Review on Noctua NA-HC2 chromax.Black: Stylish Heatsink Cover for NH-U12S and More (Black) by Francisco Yim

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a heatsink cover

I bought a Noctua NH-U12S chromax.Black cooler and didn't want to use a full CPU dimming scheme. So buying it in white suited my black and white scheme. It is easy to assemble and is held in place by magnets. It is solid when the magnets touch. Make sure the top and sides don't wobble. If you hesitate, move it slightly from side to side. Sooner or later you will feel it shift and snap into place. Although the white almost matches my white case, I'm going to paint it white (it's good to know it's safe to paint) that matches the case and do some steampunk art on it. So it fits my topic. It's a basic radiator cap, so there aren't many pros and cons here. However, I'm deducting a star because €20 is a bit expensive for such a product. In my opinion, Noctua really needs to lower the prices a bit. Don't get me wrong, their products are expensively designed and manufactured in Taiwan where quality standards are higher than China.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Slightly torn
