> 24 hourThe product came in two days early. The packaging was great. Everything was exactly what it was suppose to be. The product was big and beautiful. The only down fall was that it did not fit my case. I have a Thermaltake Urban T31 case. I had to ship it back, luckily I got my full refund. I wish it wouldve fit. :( I wouldve loved it even more. It does not deserve anything lower then a 5 stars. It was my my fault for not checking before ordering.

> 24 hourEdit: 12/8/2022: Just received the bracket from the manufacturer. Everything works. The Amazon kit came from somebody who returned it with the wrong part. Customer service is good.

> 24 hourLove the design, tried out the vg gts on recent build but had to abandon due to interference with ram. This has plenty of clearance. I also like the ease of going to a push pull configuration with the fans. Overall well thought out product.

> 24 hourCest un très bon rapport qualité prix qui répond pour le moment aux besoins de refroidissement de la i7 ; cest le pc de mon fils et il a prix le choix de ne pas faire d overclocking et donc logique que tout se passe pour le mieux. En général la température processeur est autour de 46°

> 24 hourIl dissipatore Noctua NH-U12S sostituisce un economico Arctic Freezer Pro Rev2 montato su una cpu Intel I5-7600, a parità di condizioni i miglioramenti in termini di temperature della Cpu si attestano sui 5-7°, possono sembrare pochi ma non lo sono visto che partivo non da un dissipatore stock ma da un premium entry level (test eseguiti con Prime e il benchmark di Gears Of War4), quindi si intuisce che dato il costo triplo del Noctua il dissipatore della Arctic considerato il prezzo ne esce molto bene ma non cè dubbio che le prestazioni e la qualità costruttiva del dissipatore austriaco siano su unaltro livello.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall 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 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. |
