The Harry Potter of ventirades
For me it's magic. It looks like a ventirad with an (ugly) fan like all the others. And yet... No noise and cooler than my old WaterCooling

This is the eighth one I've bought, for myself and others.
It's not noisy.
Of course, you also have to manage the fans of the case.Review automatically translated -

Nothing to complain about
I was expecting silence, but not that much! I was expecting efficiency because of its reputation, but I'm surprised, my ryzen 3700x ran for 10 hours at 100% in a room at 30 degrees last night and didn't exceed 69.5, while remaining in total silence, with or without headphones, you just don't hear it! the assembly is childish, really nothing to complain about (personally I use it as a push system, not as a suction system or double fan)
I recommend it without hesitation, on the other hand it is massive (in height only, so it does not interfere with the ram, gc or anything) and knowing that it is provided with several supports, it is usable even if we change intel to amd etc. so it is a good investment ^^Review automatically translated -

Well
Well for the cooling, the fan at full power is RELATIVELY noisy, of course nothing like a stock ventirad, but more than a BeQuiet Silent Wing3, I replaced it with this one without any problem.

Easy note
Easy to install, documentation in French, efficient ventirad and no led since it is not a Christmas tree but a ventirad.
The I9 9900 runs at less than 50°C and some peaks at 65°C.
As for noise, you can't hear it.
In short, NOCTUA quality without the gimmicks.Review automatically translated -

I'm disappointed, can't do better for the price...For the radiator 4/10, and for the fan 3/10.
The performance is mediocre even with a good thermal paste...Review automatically translated -

A top-notch ventirad
I have nothing to say about this product, LDLC is always good about delivery times, the product itself is perfect. The product itself is perfect, cools my CPU perfectly, other ventirads don't exist anymore for me.

Perfect
Nhu12s originally bought for an x4 860k, perfect at the time for cooling, even oc.
Upgraded to a ryzen 1600, am4 kit offered by noctua and received within 3 days.
Fan set to start at 40°.
Under windows in office use: the fan does not turn.... yes it is fanless (35° max).
In bench or games, it does not exceed 50° with 700 rpm, it remains inaudible.
Room temperature at 20°.
What more can you ask of it? (If the size is a bit big, prepare the large cases).
Perfect Ventirad.Review automatically translated -

Top Ventirad
First Noctua ordered and I'm not really disappointed. The bundle is quite well supplied, the ventirad seems to me of very good quality.
Bought to replace a Corsair H110i GT whose pump failed, this NH-U12S, much cheaper, cools perfectly my I7 4790k@4.6GHz.
I am very satisfied with my purchase. LDLC always on top, nothing to say.
I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.

Silence on the move
Nothing to complain about, it's my 2nd Noctua, the silence is always present. Less expensive and as efficient as watercooling.
Small tools and quality thermal paste provided unlike other brands.Review automatically translated -

A monster of a fan (be careful with other components and the size of your tower to fit it in your PC.
Very quiet (even in gamer mode) and does its job perfectly. No overheating noted...

Cools well
The radiator is perfect. No problems during installation. The fan is relatively quiet, even when playing.
However, the fan is a bit "cheap".
It deserves to be better made. I think it can be replaced by another one
But apart from that, satisfied.

Indispensable
I have always used the original intel ventirads until this purchase. What a surprise! Perfect cooling, impressive silence. I will never go back. The quality of the hardware is excellent.
I was able to fit it perfectly into a mini ITX (zalman M1 case) on an I5 7600K.Review automatically translated -

it's good Noctua
Bought to replace a Noctua NH-L12 which was no longer doing the job with an AMD FX 8350 Black Edition processor which heats up quite a bit, TDP problem, I am very satisfied, does its job well with two 12 cm fans and especially very quiet even with the two 12 cm fans, perfect value for money at Noctua and LDLC

Very good product
Excellent product, supplied with everything you need.
The only downside is the size of the unit. It just fits in my super lanboy air. I'm glad I didn't take the ones above!
But otherwise, it does its job well and very quietly.Review automatically translated -

Top quality
I ordered this Noctua to cool a 7700K.
Does not interfere with RAM strips.
Easy installation.
Good performance.
However, don't make the same mistake I did.
I had an extra fan with clips and thought I would mount it in push-pull mode, paying attention to the airflow direction. It was a bad idea 5°C more with both fans in the same conditions; under load under OCCT.

