> 3 dayNon sarà uno dei più economici, ma Noctua promette e mantiene: questo NH-U12S tiene a bada un i7 7700k persino con un leggero overclock del 9%, ovvero portato a 4.6 GHz, senza superare gli 80 gradi.

> 3 dayI purchased this cooling solution after experiencing major issues with the Hyper Evo 212 which, in my opinion, has a terrible mounting solution - mainly they tighten the CPU down to the motherboard way too much. I wrecked two motherboards trying to mount the Hyper Evo 212 and ended up with bent pins for my troubles. So, I went back to the drawing board and found the Noctua NC-U12S. What a difference! Easy to install. No frustrating mounting issues. Quiet fan. All in all, just a joy to install. I didnt even care about the fan color and to be honest, the brown color grew on me over time. Ive had mine installed for several months now and my temps are rock steady and COOL. Ill be using the Noctua coolers as my stock in trade solution for future builds.

> 3 dayThe fittings for this are such quality, as is the fan of course. I thought I reviewed this when I got it so have to apologise that Ive only just noticed I didnt.

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. |
