When I bought it, I was very afraid that it wouldn’t fit into my zalman z9 . got in) and a couple more millimeters left))) but in order to open the lid without clinging to the cooler, I had to tear off one of the rivets that hold the plastic window. . For that kind of money, it could cool better - 6850k in easy overclocking to 4.3 - 77 degrees in Hades and 57 in workload, 28-33 in idle . in general, not so bad if you consider that the system unit is a window close to a thick a piece of foam…

The scalped 8600k processor accelerates to 4.9 GHz without raising the voltage, it keeps 32-37 degrees in idle, 65-70 degrees in load. 22/09/19. I overclocked it to 5.1 GHz with raising the voltage by 0.065v, (they write that voltage above 1.40v is not recommended, chip degradation may begin), idle temperatures are the same, 2-3 degrees higher in load, in general, after that I began to respect Noctua )

Before that, I had a boxed cooler on the i5-3570k (there was no need to overclock, no problems with temperature), but then in the summer I decided to play the old but demanding Bioshock Remastered game, and according to the measurements, it turned out that the processor was heating up by 90+ degrees , and the Radeon 5870 video card is also at a hundred degrees, in short, I was frightened by these numbers and was puzzled by a good cooler. By choosing this one, I was counting on an improvement in

Fits easily with Gigabite Z490 Gaming X board in Aero Cool Sixth Element case. The lid does not reach 2 mm, closed easily. Does a great job of cooling the CPU, in this case the i7 10700K. I didn’t check it in tests, but in X-Plane and Prepar3Dv4.5 the temperature does not rise above 65, on average 60. (without overclocking, 8 cores, 4.7 GHz) In idle time 35-40, at a temperature in the room 25-27 gr. It does not block access to the installation of the 1st-2nd memory sticks, it is easy to insert…

This is a top cooler! Its performance is top notch for the price. Please note that I don't play video games or overclock, so I don't need any more cooling for myself and my system than a fan that is inside the PC case. The size and looks are perfect and I have no complaints about it. . It's a really nice looking heatsink and doesn't bog up four RAM modules. I know gamers love these huge, massive devices, but that's not me because the entire motherboard is blocked by them, which I think makes it

Virtually silent. Absorbs heat like no other cooling system I own, including my Corsair H150i 320mm 3-fan system. CinebenchR20 Temps with i9 9900K @ 5.0 GHzHydro H150i Pro: Water cooler in quiet mode, 3 fans in quiet mode = 97°C (low fan noise) Water cooler in balanced mode, 3 fans in quiet mode = 81°C (moderate fan noise) Cooler Water cooler in Extreme mode, 3 fans in quiet mode = 79°C (low fan noise) Extreme mode water cooler, 3 fans in balanced mode = 77°C (moderate fan noise) Extreme mode…

BEST. COOLER. EVER.I "upgraded" with the Corsair H100i V2 (which passed away after 1.5 years of moderate use). The difference in performance is insane. 10-15°C colder when playing? yes believe me Now I'm a firm believer and support air cooling over water cooling and that's the most comfortable. This cooler cannot leak. Yes, everyone has that thought in their heart, right? Seriously, if you have a large case with lots of airflow, this cooler will perform as well or even better than any AIO…

When I was assembling my first PC a few months ago, I bought an NH-D15 without knowing that it was blocking the first PCIe slot on my motherboard. Little did I know at the time that Noctua had a website showing which motherboards would block the first PCIe slot, which was my mistake (don't repeat my mistake, make sure the HSF you want isn't too big for your specific motherboard before you buy it). I got an NH-U12S instead, which worked fine, but I wasn't able to overclock the CPU as much as I…

Excellent CPU cooler. It's simple and I can definitely see how compatible this cooler can be. The fan is quiet and the build quality is good. It comes with 3 different user guides that are easy to understand and follow. I have a small complaint. Installation was easy, down to attaching the fine to the mounting brackets. It was a little difficult to screw. Screw one side too tight and you won't be able to screw the other side. The error rate is surprisingly low. The task becomes even more…

It's not the prettiest, but probably the best air cooler. I've been very happy using the CM Hyper 212 for years, but decided to try something different for my new Ryzen R9 3900X build. So far so good, at 4.2 GHz everything runs smoothly without breaking a sweat. I'll see how far I can take it once I'm confident things will stabilize. My cons relate to installation. On the one hand, the fins are very sharp-edged, which is not uncommon with such heat sinks, the installation requires a rather long

Conclusion Recommendation: Buy if it fits. Your processor will perform MUCH better at a lower temperature. Why I bought it: About once a week my computer would shut down because the CPU overheated to 70C. I had a heavy load on ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0 AM3+ AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8 Core 4.0 GHz (G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) 240-pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866). I have not overclocked. Results: When I cycled 2 of the 8 cores on and off, my standard fan couldn't keep the CPU…

I have used custom water cooling for many years and have always found it good. I've never had a leak or component failure in my ten years of water cooling - mainly because I buy good quality stuff and do my research very carefully. I can offer 240mm radiator. but in my case there is no room for a better heatsink or another heatsink and my system needs to be quite portable. So my only option was to buy a case that might work with my system along with an additional heatsink or two. After looking…

This CPU cooler is outstanding! I have OCD and carefully research and review dozens if not hundreds of coolers and AIOs. Different combinations, different fans, everything. I've been researching the AIO 280-360mm for ages and originally wanted to work with it. I didn't bother with 240s because I knew they could do better without worrying about leaks. After reviewing tests, watching videos, and comparing aesthetics and price, I settled on this one. Noctua NH-D15S. This is the best conditioner…
