Award-winning NH-D12L cooler
The NH-D12L has proven in countless tests that it can keep up with larger 120mm coolers despite its reduced height. Its winning combination of excellent performance and extended case compatibility has earned the NH-D12L awards and recommendations from more than 50 hardware websites and magazines across the world.
chromax.black design
The NH-D12L chromax.black is black from head to toe: featuring a black coated heatsink, a black fan with black anti-vibration pads, black fan clips and black mounting parts, it’s right at home in all-black builds and easy to integrate with other colour schemes.
145mm height for broader case compatibility
While Noctua’s regular 120mm CPU coolers stand 158mm tall, the NH-D12L measures only 145mm. This allows it to fit not only a wide range of 4U rackmount server cases and many tower-style enclosures that are not wide enough for 158mm units, but also some larger Small Form Factor (SFF) and Mini-ITX chassis.
100% RAM compatibility on LGA1851/1700/1200 and AM5/AM4
In its standard orientation (blowing towards the I/O panel), the NH-D12L does not overhang the RAM slots on Intel LGA1851 / LGA1700 / LGA1200 / LGA115x and AMD AM5 / AM4 based motherboards due to its asymmetric design. This ensures easy access to the installed modules and 100% compatibility with DIMMs that feature tall heat-spreaders or RGB lighting.
PWM support and Low-Noise Adaptors
The NF-A12x25r 120mm fan supplied with the NH-D12L supports PWM for convenient automatic speed control through the motherboard: full performance under load, virtually silent at idle! In addition, the maximum fan speed can be reduced from 2000 to 1700rpm using the supplied Low-Noise Adaptor for even quieter operation.
Compatibility with past and future sockets
Thanks to Noctua’s SecuFirm ecosystem, the NH-D12L chromax.black can be made compatible with the older LGA2066, LGA2011, LGA1366 and LGA775 sockets using the optional NM-i20xx and NM-I3 mounting kits, which are provided free of charge on request. If technically possible, Noctua will also provide upgrade kits for future sockets, which makes the NH-D12L a safe long-term investment.
6-year manufacturer’s warranty
Noctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding longevity. True to this legacy, the NH-D12L heatsink is built to last, and like all Noctua fans, the supplied NF-A12x25r features an MTTF rating of more than 150,000 hours. The entire package comes with a full 6-year manufacturer’s warranty.
