I have just installed Noctua NH-D15S black.chromax and paired it with 12700k b/c I prefer air-coolers, I suggest everyone to get S version and buy an additional 120mm fan because it has more clearance for RAM. I made a mistake and bought the 140mm version, it can still fit if you have a wider case but 120mm would fit easier. Since some of the ASUS motherboards have limited space due to heat sink cover (mine also, asus rog z690 f), the only thing you need to do is turn the air-cooler 180 degrees, also the fan when reinstalling, it needs to be turned 180 degrees for air to flow from front to back. With 12700k my idle temps are 25-30C, on heavier loads (gaming in MSFS2020, ARMA 3,) temp never exceeds 65C. Hope this helps.

Side note, I actually bought my NH-D15 2 years ago, so that means I needed to request an upgrade kit that they said they will ship for free, which is nice. I only wish I had checked that earlier because now my PC build is on hold indefinitely till I get that part. I thought I could work with what I have since the standoffs are in the right position, however the LGA1700 back plate has 4 screws and those heads interfere with the supplied plate, as it only has 3 holes to allow for those older sockets. So, I could either drill out my current which would most definitely void half a dozen warranties or wait for official part to arrive who knows when in the mail. Still, thanks for this video, it really did help, even though I couldn't finish my build today.

[@Mikej1592]

funny you say use one of the manuals that came with it, because I bought my NH-D15 years ago then ran out of funds to build my system, now some 3 or 4 years later I am ready to build and the thing was made before the cosket 1700 for intel was a thing so there is only a manual for AMD, socket LGA20XX and LGA115x. Your video using nearly exact same parts really reduced my anxiety for not looking this up first. I thought, Oh, I already have a processor cooler, a good one, so I don't need to worry about that part... till I opened the box and saw the contact surface is literally the same size as the long end of the now rectangular i9 processors 12th gen. anyway, thank you so much for posting this, it is very helpful in many ways.

I just installed one of these in a Cooler Master Mastercase H500 ARGB case, then realized something... if I had to install the heatsink and fans outside the case, how the hell do I clean the heatsink when it gets dusty if I can't reach the top fan clips? With a 200mm fan at the top of the case. there's literally no room to get my fingers in there. I may have to go back to my MSI Core Frozr L heatsink. There's only a 5C difference.

[@lrdrums98]

Thank you for this! I bought a used one and needed to get the LGA1700 socket kit. Got it off Amazon instead of trying to get it for free through Noctua just so I could expedite it cuz I was anxious to finish my build lol. Also made the mistake of placing the curved brackets on top of the rods upside down so the heat sink had nothing to screw into... so I had to redo that bit. Also ended up having to remove my GPU from the mobo to have enough room to get my hand around the side to secure the fan to the inside once the main heat sink was attached. I definitely agree that all the attachment bracket parts look a little overwhelming out of the box, so this video really made things clear. The cooler is working very well, and is very quiet!

[@buddyb4343]

Got one in, it looks nice, installs easily enough. The middle fan sits ok, but sits well below the fin stack. (Probably ok since it helps move air across the board components.) The first fan is a problem though. (Or the last if you install it over the IO ports.) I have relatively low profile RAM sticks, (about the same height as the IO shield) with no leds, but the top of the first fan still sits 1-5/16" above the fin stack. (The top of the middle fan is 3/8" above the stack while the top of the vapor tubes are just below that.) In my system, mounted to an AMD 7900X, the top of the first fan needs to come down about 1/2" for me to close the case. The fans included with this cooler are 140mm in size. I have a 120mm on order. I intend to swap this out with the first 140mm fan and I'll move that to the case somewhere.

I couldn’t mount the second fan it made contact with the chassis side so I couldn’t close the case

Do you generally prefer air coolers to AIOs? I've recently switched to my first AIO - a Corsair H150i after having a Sycthe FUMA for several years. I like being able to control settings with iCUE, but mainly it was for aesthetic purposes if I'm perfectly honest. This Noctua looks nice, really industrial, but it's just so big lol.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Traditionally no. AIOs have been shown to have better cooling and I prefer the aesthetic but the case I'm using basically requires either air tower or full liquid cooling so I went for air. 🤷‍♂️😂

[@treyquattro]

@@TheProvokedPrawn Fractal Torrent is fine with an AIO (front-mounted) but you do have to move the fans around. The aesthetic isn't as good but it will work. I'm about to do that but am researching air coolers first, just in case. But they're big, and the temps with an i9-12900K are likely too big. I'm hoping you posted test results with temps somewhere.

[@andyframpton9802]

[@Davethreshold]

Just today I received my 3rd, optional fan for this cooler. It can't hurt to draw a bit more air out of the left tower. The thermal Grizzly Kryonaut subtracts about 6-7 degrees C, coupled with the Contact frame which draws off about ten more! I can not wait to get it done.

