverse formattazioni e testato windows 10, ho deciso di reinstallare windows 7 che è più stabile.

> 24 hourConsiglio configurazione push&pull (con un altra Noctua NF-F12 PWM) riesce a mantenere nelluso quotidiano un core i7-5930k al di sotto una temperatura di 32° con temperatura interna al case di 28°.

> 24 hourI like this unit, it is high quality, and uses standard size fans. It fit my case perfect. The mounting is better than the Zalman it replaced

> 24 hourSilent (I can not even believe it), easy to mount, nice looking, has additional hardware to mount a second fan, if it is necessary (overclocking, for example). Noctua fans are the best! Recommended!

> 24 hourInstalled 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 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. |