The radiator itself is well
The cooling capacity is more than correct.
Except that the machining of the parts at Noctua is not top notch and it's a pain in the ass to assemble. I strongly advise anyone who orders a Noctua not to hesitate to go on their website and fill in the form to receive a free adaptation kit as soon as a part breaks.Review automatically translated -

1 month and clear
I don't often comment on a purchase but I have to say that I and several people I know are very satisfied with the LDLC service.
I dialled my pc and forgot to add the assembly, but no worries, a quick call and everything is fine. Assembled and shipped in a timely manner, received in 8 days after payment was received.
A quality service like we would like to see more of. 100% satisfied.Review automatically translated -

Perfect! (from Noctua ^^)
Mounted on my i7 4790k, I have temperatures of maximum 65°C (peak) and 55°C when I have the case open for better ventilation. I think I can overclock a bit, which I didn't think I could do with such a small aircooling!
Very happy with my purchase, and of course, the silence is there!Review automatically translated -

Great performance by NOCTUA.
A ventirad as I like them, imposing to dissipate the heat well while remaining very quiet.
Doesn't have any problem with ram strips.
It's very quick to assemble, very well packaged, tools included.
Fan on silent blocks.

Great ventirad!
My very first ventirad, I don't regret it!
The installation is quite simple.
I mounted it on a Z87-G45 gaming, it fits PERFECTLY, and does not encroach on the RAM slots.
I recommend it to you!Review automatically translated -

Great
Like the 100 comments above, I recommend it!!! Easy to mount on an ATX motherboard, no worries with the proximity of the RAM, and then what about the cooling... It gave a new lease of life to my CORE I7 2600K, which runs without flinching at 4.5 Ghz with a maximum temperature of 55°!!! It's enough to make me feel like a mid-range processor today!

Silence and performance
This cooler cools any processor beautifully. I do NOT hear it, even under full load.
In the package there is EVERYTHING: Phillips spanner, plastic collars, high efficiency thermal paste, adhesive strips, extension cable, mounting accessories to attach a second fan to the heatsink... And to top it all off, it even comes with all the necessary accessories to mount it on AMD (AM2(+), AM3(+), FM1, FM2(+)) and Intel (LGA2011-0, LGA2011-3, LGA115x (LGA1150, LGA1155, LGA1156)) sockets. It will also be fully compatible on future sockets.
Caution: consider the dimensions of this object with the available space in your tower around your CPU.
Tip: organize the airflow inside your machine intelligently for a better efficiency of the cooling system.Review automatically translated -

great and well thought out
The finish is perfect and the mounting system is very well thought out.
For my first PC assembly, it was the CPU/Ventirad assembly that scared me the most.
It was a piece of cake thanks to their ingenious assembly system: You put the backplate, the spacers and a blade on each side, and screw them onto the motherboard. The only thing left to do is to fix the ventirad on these blades thanks to 2 pre-mounted screws on spring to exert the perfect pressure.
Mounted on a 6700, I am at 20°C in idle and 35°C in play. All in absolute silence :-)
PS: the colour was a bit of a turn-off at first, but seeing it in real life it's different, it looks good.Review automatically translated -

I am in LOVE with it
On a more serious note, after using an AIO H60 on my i7 4790k (was running at 70°C with Aida64), I made the mistake of buying a bad loop with a 360mm heatsink.
This fridge is just great! Easy to use, great components and well worth the price.
For those who think the price is a bit high, it's not entirely wrong but you should know that Noctua has an NF-F12 fan built in (I would have put an NF-P12 for more pressure but it works) and a WHOLE tube of Noctua thermal paste too.
So the total paid is 68,95€, but the fan costs 18€ (I think) by itself and the paste 8€ or 10€. So about 40€ for the tower alone!Review automatically translated -

LDLC at its best. The people on the phone are experts. This is so rare that it is worth mentioning. Congratulations
