Seeing this is my first foray into cooler testing in over five years, it suited the occasion to test Noctua's flagship product and see just how it performs. The NH-U12P SE1366 for the money has a lot going for it. Although it is not THE best performi...
The Noctua is one of my favorite companies when it comes to cooling as they dont flood the market with a ton of coolers. Just a few coolers that do a really good job. For the Core i7 generation, the first cooler from Noctua to hit the shelves is the...
Noctua NH-U12P SE1366The second most expensive cooler today is the Noctua. It performed admirably and did come with two fans though those were easily beat by one stronger fan. If silence is the name of the game and the only thing you’re looking for...

I had a rough time getting the fans on the heatsink but that was due to my own haste - I forgot to put them on prior to mounting the motherboard back in my case. This led to a few cuts on my fingers and knuckles due to the space limitations of the case...

Slightly on the pricey side, Very large
I have yet to test a Noctua product that is even slightly below par or poorly made and this is no exception. The heatsink which we’ve seen before is top class and two fans on either side; it makes for a formidable CPU cooler.The temperature readings...
I hate to sound like a broken record, but Noctua just doesn’t miss a beat. Their socket 775 brackets set the golden bar for their competitors. I didn’t think they could improve them but they somehow managed to make them easier to use. On top o...
Abstract: With the advent of Intels Core i7 processors, several changes have been ushered in technology and hardware components, not the least of which is a new socket, meaning your current Socket 775 cooler wont do the job anymore here. There are several comp...

Noctuas decision to use the same design of the NH-U12P, add a second fan and a new mounting system for the new LGA1366 and launch is as an exclusive i7 CPU Cooler was well justified since it already was a great cooler even with a sing...
