If you are reading this it means you already know it's the best Air cooler so stop your research and get it immediately. It keeps my 5800X cool with PBO enabled and preforms similar to my previous 240 AIO. It gives your build a premium look while staying silent even under full load and backed by a 6 years warranty it just great.

This is an excellent air cooler for powerful processors on resources intensive tasks. Installed on i9 13900, that took 20 mins watching youtube video with plain instructions. Check the specs of cabinet to ensure no space issues. I have Corsair 4000D accommodating this cooler easily.Results were astounding. On stress test CPU was stable at 80 degree Celsius and on ordinary usage it was below 35. Does the job perfect.

The media could not be loaded. It's completely compatible with latest amd mb am5 socket and latest intel mb lga 1700 socket.I installed at a ryzen 5 3600x cpu in Corsair spec 01 cabinet with msi b550 gaming carbon wifi mb.After that at ideal mode, I get 38-40°c temp at cpu. At gaming mode, I get 60-65°c temp at latest game for pc God of war, Jedi Survivor, Spider-Man, Uncharted the legacy of thieves.You will clearly see the 10°c temp difference between ryzen 5 3600x stock cooler to Noctua nh u 12a. And very less noise.The name Noctua is enough to trust build quality. Though some corner fins and middle fins(where clips of fans should be locked) slightly bends due to packaging or Amazon delivery service.And It clearly doesn't hang over the ram you can clearly see from the given images.You will really see the improved performance of your system.

Works better that expected fits well with rgb ram too. For a hotter climate the cooling is better than AIO liquid cooler.

My current air cooler is a Scythe Fuma1, which is working very well with a 3 fan config; temps are close to those reported by the Noctua D-15; the D-15 requires a really big case. I bought this purely as a standby, and because there was a very good price drop (Rs. 15000/= to Rs 9000/=).Being a Noctua, it has class. The finish is in a different league as compared to the Scythe Fuma; the Noctua has its fins soldered to the heat pipes, the Scythe does not have this feature (this translates to better cooling). I did a trial run with this cooler. Firstly, the installation was significantly easier than the Fuma. During Cinebench23, the Noctua gave the same temps as the Fuma (Fuma 3 fans vs Noctua 2 fans). After testing, I changed back to the Fuma; since I am using RGB fans, the Fuma looks a lot better. The Noctua, is a great buy for the price; I am keeping it as a standby.

Its a very good Air cooler, even under intense load its temp doesnt exceed 75 degrees. Most of all its not bulky and it does its job really well. if you are looking for a air cooler i would recommend you to get this. its a bit pricey compared to others but the fans are so quite u will not even know its running so quite.

I don't like Air coolers because of the bulky size and sharp edges. I have an NZXT x53 but it will fail because of the pump. After receiving Noctua my whole idea about the air cooler has changed.PROS.1. 10/10 build quality2. 10/10 Excellent packaging3. 10/10 Accessories provided4. 10/10 Very Low Noise levels5. 10/10 User serviceable6. 10/10 Will last years7. 10/10 I purchased it for 9K from Amazon (Feeling Lucky)8. 10/10 No sharp edges and overall comfortable to hold in hands9. 10/10 Compact size and can be installed in mid sized cabinets10. 10/10 it will change your outlook too towards air coolersCONS.1. There is no factory seal on the box so in India it is possible that your local dealer will open the box and repack it. so beware.OVERALL SATISFIED with the product, Amazon and thanks to other reviews.
