Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black Air CPU Cooler
The Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black Air CPU Cooler is an award-winning solution that combines dual-tower performance with excellent compatibility. This all-black version of Noctua’s flagship model offers a sleek stealth look while delivering superb quiet cooling efficiency. It stands as a premium choice for enthusiasts seeking a highly compatible heatsink that performs as great as it looks.
Optimized Performance and Superior Compatibility:
High-Compatibility Dual-Tower Design:
Compared to the award-winning NH-D15, the S-version utilizes an off-set, asymmetrical layout and a single NF-A15 fan. This design provides state-of-the-art heatsink performance while maintaining superior RAM and PCIe compatibility. Its recessed lower fins offer 66mm clearance for tall memory heatspreaders or RGB illumination, ensuring compatibility with most high-end RAM modules on the market. Furthermore, the asymmetrical layout clears the top PCIe x16 slot on most current µATX and ATX motherboards, preventing potential blocking issues.
Powerful NF-A15 140mm Fan:
The cooler includes a premium NF-A15 140mm fan. This fan complies with Noctua’s AAO standard and features sophisticated aerodynamic design measures, such as Flow Acceleration Channels. The NF-A15 has quickly earned a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans available. It delivers a maximum airflow of 140.2 m³/h and a static pressure of 2.47 mm-H2O, contributing significantly to the cooler’s superb CPU cooling capabilities.
Quiet Operation and Robust Mounting System:
PWM Control and Low-Noise Adaptor:
The NF-A15 premium fan supports PWM for convenient automatic speed control through the motherboard. Additionally, the included Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.) can reduce the maximum fan speed from 1500 to 1200 RPM, enabling even quieter operation. The fan’s maximum acoustical noise is 24.6 dB(A), which further drops to 19.2 dB(A) with the L.N.A., ensuring a remarkably quiet system.
SecuFirm2™ Multi-Socket Mounting System:
Noctua’s SecuFirm2™ mounting systems are synonymous with quality, safety, and easy installation. The SecuFirm2™ mounting kit included with the NH-D15S supports Intel LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200, LGA115x (LGA1150, LGA1151, LGA1155, LGA1156), and AMD AM5, AM4 sockets. This system ensures straightforward installation and provides perfect contact pressure, standing the test of time even under heavy use.
Enhanced Component Cooling and Premium Aesthetics:
Excellent Component Cooling:
The large NF-A15 fan extends below the fin-stacks. This not only contributes to the NH-D15S’s superb CPU cooling capabilities but also provides massive airflow over surrounding motherboard components and heatsinks. Consequently, it ensures excellent component cooling performance, contributing to overall system stability.
chromax.black Design and Included Accessories:
The NH-D15S chromax.black is entirely black. It features a black coated heatsink, a black fan with black anti-vibration pads, black fan clips, and black mounting parts. This sleek stealth look seamlessly integrates into all-black builds and complements other color schemes. The cooler includes an NF-A15 HS-PWM chromax.black premium fan, NA-RC7 Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.), NT-H1 high-grade thermal compound, black SecuFirm2™ mounting kit, black fan-clips for a second NF-A15 fan (for dual-fan setup), and a Noctua Metal Case-Badge.
