> 3 dayForse il miglior dissipatore in commercio a quel prezzo e sicuramente migliore di dissipatori a liquido che costano lo stesso tanto. La possibilità di aggiungere unaltra ventola inoltre lo rende ottimo. La rumorosità è sopportabile e diventa percepibile solo al massimo della velocità.

Greater than one weekSilencioso y con unas temperaturas maxima de 52ºC en full carga, con una temperatura ambiente de 30º. En un I7 5820K sin oc. El anterior con dos ventiladores rondaba los 56-58º.

> 3 dayActualmente (verano de 2020) Viene con accesorios para ser montado en procesadores Intel y AMD, con tres hojas de instrucciones en inglés: una para socket AM3/AM4 (es el mismo sistema de montaje, solo cambia que se usan los espaciadores blancos o los grises), otra para socket Intel LGA115x y otra para socket LGA20xx.

> 3 dayThis cooler is incredible. It reduced noise levels on my PC drastically. I can hardly hear it. The PC now whispers even under a heavy load. The Wraith Prism cooler that came with my AMD Ryzen 7 3700X looked nice but was noisy -- it would constantly and audibly whir up and down. I no longer have these problems. Fortunately this Noctua cooler does not block my Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro RAM on my MSI B450 Tomahawk Max motherboard.

> 3 dayCompré este disipador porque mi disipador stock de mi 5600x hacía que el procesador llegara hasta los 85 grados jugando y con este disipador noctua logré bajar las temperaturas de 85 a 63 grados. Excelente producto además que tiene pasta térmica incluida y los manuales están fáciles de entender. 10/10

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. |
