Modern CPUs need proper cooling and not everybody wants disco lighting or AIO coolers in their PC cases. Noctua is surely the best choice for those who want the best of traditional cooling. This video comes as a perfect introduction to the world of classic CPU coolers !
I used this cooler on a 7800x3d and getting about 80c 82c ( in a hotter climate ) R23 allcore The NH-U12A is a very good alternative to the d15 and is much smaller ..
On a 1440p config ? Cyberpunk, 7600x, 1080p best quality, 80-85°C I replace it with a peerless 120 and it goes 75-80°C. For this price, this cooler is not to recommended for me.
All noctua am4 mounting (except the low profile L9 coolers) work on am5, the only difference is the introduction of the offset mounting. The L9 coolers have their own backplate which isn't supported because it's part of the socket now. Basically if your am4 cooler uses the stock backplate it'll work fine on am5.
Yes, I didn't know that so I ordered it separately when I ordered the cooler. The separate brackets ended up getting lost so I said screw it and went ahead to install the cooler without the offset bracket as I had already been waiting a week for the offset brackets. Was very happy to see the offset bracket was included with the cooler. Should have checked the included brackets when I got the cooler, oh well.
@@DarylCrowi have a question if you are able to awnser which brackets are for amd because i got the same cpu cooler but mine has intel and amd 2 brackets have 2 holes on each side and 2 of them have 1 hole on each side
I heard that even for hot CPU'S as the one i have the I7-13700K it works very well. Next week i'll have it. At this moment i only have the Arctic neweer 34
