  • Noctua nous prouve encore une fois être capable de sortir un très bon produit même en proposant un design en marge de ses habitudes. Néanmoins, pour pratiquement le même prix, je vous conseille fortement le NH-U12P qui reste le meilleur de la ga...

  • ventilateur NF-P12, pâte NT-H1 livrée, performances comparables au NH-U12P, hauteur inférieure au NH-U9, garantie, finition, refroidissement des composants alentours…
  • hellip;mais attention au sens de montage, prix (59,90 €).
  • Que penser de ce NH-C12P ? Les performances brutes, cest-à-dire les capacités de refroidissement du processeur, sont excellentes et comparables à celles du récent NH-U12P. Les deux heatpipes supplémentaires permettent donc de compenser la surface d&rsquo...

  • Silence exceptionnel et performances à 800 rpm, finition exemplaire, look et efficacité du NH-P12, 6 ans de garantie, autres kits de fixation disponibles à la demande, nouveau support universel, prestations de la nouvelle pâte. thermique, compatibilité ac...
  • Prix quand même conséquent.
  • Quand Noctua nous a annoncé un successeur plus performant à son NH-U12F nous avons été très enthousiasmés mais aussi très curieux. En effet, le constructeur n’est pas partisan des annonces marketing fracassantes et ni des gros chiffres qui en metten...

  • In conclusione, possiamo certamente affermare che il prodotto inviatoci da Noctua, oltre ad essere una valida soluzione per la dissipazione dei moderni processori che, come è risaputo, hanno un TDP particolarmente elevato, è una delle migliori soluzion...

  • Der Noctua Kühler NH-C12P kann in kleineren Gehäusen mit seiner geringen Bauhöhe auftrumpfen. Die Kühlleistung auf einem Intel Core i7 System ist dafür beachtlich, was auch gleichzeitig für den umfangreichen Lieferumfang und...

  • gut verarbeitet, sehr gute Leistung, sehr leiser Betrieb, umfangreicher Lieferumfang, informative Verpackung, passt in schmalere Gehäuse
  • die Optik ist wieder geschmackssache, nicht billig, Retentionmodul muss entfernt werden, Keine Heatpipe Abdeckungen, stört unter Umständen den Airflow
  • Noctua schaffen es immer wieder mit ihren Produkten zu überzeugen. Nachdem wir den NH-U12P Kühler bereits getestet haben, kann nun auch der NH-C12P an seinen Erfolg anknüpfen. Alles vom Design der Packung bis hin zur Kühlleistung ist b...

  • Mit dem NH-C12P ist Noctua abermals ein hervorragender Wurf geglückt. Klar, die Leistungskrone kann man mit diesem Kühler nicht beanspruchen, aber zumindest im Bereich der Top-Flow-Kühler spielt man in der ersten Liga. Der mitgelieferte Lüfter sorgt z...
