Noctua NH-D12L Chromax.black Low-Height Air CPU Cooler
The Noctua NH-D12L Chromax.black is a low-height, 120mm class CPU cooler. It is conceived to combine outstanding quiet cooling performance with superior case compatibility. At a height of only 145mm, it fits many 4U server racks and narrow tower cases that previously needed smaller 92mm fans. It achieves a level of efficiency that surpasses many full-height 120mm models.
Award-Winning Performance and Low-Height Design:
The NH-D12L has proven it can keep up with larger coolers despite its reduced height. Its five heatpipe dual-tower design and state-of-the-art NF-A12x25r 120mm fan deliver more performance at a lower height. Thanks to its single-fan configuration and asymmetrical fin stacks, it provides 100% RAM compatibility on AMD AM5/AM4 and Intel LGA1851/1700/1200 by staying clear of the memory slots. Furthermore, its black-coated heatsink, fan, and mounting parts make it ideal for all-black builds.
Quiet Operation with PWM Control:
The NF-A12x25r PWM fan supports automatic speed control through the motherboard. This provides full performance under load and virtually silent operation at idle. In addition, the maximum fan speed can be reduced from 2000 RPM to 1700 RPM with the supplied Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.). This gives you even quieter operation. Consequently, you can enjoy your work or gaming with minimal noise.
Broad Compatibility and Robust Construction:
The NH-D12L Chromax.black is designed for broad compatibility. It supports a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets, including Intel LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200, LGA115x, and AMD AM5, AM4. The included SecuFirm2™ mounting system ensures a secure and straightforward installation process. For AMD AM5 users, an offset mounting option is available. This can further reduce CPU temperatures by achieving better contact over the processor’s hotspots. The cooler’s fins are soldered to the heatpipes. This guarantees a superior thermal interface that does not deteriorate over time. Therefore, it offers a robust and long-lasting cooling solution.
Comprehensive Accessories for Easy Installation:
The cooler comes with a comprehensive accessory kit. This includes an NF-A12x25r PWM chromax.black premium fan, a Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.), and NT-H1 high-grade thermal compound. The kit also includes a SecuFirm2™ mounting kit and a Noctua Metal Case-Badge. This complete package simplifies the setup process. As a result, you get a premium experience right out of the box.
