Noctua Noctua NH-L12S Low Profile CPU Cooler - 120mmNoctua is one of the well-known manufacturers in the silent and high-end cooling range, whereby the CPU coolers of the Austri... morean manufacturer have an excellent reputation. These combine excellent processing quality with high cooling performance and minimal noise. The self-developed fans from Noctua are also responsible for this, which are also available separately in order to serve as a housing, CPU or radiator fan. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the Noctua NH-L12S is predestined for installation in smaller enclosures in the so-called small form factor and HTPC environments. It belongs to the L-type coolers, so the four heatpipes in an L-shape from the cooling surface into the slats of the cooling block. This on the other hand looks very futuristic, on the other hand it offers the possibility to an enormously flat height. Optimized for compact systems The NH-L12S is distinguished above all by its flexible installation: the fan can be installed above the cooling ribs. Then the cooler supports RAM modules with an overall height of up to 45mm. If, on the other hand, the fan is installed below the cooling fins, the total height is only 70mm. The housing can be so tiny, the NH-L12S fits almost everywhere and ensures sufficient cooling at low volume. The NH-L12S is supplied with the fan NF-A12x15 PWM.
