Noctua NH-U12A, Premium CPU Cooler with High-Performance Quiet NF-A12x25 PWM Fans (120mm, Brown)

Description

The NH-U12A is the latest, 5th generation of Noctuau2019s NH-U12 series of 120mm size premium-quality quiet CPU coolers. Conceived to push the envelope of the 120mm form factor, it combines two of Noctuau2019s flagship model NF-A12x25 PWM 120mm fans with a completely redesigned heatsink featuring 7 heatpipes and an increased fin surface area for superior heat dissipation. This way, the NH-U12A can rival the performance of many 140mm size coolers while offering 120mm class case and PCIe compatibility. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctuau2019s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12A is a deluxe choice that combines top-tier performance with excellent compatibility and outstanding quietness of operation.Classic 120mm tower size for excellent overall compatibility Standing 158mm tall, the NH-U12A 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 compatibility on LGA1851/LGA1700 and AM4/AM5 Due to its asymmetric design, the NH-U12A does not overhang the RAM slots on Intel LGA1851/LGA1700/LGA1200/LGA115and AMD AM4/AM5 based motherboards, which ensures easy access to the modules and 100% compatibility with DIMMs that feature tall heat-spreaders.Dual NF-A12 120mm fans The NF-A12x25 is a highly optimised next-generation 120mm fan that integrates Noctuau2019s latest innovations in aerodynamic engineering in order to achieve an unprecedented level of quiet cooling performance. Using this elite-class fan in a push/pull dual fan configuration is one of the cornerstones of the NH-U12Au2019s commanding performance and acoustic efficiency.NT-H1 thermal compound Noctuau2019s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability. Chosen again and again by overclockers and enthusiast users worldwide, it has established itself as a benchmark for premium-quality thermal compounds.Measurements Height (without fan): 158 mm Width (without fan): 125 mm Depth (without fan): 58 mm Height (with fan): 158 mm Width (with fan): 125 mm Depth (with fan): 112 mm Weight (without fan): 760 g Weight (with fan): 1220 g Materials Copper (base and heat-pipes), aluminium (cooling fins), soldered joints & nickel platingCooler Specifications Scope of delivery 2NF-A12x25 PWM premium fan 2NA-RC14 Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A) NA-YC1 4-pin PWM y-cable SecuFirm2 mounting kit NT-H1 high-grade thermal compound Noctua Metal Case-Badge Fan compatibility 120x120x25140mm performance in 120mm size Thanks to its completely revised 7 heatpipe layout, 37% more fin surface area and a dual fan push/pull configuration that uses the new, state-of-the-art NF-A12x25 fans, the NH-U12A can actually match or even outperform many 140mm sized coolers.

140mm class performance in 120mm size: 7 heatpipes, more surface area and a dual fan configuration with state-of-the-art NF-A12x25 fans allow the NH-U12A to rival many 140mm size coolers! Excellent case, RAM and PCIe compatibility: Fits most tower cases (158mm height), doesnu2019t overhang the RAM slots on LGA17xx, LGA1200 and AM4, doesnu2019t block the PCIe on most ATX and Micro-ATX motherboards. Quiet, state-of-the-art NF-A12x25 120mm fans with Low-Noise Adaptors and PWM for automatic speed control: Full cooling performance under load, virtually silent at idle!
