Noctua NH-L12S Low Profile procesoriaus aušintuvas – 120mm

Aprašymas

Noctua is known as one of the greats when it comes to silent- and high-end PC cooling, with the Austrian manufacturer enjoying particular praise for their CPU coolers. These coolers combine superb craftsmanship and manufacturing quality with minimal noise and have proven so popular that they are also available for purchase separately as case-, CPU or radiator fans.

The Noctua NH-L12S, with its diminutive dimensions, has been designed from the ground up to fit Small Form Factor and HTPC cases. In the context of low profile cooler it is defined as „L-Type”, due to the shape formed by the four heatpipes of the heatsink and its fins. This has the twin advantages of not only looking futuristic but also giving the cooler an extremely large and flat design.

Optimised for Compact Systems

The NH-L12S stands out from the crowd due to the options it offers in terms of installation: The fan can be mounted above the cooling fins. This allows the cooler to support RAM modules up to 45mm high. If the fan is mounted beneath the cooling fins, the total height is reduced to just 70 mm. As a result the range of small cases where this cooler is capable is fitting is extensive, all the while still ensuring your hardware is supplied with plenty of cool air.

The NH-L12S comes equipped with the NF-A12x15 PWM. This powerful 120 mm fan spins at up to 1.850 RPM and produces 23,9 dB(A), a level which is extremely quiet considering the fan speed, while still pushing a substantial 94,2 m³/h of air. The impressive specifications combined with its tiny size makes for a truly outstanding product overall.

Fan Speeds

The bundled fan supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for automatic speed regulation. The addition of the included Low Noise Adapter however gives users the option of limiting the fan to 1.400 RPM, thereby making the fan even quieter.

Another highlight of this cooler includes the patented SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system. This permits the installation of coolers of motherboards using common Intel- as well as AMD platforms along with most sockets from both manufacturers. Some Intel-based Mini-ITX motherboards are not capable of supporting a backplate, as such the NH-L12S comes bundled with an additional set of Intel posts so that the cooler can be installed regardless.

Attention: The NH-L12S is a quiet low profile cooler that is designed for use in compact cases and HTPCs. The cooler possesses excellent cooling performance in its class, however it is not designed for overclocking and extra precaution must be taken when using the cooler on processors with a 95W TDP (Thermal Design Power) and above.
