Noctua NA-HC8 chromax.black, jäähdytyssiilin peitelevy, musta

The Noctua 120mm CPU cooler is an outstanding choice for my AMD Ryzen setup. It delivers exceptional cooling performance necessary for maintaining optimum speeds and reliability, especially under load. Its low noise output is particularly impressive, making it a staple in my quest for a quiet yet powerful PC build.

Excellent quality cooler - the main body of the cooler is solidly built and fairly weighty, the fans are excellent quality and ran silently even when the PC case was open. It is a pretty large cooler so you need to check on the Noctua compatibility page that it will fit in your case - it fits fine in the Fractal Pop Silent XL. I was fitting the cooler on an MSI ATX motherboard with an Intel LGA 1700 socket and this worked out perfectly with plenty clearance for all 4 DIMM sockets. I had chosen the Noctua cooler as I had read it is pretty straightforward to fit, and I did find this was true. The mounting kit for the LGA 1700 socket was included with the cooler, as was some of Noctua's well-regarded thermal paste. The cooler's performance in the built system seems sound too, though I'm not an overclocker so can't comment on that. But generally an excellent product, as I had expected from Noctua.

Really good cooler. Much smaller than the D15, looks good in the case, cools really well and it's quiet.

Big beast though exactly what I wanted keeping the CPU cool. Easy to install, past included, brace for the motherboard & fitting kit - including Y connector so both fans can take power from the same header.

Greater performing cooler ideal for the Fractal Torrent Compact
