Pros & Cons
Pros
I had to press a little hard to get the mounting components to screw together. I think this is a testament to how well designed it is that you have just enough to bring the parts together without anything extra poking out further than it should. Mount... Read More
Fan noise is better than the coolers i usually encounter bundled with processors and full speed isn't really loud. Noise level ramps up a bit when playing games, but its quite tolerable.
Performance is very good. Can't recommend this item enough. Outstanding device. By far, this wins the best cooler in my book for budget wise, and of how efficient it is.
This cooler is enough to cool a ryzen 5900x without the extra bulk of another tower. Whatever else you want to throw at it short of a threadripper or xeon will not be a problem, and this model only has a singular fan. ryzen 5 3600 16gb g. wraith spire... Read More
The product itself delivers, but the complete experience made me an immediate noctua fan. Nh-u12s redux is basically same radiator but 4 pipes instead of 5 and a bit less sophisticated fan but at higher rpm.
Highlights
Quality
Excellent fit and finish to the components.
Very well made, simple to install and keep my cpu cool!
Staggering upgrade after my old cooler master hyper 212 evo atrocity (ironically thebest selling one on amazon), with horrid mo... Read More

Price
Bit pricey but quality worth every penny.
Price is worth it, quality is worth it.
- price: acceptable, you definitely get what you pay for here.
For this expensive of a cooler, this is a let down.
Shipping
Delivery from noctua says min 20 days for brackets or you can purchase them from amazon for extra.
I had to also order the nm-i3 kit from noctua (ships from austria and take a few weeks to arrive).
Packaging/appearance
- packaging: everything is neatly packed inside and well secured.
Packaging is extremely premium and professional, and includes both intel and amd mounting kits.
Noctua had a handy look-up table on their website to show that the cooler wouldn't fit my new chipset, but they also had a new ... Read More
Looks right, but upon looking at the box again it shows the bracket number is different.
Competitiveness
No other cooler performs as well as noctus at any price point.
If your building a pc, you just cant go wrong with the noctua brand - also, my pc has other noctua case fans.
If you want a more economical cooler noctua has nh-u12s redux that is basically same radiator but 4 pipes instead of 5 and a bi... Read More
