Pros and cons

According to our processor cooler expert
  • Thanks to a standard noise level of 22.4dBA and the Low Noise Adapter, this product is more silent than most coolers.
  • The cooler is 15.8 centimeters high, so it fits in many computer cases.
  • You get a 6-year warranty from Noctua.
  • Do you have a (Mini) ITX or Micro ATX computer case? Then it is possible that this cooler is too high. Measure this for certainty.

Description

The Noctua NH-U12S Chromax Black is a processor cooler that fits on nearly every socket. The copper heat pipes conduct heat from the processor to the fan more efficiently than those made of aluminum. The NH-U12S has a height of 15.8 centimeters. As a result, it fits in many computer cases. And since it's just 7.1 centimeters thick, it won't get in the way of your RAM modules. The anti-vibration pads ensure that the processor doesn't vibrate along when your fan spins, which expands the lifespan of your processor. Thanks to the included Low Noise Adapter (LNA), the fan makes less noise at low and average temperatures. You get a 6-year warranty from Noctua. This cooler only includes 1 fan, but there is room for a second fan.

Overall great choice for a cool CPU and zero noise

  • Extremely silent even at maximum speed
  • slim look
  • Performance can be improved with extra fan, but it becomes expensive

If I have to buy a CPU Cooler again, I will 100% buy this on

  • Clear manual
  • Additional materials, such as: thermal paste, screws, backplate, etc.
  • When attaching you have to use a little more force than indicated

for the time being a more than sufficient, quiet, extra cost

  • black; fits neatly with the interior of the stand alone
  • is nice and quiet with the 'silincer'
  • for the time being, the temp of the cpu is reduced by 25 to 30% lower
  • costs more because it is black??

As a replacement for the bad cooler that came with the CPU, it does what it has to do for the time being. Cooling the CPU without getting a blue screen with error messages that don't tell me what the problem is....
