Keep your processor running cool with the NH-U12S CPU Cooler from Noctua. Featuring a nickel-plated copper heatsink and pipes, this CPU cooler sports a 120mm Noctua NF-F12 PWM fan. This fan provides speed of 300 to 1500 rpm and a noise level of 22.4 dBA. An included low-noise adapter can bring the max speed down to 300 rpm, while volume also drops to 18.6 dBA. The NH-U12S can also fit a second user-installed NF-F12 PWM fan, and it comes with anti-vibration rubber pads and fan clips for this purpose. The Noctua NH-U12S CPU cooler is compatible with Intel LGA 2066, square-ILM 2011 & 2011-v3, 1200, 1156, 1155, 1151, and 1150 sockets. It also fits AMD AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, FM1, FM2, and FM2+ sockets. AMD AM4 sockets from 2019 and later are also supported.
100% RAM Compatibility
Thanks to its slim design, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules while also working with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans.
Classic Tower Size
Standing 6.22″ tall, the NH-U12S is short enough to fit most modern mid- or full-tower cases. Measuring 4.92″ wide including the fan and fan clips, the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on most standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring compatibility with multi-GPU setups.
Anti-Vibration Pads and Fan Clips for Second Fan
Users can add a second, optional NF-F12 PWM fan to create a push/pull setup, improving airflow. The NH-U12S includes fan clips and an extra set of anti-vibration pads that allow you to off-set the rear fan, improving acoustics in dual-fan mode.
SecuFirm2 Mounting System
Noctua’s SecuFirm2 mounting system supports Intel LGA 2066, square-ILM 2011 and 2011-v3, 1200, 1156, 1155, 1151, and 1150 sockets. AMD AM3, AM3+, AM2, AM2+, FM1, FM2, and FM2+ sockets are also supported, as are AMD AM4 sockets from 2019 and later.
