Noctua NH-U12S: Ultimate Cooling 🔶 Solution with NF-F12 120mm Fan (Brown) Review

For a long time I chose the best for cooling 9600kf in overclocking to 5. Now I have come to 4.9 GHz and 1.38 volts, the maximum temperature in the tests is 75 - I have not seen higher. In games ~ 73 limit. Fractal design focus G case.

In use for 3 years now. It cools perfectly, you can safely count on the round-the-clock operation of the computer without high temperatures under 100% loads. The system has a constant Turbo Boost at 4.7 GHz. Temperatures in normal tasks such as browsing with dozens of tabs and autoloading work programs heat up the processor up to 35 degrees. What is optimal. Operating temperatures with a load of up to 60 degrees, which is also optimal. Processor i5 - 9600K without additional overclocking. The…

Overall rating for the cooler and support service (5+1)/2. Received a defective model. Confident in the quality of products from this company, set and forget. Worked for almost a year with an Intel I5-7600K processor and a few months with an I7 8700K. After replacing the processor, I found that it did not fit tightly to the processor on one side (it was corrected by turning the cooler) and the general curvature of the cooler. Naturally, there were no mechanical effects and traces from them…

Once again, he tied his fate with Noctua and did not regret it. Installation is just a song, the appearance is awesome, no unnecessary pontoons, the performance is on top. Entered the Zalman i3 case as a native. In order for the processor to completely freeze, I hooked up a second cooler, also Noctua, to this masterpiece. Core temperature at idle 26 degrees, Intel Core i5 9400F processor.

It took me a long time to decide: to take liquid cooling or a tower. As a result, I decided that I was not ready to lose a video card or something else in the event of a LSS leak and took Noctua. And I didn't guess. More than a year of experience. Noisier not a decibel) Even upon unpacking, you feel that this cooler belongs to the premium segment. Everything is quality made. Not flimsy. Easy to assemble, easy to install. Works very quietly. The fans on the case are noisier. Managed to overclock

Costs on i7-7700. With the bundled side-mounted cooler, there were constant sounds of the fan overclocking, it was infuriating. With Noctua, silence, only the video card is audible, it has been working for more than 3 years.

Already bought two coolers. The first is a home server with 24/7 operation, which was assembled with an emphasis on silence and reliability. A year later, when assembling a desktop PC, I could not resist, I bought a second one and I do not regret it. In combination with a power supply that can turn off the fan at low load (for example, the Corsair RM series), you get a silent system.

As I already wrote, even after tuning the VAZ, forgive Thermaltake, it didn’t work so quietly and well. Therefore, if you want silence and good cooling, take it and do not choose anything else, otherwise you will waste your money, do not repeat my mistake, take this one right away. For the heap, all the other fans in the case are also on Noctua and you will experience silence!

I took a Deepcool CK-11508 to replace . The deepcool has a round area of ​​\u200b\u200bcontact with the processor - the size of a 10 coin. At Noctua, the pad touches the processor completely. Asrock p67 pro se board, i7-2600 processor, overclocked to 3400, in a calm state (during normal operation of the cooler, and it worked intermittently - it wants to spin, it wants not) processor temperature = 49 C. Under load - up to 65C (again during normal cooler operation). I noticed that the computer…

Previously, on my processor (i7-4770k) there was a box version cooler, now it’s just awesome for the first time, I even thought that it didn’t work at all. without load, it was spinning at the lowest speed, with a load it was 100-200 rpm more. And then I got used to it and the silence from him did not hear anything at all. The kit includes several mounts, thermal paste, instructions and even a special screwdriver. Noctua did their best. Now I'm thinking of changing the coolers in the case to…

I put the cooler on the i7-7700K, which has a power dissipation of about 120W. I did not install a resistor adapter. Cooler is not audible at all! It’s not that it doesn’t go to maximum speed, but it rarely even rises to 1000! Check compatibility with motherboards on the website of the cooler manufacturer, because it may happen that the memory or video card will not fit.

For a long time I was looking for chromax black, after all, the original color with brown notes is very repulsive. Successfully picked up at a reasonable price. Happy as an elephant. The quality is on top, the paint does not fly around when removing the turntable repeatedly. Includes additional brackets for one more turntable. Top thermal grease in a syringe included, which is enough for 5+ applications. All tests described on the Internet are true. Quiet even under load (compared to my old…

Installed on i7-4790, did not overclock; idle temperature - 34°C, in "heavy" games - around 50°C, maximum in the test - 71°C. The price is a little higher than we would like, but it is justified by the build quality and parts. The cooler is nice to print and assemble (reminds me of Ikea furniture) - kits for different systems are arranged in different boxes, each with its own instructions. The kit includes a noise-reducing adapter (it seems quite quiet to me even without it), a full syringe…

Indeed, even at the time of unpacking and installation, the quality is felt: a mounting plate made of 2mm steel, wherever necessary - spring or rubber dampers. After switching on, a visual check is needed to make sure that the cooler is really working, because. without load, it turns 300 rpm, which is not audible at all I didn’t test heavy loads, I have an i7-4770 without overclocking. It may not be suitable for overclockers, but for quiet home use - that's it!

screwing the platform fasteners onto socket 1151, one of the legs of the back plate broke off with minimal effort, how it is possible for such a company is not clear, of course, we will not forget in which country we live, of course, more than one store will not accept this under warranty, and they will even say that he himself broke, use it yourself, thanks for the piece of aluminum for 7000.
