> 3 dayThis is hands down the best CPU cooler I could have asked for! It was not that hard to install and my temps have gone down significantly! I was using the stock cooler for ryzen 5 3600 and I was getting temps around 55-65 with just being on zoom and having a word doc open. Now on idle I am around 34-40 degrees. I even played msfs2020 and lingered around 60-70 degrees! My opinion do not get an AIO Get this instead!

> 3 dayit does its job very well at cooling my 5600x when playing triple A games but i wish the mounting brackets werent so tedious to install as well as maybe add a 2nd fan as a bundle ? that would be huge personally Ive bought an additional noctua fan to mount with this cooler for a push pull configuration

> 3 dayIts amazing ,using it on ryzen 7 5700x and idle temps are around 30-40C and when using or playing intensive games it reaches around 65C . Overall 10/10 would recommend to buy this rather than cheap AIO or cheaper air cooler .

> 3 dayI ordered this cooler for my pre-built pc Omen 25L/ 30L ATX, Ryzen 7. Cooler would fit however the screws do not fit the backplate. I also cannot line up the brackets with the backplate. The brackets are about 1/4 off on my motherboard. I notice others had the same issue. Its possible to buy a new retention kit, but now I feel like I cant trust the cooler to keep the CPU cool, if something as little as brackets, are defective. CPU are just too expensive to replace. Unfortunately, I had to return it, I cant honestly recommend this Cooler, but the sell I do recommend. Fast shipping, promp return and refund with no issues.

> 3 dayCools well but not an easy install. The directions did not match my board even though it stated the fan would. However, I found a way to mount it ok.

Greater than one weekretention screws on the cooler wouldnt mount to the bracket would grip to the screw mounts on the bracket making it a expensive paper weight sending it back dissapointed with quality

The NH-U12S chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s NH-U12S premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven slim-tower heatsink design and NF-F12 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U12S’s successful formula of fusing excellent cooling performance with superb quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a highly compatible 120mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent case and PCIe compatibilityStanding 158mm tall, the NH-U12S is short enough to fit most modern mid- or high-end tower cases. Measuring 125mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on most standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups. |
100% RAM compatibilityThanks to its slim design with only 45mm fin depth, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and ensures 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts worldwide, the Noctua’s premium-quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned for combining superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation. |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC1 and NA-HC2 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U12S chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
