Noctua NH-D15 chromax.Black, Dual-Tower CPU Cooler (140mm, Black)

Was basically impossible to get the GPU I wanted, so I went pre-built. Cyberpower PC Ryzen 7 3700X, Asus Prime B550M-A AC motherboard, Asus RTX 3060 TI DUAL MINI, EVGA 600 Gold PSU. The CPU cooler it came with was almost useless; it reached 90 C one time while playing Star Citizen (runs hot in that game due to optimization issues). Heres the result, the NH D15 reduced the temp to 60 C where it used to be 85 - 90 C. Unbelievable! Dying Light 2 with full Ultra Raytracing mode used to run at 40-ish FPS outside (with all foliage, day time lighting, etc) and about 60 inside. Now, it runs at 70-75 FPS outside and around 100 FPS inside. Here, outside means not in a building in-game.

These fans are so quiet. I have a 3700x overclocked to 4.2ghz, and this setup keeps it nice and cool. It never even gets above 65 degrees on a heavy load. Even at its worst, the noise from these fans is practically imperceptible. Noctua for life!

My computer is about 5 years old, im running:

Hatte davor einen MA 610P auf meiner i9-9900K CPU. Die CPU erzeugt viel Hitze und verlangt Kühlern einiges ab. Auf Höchstleistung der CPU waren die Lüfter laut und die Temperatur hoch. Der neue Noctua NH-D15 kühlt die CPU deutlich stärker und ist zugleich viel leiser. Die Temperatur konnte um mindestens 10-20 Grad gesenkt werden und auf Höchstleistung sogar noch mehr und gleichzeitig ist der Lüfter viel leiser! Mit Abstand der beste Kühler den ich je hatte. Einbau war auch total unkompliziert und es wird alles, was man für den Einbau brauchen könnte mitgeliefert. Klare Kaufempfehlung von mir!

Pretty much the best CPU cooler that you can get. It was packaged well, easy to unpack and install.

Noctua es una maravilla, sus productos son de alta calidad, me sorprendió la primera vez que probé el NH-D15, casi no se escucha, la instalación es sencilla, funciona perfecto con el i7 13700k.

Un grand bravo a Noctua pour la qualité de ces produits qui est comme dhabitude au rendez-vous.

This is the best air-cooler on the market. can cool anything I throw at it definitely worth the money. I would most certainly buy this again.

I’m not sure why it was so difficult to install but I felt that I had to use quite a bit of force for the springs to compress so that I could actually start threading the screw. Other than that, it is bigger than I expected, but it works beautifully.

Really good cooler. Quiet and powerful at the same time. This is probably one of the best air cooler you can buy. You cannot do better on this price. Unless you go with a custom water cooler or a chiller you cannot beat the performance of the Noctua NH-D15. Be aware of the size before you buy it. Be sure you have enough clearance in the computer tower.
