Not Quite As Good As The Original NH-L12,
When Noctua launched the NH-L12 we were quite skeptical about using our primary rig to test it and although load results well exceeded the 60 degrees temperature mark our system kept going. For good or bad the brand new NH-L12S does not surpass...

The NH-L12S is a niche product and made to suit a small cross-section of system builds. If you don't have a need for a low profile cooler, opt for a tower cooler such as the Noctua NH-U12S, a better option at the same price allowing the air to pass straig...

Superb design & build quality, Top notch performance for an air cooler, Flexibility to mount fan above or below fin stack, NT-H1 thermal paste included
Brown & cream fan colour will still divide opinion
As an air cooler alone, the NH-L12S is a fantastic buy for anyone. The fact that it's designed for small form factor builds, means that if this is the kind of cooler you need, you would be mad not to seriously consider it. It will come as no surprise that...
Quiet, even under extreme load, Small form factor, Well designed construction and setup, Excellent instructions, Included NT-H1 thermal paste, Will fit almost any CPU socket, Solid build quality
Brown fan is ugly
Taking everything into consideration, we've been impressed beyond belief with the Noctua NH-L12S, by all means, the heatsink should not have handled a 130W CPU, one of the most power-hungry CPUs of recent years, at that.The acoustics took a bit of a hit w...
