  • Kvaliteta materijala, izrade i završne obrade, solidne performanse, malene dimenzije, bundle.
  • Čujni ventilatori na najvišim okretajima, cijenom nedostupan širem krugu kupaca.
  • NH-L12 je još jedan u nizu kvalitetnih Noctuinih hladnjaka, koji unatoč svojim malim dimenzijama i malenom toplinskom kapacitetu pod kontrolom može držati i moćnije procesore. Naš je 3770K tako držao i na 4.5GHz što je za svaku pohvalu. Ipak, najbolje će...

  • Jak se k tomu na konec postavit? Budu hodnotit z mého úhlu pohledu a dle mých potřeb, proto i článek vznikl. Mým cílem pro obývákový počítač bylo dosažení co nejmenšího hluku v idle a akceptovatelné hlučnosti v reálné zátěži. Je třeba si uvědomit, že ta...

  • Abstract:  Že sa už ani nepamätáte, kedy ste u nás naposledy čítali recenziu na top-flow chladič? Máte pravdu, bolo to už naozaj dávno. Na jednej strane je pravda, že sa vežovité chladiče tešia podstatne lepším predajom, rozhodne to nie je to dôvod, prečo v našich t...

  • Abstract:  Uvažujete o tichom, a zároveň výkonnom počítači do vašej obývačky? Asi budete mať zálusk aj na kompaktnú, decentne vyzerajúcu skrinku. S touto požiadavkou častokrát stroskotávajú sny o bezhlučnej prevádzke. Noctua preto vysiela do boja nízkoprofilovú N...

  • Bize gelen bilgiye göre önerilen son kullanıcı fiyatı 50 Euro olan NH-L12 modeli Noctua kalitesini ve farkını yansıtmayı başarıyor. Paket içeriği zengin ve kutulama mükemmel. Aynı zamanda kurulum son derece kolay. Yeni ya da eski çok sayıda farklı işlemci...

  • kvalita spracovania, bohaté príslušenstvo, 2 kvalitné dodávané ventilátory, možnosť zníženia maximálnych otáčok PWM regulácie (L.N.A.), jednoduchá a rýchla montáž (SecuFirm2), kompaktné rozmery (bez horného ventilátora), veľmi solídny výkon s oboma
  • tvrdá, nepoddajná kabeláž ventilátorov a dodávaných adaptérov, 93mm už nemožno považovať za low-profile, nižší výkon s jedným 92mm ventilátorom naspodu (stále s prehľadom postačujúci pre drvivú väčšinu nepretaktovaných procesorov)
  • Zatiaľ, bohužiaľ, nemáme otestovanú žiadnu priamu konkurenciu, s ktorou by sme mohli porovnať či už výkon, hlučnosť alebo kvalitu spracovania Noctua NH-L12. Pri dnešnom hodnotení tak budeme vychádzať len z našich postrehov pri testovaní prvého chladič...

  • ЗаключениеИ така какво можем да кажем за новите предложения на Noctua? NH-L9A-AM4 е доста специфичен охладител. От една страна, да той е изключително малък, но от друга страна производителността му не е по-добра от тази на Wraith Spire, нито нивото нашум...

  • Abstract:  금일 피스커뮤를 통해서는 신제품이 아닌 이미 국내에 출시된 지 꽤 된 제품을 만나볼 예정입니다. 국내에서도 잘 알려진 냉각솔루션 전문업체 중 하나인 바로, Noctua(녹투아)입니다. Noctua는 국내에서도 제품이 다양하게 출시되고 있지만, 국내에선 아직 전문적으로 리뷰진행 한 곳이 없어, 이번 시간을 가져보는데, 모델은 바로, 플라워형 쿨러와 로우프로파일 쿨러 2가지를 겨냥한 ‘NH-L12'가 되겠습니다. 그럼, Noctua의 NH-L12를 만나보겠...

  • เป็นอย่างไรกันบ้างครับสำหรับผลการทดสอบ Heatsink Low-Profile ตัวล่าสุดของทาง Noctua NH-L12 ซึ่งออกแบบมาสำหรับใช้งานงานร่วมกับเครื่อว HTPC โดยเฉพาะ ด้วยจุดเด่นที่มีเสียงรบกวนที่ค่อนข้างต่ำมากๆ และมีประสิทธิภาพในการระบายความร้อนให้กับ CPU ได้ดีกว่า Heatsink ...
