Noctua NH-D12L chromax. black
Noctua NH-D12L chromax. black
The Noctua NH-D12L, chromax.black processor cooler dissipates heat from the processor in computer builds with limited internal space. Its dual-tower design with five heat pipes effectively distributes the thermal load, which is handled by a high-performance 120mm NF-A12x25r PWM fan. Its main advantage is a reduced total height of 145mm, which is 13mm less than standard 120mm Noctua coolers. This compact design expands its compatibility to include narrower computer cases and 4U server cases that previously required less powerful 92mm coolers.
Key features of the Noctua NH-D12L, chromax.black processor cooler
- Reduced total height for compatibility with smaller cases
- Cooling provided by the included NF-A12x25r PWM fan
- Asymmetrical design provides full access to memory slots
- Fan uses reliable SSO2-type bearings
- Five heat pipes dissipate heat
- Easy installation with the SecuFirm2 mounting system
- Soldered joints maintain thermal conductivity
Compact design
With a height of 145 millimetres, this cooler is 13 millimetres shorter than standard 120-millimetre Noctua coolers. This modification expands its usability in compact cases and server systems. The all-black chromax.black finish includes the heatsink, fan, anti-vibration pads and mounting parts, which unifies the look of the entire build without any distracting elements.
Performance and quiet operation
Heat dissipation is handled by the 120mm NF-A12x25r fan, which uses SSO2-type bearings. Its speed range of 450 to 2000rpm offers flexibility between quiet operation and high airflow. The joints between the heat pipes and fins are soldered, which maintains stable heat transfer throughout the cooler's lifespan. The maximum noise level at full power does not exceed 22.6dB(A).
Wide cooler compatibility
The asymmetrical heatsink design does not interfere with the memory slots on motherboards with AM5, AM4 and LGA1851, 1700 or 1200 sockets. This solution gives you 100% compatibility with RAM modules, regardless of the height of their heatsinks or the presence of RGB lighting. Installation is simplified by the proven SecuFirm2 mounting system, known for its reliability and ease of use.
