  • 3 años enfriando un 12600k
Excelente discipador, lo tengo hace 3 años con un 12600k y ha funcionado perfecto, algunos decían que ese procesador tenía que ir con líquida, que este seria insuficiente por lo pequeño, que no podría con un serie K pero en juegos como Cyber Punk y Elden Ring mantuvo las temperaturas en promedio de 64°c, máximo 69°c. Aclaro que no hago OC. ... show more

  • Great Cooler
My third CPU cooler from this manufacturer, clean design, keeps things cool, never had a need to transition to liquid cooling.

  • Lives up to the Noctua name for half the price
Purchased this with the optional second fan as an upgrade from the stock cooler that comes with my 5600. I had been looking at purchasing a Noctua cooler, specifically the NH-U12A or the NH-U12S but could not justify pulling the trigger on a $100+ cooler when the stock cooler was doing a good enough job. But then I found this cooler with basically the same performance for half the price, and I knew I had to get it. PROS: -AMAZING cooling! With the stock cooler, my CPU would get to 90+ degrees while performing a 10 minute Cinebench. With this cooler, it barely gets above 60 degrees while performing a 30 minute Cinebench test. While gaming, even under the most CPU stressing game I have (Dead Space Remake) it stays under 65 degrees with PBO enabled. -This thing is QUIET! Like I said, I had purchased the secondary fan for a push/pull configuration on my cooler and even with the second fan, this thing is silent. Really the only noise coming from my PC is from the GPU fans spinning up. Before, my PC was noisy with the stock cooler, but I didn't realize HOW noisy it was until I put this one in. -You cannot overtighten this cooler because of the spring loaded screws on the cooler -Comes with Noctua thermal paste pre applied, so you do not have to worry about paste, but get some just in case. Arctic mx-4 is $5 extra CONS: -It is tough to get the mounting hardware on without help. I managed to do it but it would be 100x easier with someone helping, or by removing the MOBO from the case. But I was lazy and didn't want to deal with that. Plus, some of the standoffs for my board are under where the fans end up sitting, so I still would have had issues with it. -Some people have had issues with motherboard compatibility, but this could be user error. I use a Gigabyte B550M DS3H and had no issues. This cooler uses the backplate that came with the board for AM4. Intel uses the included backplate. -The threads for the screws are on the mounting hardware, and when you loosen the screws on the cooler, they are not free of the screws on the mounting hardware, keeping you from turning the cooler to break the seal from the thermal paste. Since this comes with Noctua paste pre applied, good luck getting this off without a fight. -Attaching the fans is hard as hell, especially if you do it in your case. I found that doing the secondary fan (if you buy one) first, then the front fan is WAY easier than doing it the other way. And the fans might block standoff screws if you put them on outside of the case. I highly recommend this cooler, and its good to see that the Noctua name holds up even on a more budget option. ... show more

  • Works for an i9!
Put this on my wife's i9-10900k that we run at stock settings. Never touches 80c in a fractal meshify 2 case. This cooler is crazy underrated. I don't think there's a cpu out that this thing won't keep cool so long as you're not overclocking. Two thumbs up.

  • Great for 5800x
Bought this to cool my 5800x temps in the mid 30s on idle, and never touching 80c. Max temp was 77c. Installing was a breeze. Very happy.

  • The Best
Noctua makes the best fans and coolers. After having a watercooler take a crap on me and frying my cpu, I’ll never buy another one. You just can’t tell when it’s failing like you can with a fan cooler by visual inspection. The only analog cooler I trust is a Noctua.

  • Bad documentation, read carefully my review about AM5 offset issue
The cooler is very good made, but the vendor definitely has a mess with included manual. It misleads customers with AM5 socket, saying they must use -7mm offset. It's wrong - with this offset the cooler will contact 2/3 of CPU radiator surface. It must be installed with zero offset, this way it will be perfectly on the center of CPU (7800x3d in my case). Installing it wrong you will get not very efficient cooling. But if properly installed - it's very decent cooler, but overpriced in comparison with competitors. ... show more
