  • Noctua bereichert den Markt mit dem NH-U12P um eine Kühlercombo höchster Güte. In allen wichtigen Belangen, vom Lieferauftritt bis hin zur Performance, weiß Österreichs Aushängeschild in Sachen Prozessorkühlung ordentlich zu punkten. So finden wir im...

  • Betrachtet man die Messdaten, so erhält der Kunden mit dem Noctua NH-U12P einen leisen CPU-Kühler mit einer guten Kühlleistung. Auch bei geringer Motordrehfrequenz baut der Lüfter genügend Druck auf um die Wärmeenergie effektiv abzuführen. Der Axial...

  • Noctua konnte auf ganzer Linie überzeugen. In den Kategorien Leistung, Verarbeitung sowie Lautstärke sind die Österreicher mit dem NH-U12P ganz oben mit dabei. Hinzu kommt eine sehr gute Kompatibilität mit den gängigen Sockeln und die variable Montage...

  • Noctua brengt met de NH-U12P weer een High-End koeler op de markt, een nadeel is echter de prijs. Daar staat weer tegenover dat Noctua een goede ventilator meelevert en de koeler erg goed presteert. Als Noctua bij hun volgende koeler een makkelijke mon...

  • Продукция Noctua оставила после себя хорошее впечатление. NH-U12P - продукт, к сожалению, не идеальный, но великолепные охлаждающие способности кулера заглаживают все маленькие отрицательные моменты, которые есть у этого продукта. NH-U12P можно смело отне...

  • Utmärkt prestanda, Dubbla medföljande fläktar, Smidig montering
  • Kyler inte omgivande komponenter, Relativt högljudd, Nedkortade slangar och andra svårgreppade besparingar
  • Med H70 finslipar Corsair och Asetek en hel del vassa kanter från föregångaren H50. Resultatet är en trevlig produkt med mycket god prestanda som utan tvekan matchar de bästa luftkylarna på marknaden. Konstruktionen upplevs överlag som stabil och väl...
