Review on Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4: Top-Tier CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Brown) by Jamal Webb

I recently upgraded my system to an AMD 3900xt and needed a cooler. My Cooler Master 212 has served me well for the i5 system I've used over the past few years, but I figured I should go with this brand for the 3900xt build given the hotter CPU loads and rave online reviews try out. I decided between this and Noctua U14S. I was concerned about the space between my graphics card and the motherboard cooler (ASUS B550M-Plus WiFi), but it looks like I could easily use a bigger cooler. Either way, this smaller cooler keeps the chip cool. As soon as you open the box you can judge the quality of the product. It is well packaged and contains everything you need. They include multiple mounts so you can mount it in different orientations, a tube of thermal grease, additional mounts for multiple fans, and anti-vibration bumpers. The mounting system on this cooler is amazing. No need to guess about the voltage on the cooler. You basically just tighten the screws until they stop turning. It doesn't need to be rotated, just as far as it will go. You don't even need a screwdriver as they include a tool. The fan is great. Your price is justified. They're pretty quiet and move a decent amount of air. The brown color doesn't bother me. I plan to buy them separately as case fans since they are so quiet. My first Noctua product but probably not the last.
