However, with desperation of wanting an upgrade to a 6 year old system, and some scarcity of sourcing parts, I opted for a prebuilt solution, that had a stock intel cooler on the i7-11700KF, on a ASUS B560-G board, within a ASUS ROG G15CE designed prebuilt/case. I am literally writing this after installing this cooling upgrade. I was doing research for possible solutions to my current situation. I saw some other user's ways of possibly adding a taller cooling tower, which one version meant cutting a hole in the side of the metal side panel case they had. However, my side panel is of the glass version, and that was not an option. I saw this week that this came out via an online article and writeup of this being released this week. Thankfully desertcart had stock and I immediately placed the order. I was not disappointed. It fits, and it cools much more efficiently than I had even expected. I ran some loads that I normally ran the device under, which were most likely thermal throttling the system as the system was spiking in the 90C/212F areas according to HWMonitor. I believe I am now not thermal throttling as we speak, with the temperature under same load now reading 84C/183F at max readings. This is a mind easing solution that I was weary of working at first for the height limitation of the cooling tower I thought I might run into. However, Noctua has hit this out of the park and has provided the prebuilt narrow cases breathing room and doubled the cooling thermal area, if not tripled the surface area as the stock cooler on a visual analysis of heatsink surfaces. My case currently, without spending money on another case or even considering AIO or liquid cooling, is small as it is. Much smaller than I imagined it when I purchased it initially. The cooling tower has enough gap, albeit small if by millimeters, between the top of the thermal heat pipe ends and the glass side panel, that there is no contact whatsoever. And finally, the second main reason, aside from thermal control as the primary, was to reduce the noise created by the constant needing to cool the smaller stock heatsink. For those coming along behind me, the stock cooler is smaller than 92mm of even the rear exhaust case fan. Having the cooling fans that are larger and quieter from this is so much better than ever before. Even at load, there was barely any noticeable fan noise, you might literally have to get down next to the case to hear it if you have it below your desktop surface. My older AIO system is now even louder than this now. I am very happy with this and very thankful for this new release. I didn't have to spend excess money on a new case or a new liquid cooling solution that this was able to help fulfill. As far as installation, the instructions were very detailed and the parts were very easy to identify. While I can see someone not experienced possibly being a bit overwhelmed by such a task of a swap that might cause worry, from my other experiences, this was such a breeze and easy to accomplish, that I feel that my son could do the swap. Review: Perfect for 4U case - Fits great in my 4U case. Extremely quiet. A bit pricey but I believe the quality is excellent. Install is pretty easy. Fewer loose parts to align while trying to get the screws in compared to some others. There are a few very close screw holes to align for different sockets so just pay attention and look closely. I had no issues getting things right the first time. Uses a backplate so you'll need the board out of the case. Plan accordingly. I'm only using this on an i5-13400 which is very low power, so this cooler is overkill but I wanted something slightly better than the stock cooler in my potentially hot rack, and the fan can be aligned to blow front to back in concert with the rest of your case fans. ## Features - Low-height (145mm) dual-tower heatsink combines outstanding quiet cooling performance with excellent case compatibility, fits most 4U rackmount server cases - Single-fan configuration and asymmetrical layout guarantee 100% RAM compatibility on AMD AM4/AM5 and Intel LGA1700/1200/115x sockets - State-of-the-art NF-A12x25r 120mm fan with Low-Noise Adaptors and PWM for automatic speed control: full cooling performance under load, whisper quiet at idle! - Includes high-end NT-H1 thermal paste and SecuFirm2 mounting system for easy installation on Intel LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200, LGA115x and AMD AM5 & AM4 (offset mounting option for best efficiency) - Renowned Noctua quality backed up by 6-year manufacturer’s warranty, deluxe choice for Intel Core & Core Ultra (e.g. 285K, 265K, 245K) and AMD Ryzen (e.g. 9950X, 9900X, 9700X, 9600X) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09TB5KJ5V | | Air Flow Capacity | 102.1 cubic meter per hour | | Best Sellers Rank | #135 in Computer CPU Cooling Fans | | Brand | Noctua | | Brand Name | Noctua | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Cooling Method | Air | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 666 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 6 years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 09010018000337 | | Included Components | Cooler | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 4.45"L x 4.92"W x 5.71"H | | Item Highlight | Compact 145mm Height, Low-Noise Cooling, 5 Heatpipes, For Intel & AMD, 120mm Fan, 100% RAM Compatibility, Rich Accessory Kit | | Item Weight | 890 g | | Manufacturer | Noctua | | Material Type | Copper (base and heat-pipes), aluminium (cooling fins), soldered joints & nickel plating | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 2000 rpm | | Model | NH-D12L | | Noise Level | 22.6 db | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | NH-D12L | | Power Connector Type | 4-Pin | | Product Dimensions | 4.45"L x 4.92"W x 5.71"H | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 12 volts | | Warranty Description | 6 year manufacturer’s warranty | | Wattage | 1.68 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Noctua - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Cooling Method:** Air - **Material:** Copper (base and heat-pipes), aluminium (cooling fins), soldered joints & nickel plating - **Maximum Rotational Speed:** 2000 rpm - **Noise Level:** 22.6 db - **Power Connector Type:** 4-Pin - **Product Dimensions:** 4.45"L x 4.92"W x 5.71"H - **Voltage:** 12 volts - **Wattage:** 1.68 watts ## Images ![Noctua NH-D12L, Quiet High-Performance Dual-Tower CPU Cooler - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811cM-iN9KL.jpg) ![Noctua NH-D12L, Quiet High-Performance Dual-Tower CPU Cooler - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GaJyLJy6L.jpg) ![Noctua NH-D12L, Quiet High-Performance Dual-Tower CPU Cooler - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QvRfikQ4L.jpg) ![Noctua NH-D12L, Quiet High-Performance Dual-Tower CPU Cooler - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nM3QWPFmL.jpg) ![Noctua NH-D12L, Quiet High-Performance Dual-Tower CPU Cooler - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815OeBUYDJL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are there any chromax covers for this cooler?** A: Greetings from Noctua, unfortunately, we currently don't offer any Chromax heatsink covers for the NH-D12L. Kind regards **Q: Would the 120mm fan clips noctua sells make it possible to run a "normal" square 120mm fan?** A: The clips that came with my fan just used the standard mounting holes in the fan so I would think it would work. **Q: Where do i get a third pair of fan clips to mount a third nf-a12x25r pwm fan?** A: I believe it comes with 2 extra fan clips... **Q: Hi can i ues this on my asus sabertooth z77 lga 1155 intel z77** A: It should as long as it has the Intel 390 bracket. I had the NH-D15L with my 390 but both will work with the Intel bracket. Both coolers have the identical bracket. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Prebuilt Narrow Case, Wonderful, Great Cooling Tower Solution *by S***8 on April 10, 2022* I normally have built systems from every aspect, including case and cooling solution.