[@dap777754]

Ah the fine, fine art of thermal paste application. To be a thermal paste aficionado and sophisticate - all you really have to do is finally claim "Great Balls of Fire - I've just dropped 7 degrees C (make up your own number) with my genuine all silver aluminum paste, sold by the inestimable (make up your own brand) Oyster Sauce Company of East London." It's been 6 years since my last build - delighted to see there are still people out there waxing poetic about Oyster Sauce and thermal paste. As if any of it made a bit of difference. My other take, having just installed a Noctua fan on my newbuild, is that these fans are ridiculously big and heavy and expensive. Are Intel i9-12900;s running that much hotter than previous, that they need these gargantuan fans - fans that are no longer supplied OEM with the MB and have to be custom purchased and installed?

I'm about to get this CPU, what cooler do you recommend? I'm upgrading from a i9 9900K to the i9 12900K I'm stuck on picking a cooler. 😬

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

This one has been good enough tbh. From what I've read it's better with a 360mm AIO but only marginally. This CPU runs hot. Undervolting helps but it's just hot. It's fine though. Performance has been amazing with this Vs my previous 11900K

@@TheProvokedPrawn thanks for that great video man. Very informative 🤘🏾 I basically have the same build you showcased (fractal torrent, i9 12900k, NH-D15). Yesterday when I was benchmarking my cpu under a full 3D rendering workload, the temps actually hit 100. You mentioned that high 90s were normal for a full work load. But should I be concerned about it peaking at 100? I was considering if I should switch to an AIO? But since the temp differences are marginal between the fan and an AIO is it even worth switch?

[@3RAN7ON]

when I first heard your voice I thought I was watching the Dr. Creepen YT channel LOL anyway, I'm gonna try and install this cooler in a Lian Li Lancool 215 case, should give me 1mm of clearance! wish me luck

[@4TeenDrawings]

what is the frequency of the cpu? il boost clock is activate?

[@JayPandya]

Hello! My main concern is the noise. Which is much more compared to NH-D15S. I mean for a content creator like making gaming videos and such the fan will run at such high noise level and the microphone will catch the noise. I am super confused between NH-U12A CHROMAX and NH-D15S. I am not sure will the NH-D15S fit with my MOBO? (MSI MORTAR WIFI B660M WIFI), although I read the compatibility section on noctua about ram clearance and motherboard compatibility but still what do you think. I just want someone with experience to guide me. Please help me decide which one should I get.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

It's not mega noisey in my experience. My mic certainly doesn't pick up the noise but that's going to vary depending on your setup of course. The tool should show if it will fit with your motherboard

[@RicardoIv]

Tell me how mic can pick up a fan noise coming from the closed case? Bear in mind there should be a wind filter on your mic. So ? I got NH-D15 and the fan noise coming through case are so soft and barely heard.... There is no way mic will pic that up. I do understand your concerns lets say if you are music producer and work on the high level, but you are making "gaming videos". Cmon bruh! :)))) Best Regards

@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks for reply did my research and confirmed my parts 👍

[@JayPandya]

@@RicardoIv Good point. I've being using a mid tier laptop my whole life and that thing made soo much noise while recording so I was a bit cautious, I was not sure about the whole noise thing with desktops so I was a bit paranoid since it's my first build. I agree with you, also am going with NH-D15S CHROMAX with Corsair 4000D as my case, pretty pumped up about it :)))))

[@RicardoIv]

@@JayPandya I got same case. And d15 not s version. SO far so good.

[@mahmoudzaefi2958]

hi. can we use 128gb ram with this fan and this setup?

[@avirtualworld4U]

I know I know I know the thermal paste is a job, I have watched more videos of the process than all the cpu vids out and for me the PEA is the key no air pockets spreads evenly and best results always but aint mine so go gaget go. P.S. just installed the NH-D15 what a beast O comes with a badge with sticky yea, nice cooler cools my i9 12900K just fine

[@mythbuster4315]

Can this thing handle a 5.2ghz all core OC on 12900K? I'm talking 260-270W

[@ConchitaProductions]

Not a chance, it will hit 100°C on stock settings depending on your case and fan configuration

sehr entspannte stimme, danke für dein Video

[@apertaplays]

mine is a non black edition, but noctua is perfect. i have no words

[@joas162]

Great stuff for a n00b like me, thanks!

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

You're welcome!

[@LiquidSpiral]

Is it possible to use all four ram slots with this CPU cooler?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Yes. I bought more and filled all the slots.

[@dap777754]

@@TheProvokedPrawn Goodness; 128 gb RAM? Why? I'm at 32 on my newbuild and that's double what seems to be needed and recommended.
