> 3 dayHas been cooling my build for a while and it is doing well. Although it only has one of the 2 fans attached due to the fan not able to clear the ram on one side and the mother board itself on the other. The second fan is about a 10% difference in temp.

> 3 dayThis is just a superb product. I was expecting something very loud, but surprisingly its practically soundless, which is really great. CPU temps are solid, hovering around 30 degrees while idling and in the low 60s under load. The instructions are clear and concise, which is excellent since I had no prior experience working on computers and the steps were easy to follow. Would definately buy again.

> 3 dayThis cpu cooler is the sh@t. Easy to install, looks great and my cpu never went over 60 c even when I overclock it. Just be sure it can fit in your case its pretty big and its so quiet. I had to look in my case to see if the fans were working a couple of times.

> 3 dayHi, für Alle, die einen wirklich leisen Lüfter mit extrem guter Kühlleistung suchen, ist der NH-D15 absolut die richtige Wahl. Den Lüfter über den RAMs kann man z.B. nach dem Einbau der RAMs installieren um möglichst wenig an zusätzlicher Höhe zu benötigen, denn groß ist der Lüfter :) -> deshalb sollte man beim Kauf eines Gehäuses lieber die etwas breiteren nehmen, dann kann man auch die linke Seite des Gehäuses schließen. Bei mir macht der NH-D15 seinen Dienst auf einer 13600K (LGA 1700) und die Temperatur ohne Last kommt nicht über 29°C (mit der beiliegenden WLP von Noctua) - bisher keine negativen Punkte entdeckt. Im Vergleich dazu, die 12600 er CPU hat mit dem Boxed Kühler ca 36°C ohne Last, obwohl sie nur 65W und die 13600K 125W zieht. Falls ich es nicht vergesse werde ich zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt noch T-Werte unter Last ergänzen.

> 3 dayQuiet when fans arent spinning quickly and even when they are the sound isnt unpleasant, great cooling capacity, feels quite secure when mounted despite its size, and actually looks pretty cool hanging off my motherboard in my opinion. As others have said, the packaging is very secure. It is pretty big (my case has lots of clearance however), but its lighter than it looks. Im not so bothered by the fan colours.

Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua’s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14’s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.

Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15"s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15"s superior efficiency. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high end RAM modules on the market. In dual fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard height RAM (up to 32mm). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua"s premium class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua"s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua"s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |
