> 3 daySimplemente la calidad eclipsa cualquier disipador del rango del precio de este Noctua. Jamas dudes en invertir tus 60 € en este Noctua y no con otros posiblemente más vistosos o coloridos, pero nada que ver con los materiales que componen este disipador.

> 3 dayThe fitting kit is great. All the options for each supported CPU are provided, so you end up with lots of bits left over. But the framework to support the relatively large heatsink is confidence inspiring.

> 3 dayGreat cooler, upgraded from wraith prism. Had a 10°c drop on the max and a 4° drop on the low. Easy to install. Threw on another fan for push/pull as it comes with 2 extra fan clips. Best part is the noise difference between the wraith prism and this. Always recommend Noctua.

> 3 dayI have been home-building computers for decades, primarily air-cooled, dabbling with liquid from time to time. All to say, I have some experience within this area. This heatsink/fan combo is engineered with precision. As others have noted, there are some very minor challenges with attaching the mounting system - but once the threads engage in the mounting mechanism, you can tell that it is attached securely and know that it will provide excellent conduction of heat from the CPU into the heat pipes. The packaging is secure, and the documentation is among the best I have seen for this type of item. Temps are good and align to reviews that I have read on tech sites. I look forward to this device keeping my Ryzen 3900x cool for years to come.

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. |
