Noctua NH-D15
Videos 32Photos 6 |
Quiet and high-performance CPU air cooler with a classic U-shaped layout of 6 copper heat pipes, a large aluminium heatsink and two premium Noctua fans. Capable of cooling Intel/AMD Mainstream, Performance and High-End Desktop processors. To dissipate a large amount of heat, a two-section radiator design is used, consisting of 45 plates soldered to the tubes with a 2 mm pitch. The total calculated area is an impressive 12600 cv2, which allows up to 220 W of heat to be dissipated.
The Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooler is positioned as the top-end model of 2015, aimed at users who need a high-performance and extremely quiet cooling system that can cope with the cooling of top-end processors not only in normal modes, but also with moderate overclocking. For silent heat dissipation, two 140mm Noctua NF-A15 PWM fans with a seven-blade impeller are used. Thanks to PWM control, their rotation speed can vary from 300 to 1500 rpm. SSO2 branded bearings, which are durable hydrodynamic friction units with magnetic self-stabilization, deserve special mention. The cooler has rather large dimensions (height with fans 165 mm) and impressive weight (1320 g), which should be taken into account when choosing a case.

Return of the legend
Noctua NH-D14 was the flagship cooler that was praised by absolutely all the specialized media, bloggers and adherents of serious overclocking. In 2015, the Austrian company released the ideological continuation of Noctua NH-D15, which, 5 years after the release, remains one of the best and most popular cooling systems for powerful processors.
The perfect flagship cooler with no weak points
The cooler kept all the best from its predecessor and increased it. It's very well built, comes with a six year warranty, comes with a great package (thermal paste, adapters with resistors), easy to install, very high efficiency and extremely low noise despite using two fans. In tests, he showed himself at 10 out of 10. And we are not exaggerating. The temperature of the overclocked Core i7 9700K did not exceed 65 degrees Celsius, and the noise from the operation of the cooling system was barely distinguishable against the noise from the rest of the components. And this despite the fact that both fans worked at a maximum of 1500 rpm.
TDP 220W
The fly in the ointment here is the same as that of the Noctua NH-D14. Due to the large dimensions, there may be compatibility problems with the graphics card, power supply, case or RAM. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out all measurements of the future assembly at the planning stage. Or use it with one cooler, lowering the height of the tower. In other respects, this is an perfect cooler for almost any Hi-End processor, after all, the TDP of 220 W gives a good amount of room for manoeuvre.
