Abstract: The evolution of the CPU has forced manufacturers to change how CPU cooling is approached. There no single correct way, but there are various options, some options are extremely simple while others can be rather complex. In the market today, there are var...
When it comes down to it, the NH-U12S proved to be a very powerful tower cooler while managing to fit all of its performance in a smaller, lighter package than most of its competitors. The other knock against most performance tower coolers is the sheer a...

In its stock form, the NH-U12S falls behind the 140mm dual tower coolers like the Dark Rock Pro 2, Noctua NH-D14, and so on. However if you don’t have the room to accommodate such huge coolers, the choice is made somewhat easier. The NH-U12S...
Abstract: Keeping your processor cool is essential when it comes to keeping your system running smoothly, after all everyone knows what happens when your system overheats: it shuts down or it fries the CPU. Coolers come in many different shapes, sizes, colors and t...
Abstract: The Noctua NH-U12S heatsink is built around five 6mm diameter copper heatpipes and a 108mm tall aluminum fin stack. Where the heatsink interfaces with the processor, we find a beautifully machined nickel plated copper heat spreader. ...
Noctua engineering, Highlevel engineering, Noise/Performance ratio beats anything out there, Premium technologies incrementally add up to great performance, Great performance in a standard 120mm cooler package
Other manufacturers have developed better fan mounting systems, Lives in the shadow of the larger NHU14S…, …I still can't get over the color scheme…
Noctua does it again. I received the NH-U12S alongside its bigger brother, the 140mm NH-U14S. While the larger fans of the NH-U14S were obviously quieter due to their larger diameter (and lower RPMs), the 120mm NH-U12S wasn't too far behind. Designed to f...
Good performance, Easy installation, Quiet operation, Quality made, Extras included
None that I found
When it comes to choosing an aftermarket CPU cooler there are a lot of things to think about. One of the biggest concerns is if it will fit with your current memory. A lot of enthusiast memory has larger heatspreaders, which can get in the way of many CP...
Unboxing a Noctua product is one of the truly great treats in the reviewers world. There's a real sense of quality and class from the outset, and although the inner boxing is brown card, even its thin sturdiness belies quality and simplicity rather than...
Abstract: Noctua keeps rolling along with their high end coolers designed to tame the heat of today's modern processors. In this review we will be taking a look at two of their new heatpipe tower coolers, the NH-U12S and the NH-U14S. As you might be able to figure out these coolers feature a 12cm and 14cm fan, respectively, and are the latest in their award winning U-series of coolers. The coolers themselves implement U-shaped heatpipes within a compact array of fins intended to provide broad compatibility with a variety of systems, especially when it comes to avoiding interference with system memory...
