    Me tocó que a veces hace un leve ruido como de turbulencia en las láminas del disipador pero luego lo escucho y es molesto. Es metálico el ruido.

    To start with Id like to point out that unlike some reviews here I did receive the Am4 specific version, the real deal is very clear to identify so Im pleased to receive the correct item.

    Love the design and small form factor of this cooler. Have it mounted on a mini ITX motherboard inside a NZXT H210i. No clearance issues with RAM or side glass. Can fit another fan on the rear for even more cooling power. The only squeeze is with the top fan, which is a normal size Noctua. Though that’s mostly due to the small case and the fact that I could use a thinner profile fan but chose not to.

    Cools my Ryzen 5 1600 much better than my Corsair H100i GTX and is much easier to mount and much much quieter. I highly recommend any of Noctua coolers in you need a cooler for your PC.

    I was using a Noctua NH-L9i on my R7 1800X. Under full load when doing encoding tasks, I would get temps anywhere between 71 and 73C. I put the NH-U12S on today and now when doing those same tasks Im hovering right around 50-51C. This is definitely a better cooler. And it took all of about 10 minutes to install, no adapter brackets like with some of the Coolermaster coolers.

    Noctua non ha bisogno di presentazioni, è semplicemente il top, questa versione non è ingombrante come altre, ma fa il suo lavoro in modo impeccabile. Non lho ancora testato su overclock pesante ma sono sicuro che non deluderà le aspettative. Lo consiglio per i ryzen, il montaggio è estremamente semplice.

    Wraith Spire could not handle my 3.7 OC on my 1700 even with the fan at 100% however once switched to this cooler it has been quiet, easy to install and havent seen temps about 60

    Anche questa volta Noctua non si smentisce, proponendo un dissipatore per CPU Ryzen facile da montare, grazie al kit apposito per socket AM4, e silenzioso. Composto da un radiatore a torre e da una ventola da 12 cm di diametro, che svolge bene il proprio lavoro ottenendo temperature molto piú basse rispetto ai dissipatori AMD. Cé la possibilitá di installare una seconda ventola opzionale. Allinterno della confezione troviamo un tubetto di pasta termica Noctua, un cacciavite a stella a forma di L e tutto loccorrente per il montaggio. Le istruzioni sono semplici e chiare. Garanzia di 6 anni. Non presente il kit di montaggio per processori Intel o altri processori AMD.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility

Standing 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 compatibility

Thanks 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 fan

Recommended 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 compound

Having 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.
