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.

Noctua Noctua NH-D15 Dual Radiator Quiet CPU Cooler with two NH-A15 Fans

Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua's flagshi... morep model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14's award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system, Noctua's proven NT-H1 thermal compound and full six years manufacturer's warranty, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike. Based on the award-winning NH-D14 Noctua's NH-D14 has received more than 350 awards and recommendations from leading international hardware websites and magazines, making it one of the most successful premium heatsinks ever built. With its expanded layout and dual NF-A15 fans, the NH-D15 further improves the D14's much acclaimed quiet cooling performance. Six heatpipe dual tower design As compared to conventional single tower heatinks, the NH-D15's fine-tuned six heatpipe dual tower design provides more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency in dual fan mode. Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layout Compared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15's fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15's superior efficiency. High RAM compatibility in single fan mode Thanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high end RAM modules on the market. In dual fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard height RAM (up to 32mm). Please note: In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. Dual NF-A15 140mm fans The NH-D15 features two of Noctua's premium class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua's AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. button PWM support and Low-Noise Adaptor The NF-A15 premium fans supplied with the NH-D15 support PWM for convenient automatic speed control through the mainboard. In addition, the maximum fan speed can be reduced from 1500 to 1200rpm using the supplied Low-Noise Adaptor for even quieter operation. Excellent component cooling Extending below the fin-stacks, the large NF-A15 fans not only contribute to the NH-D15's superb CPU cooling capabilities but also provide massive airflow over surrounding motherboard components and heatsinks, thus ensuring excellent component cooling performance.

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.
