Review on 🌬️ Noctua NA-HC2 chromax.White Heatsink Cover: Enhance NH-U12S, NH-U12S TR4-SP3, NH-U12S DX-3647 & NH-U12S SE-AM4 with Stylish White Upgrade by David Romero

Don't get me wrong, I love Noctua. but like many of you, I'm not very keen on the "beige vision" that is her base color scheme. Thank you for the Chromax line. Added that and a Fractal AL120 (PWM) RGB fan to replace the stock fan and it's a nice touch. As with most noctua products, installation is simple and uncomplicated. A small metal clip holds a plastic baseplate with magnets to the cooler itself, then the cover is simply slid onto the front (or top, depending on how you look at it) and held in place with a magnet. The color insert behind the arrows is changeable and is available in a variety of colors. Replacing is also relatively easy, just removing the outer magnetic cover, inserting a new colored insert, and snapping the cover back onto the heatsink. The lid doesn't seem to affect the temperature either, tests were done with it. on and off, and I didn't see a statistically significant change (0.01°C, which could just be a difference in room temperature). The only downside is the price - maybe a bit cheaper but definitely worth it for me. It's well built and looks great!
