> 24 hourho comprato questo dissipatore perche quello stock che usavo era troppo rumoroso e dopo 1/2 ore di utilizzo del pc il mio r5 3600 raggiungeva gli 85 gradi quindi ho optato per questo dissipatore di noctua.

> 24 hourLittle noise and the noise you do hear is actually nice to listen to unlike many other coolers. I like my builds quiet and to look nice. Noctua always can provide that for both

> 24 hourBon produit assez silencieux et efficace.Toutefois le système daccroche du ventilateur sur le radiateur parait sommaire.A monter dans une tour suffisamment grande!!

> 24 hourNoctua non ha bisogno di presentazioni, i suoi prodotti sono semplicemente i migliori sulla piazza. Purtroppo ho dovuto rendere questo modello perché ha solo gli attacchi AM4 e ho deciso di tornare ad Intel causa gravi problemi che ho riscontrato sulle nuove piattaforme AMD, in particolare sul chipset della scheda madre.

> 24 hourCompré un 3700X y primero intenté usar el ventilador que viene de serie (Wraith Prism). La temperatura con tests de carga oscilaba mucho (en algunos test más exigentes como Aida64 incluso superaba los 90 grados) y jugando se ponía a unos 78-80 grados, pero lo peor es que el ventilador era muy ruidoso, por lo que empecé a mirar alternativas de disipadores por aire y dí con este Noctua no puedo estar más contento.

> 24 hourAlways trust noctua to deliver high quality cooling only at the cost of an ugly looking fan haha

> 24 hourI thought the stock cooler would be fine, Ryzen 5. Was running at 50C at idle. 75-80C when playing Cities Skylines. From research this seemed to within specs. However I decided to install this to help with longevity. Now CPU temps are 30-35C idle and 55C with the same game running.

> 24 hourI just finished installing this cooler on my Ryzen 5 5600x so please keep in mind this is a very early review.

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. |
