Our Take
A dual-tower air cooler from Noctua aimed at anyone wanting near-silent, high-end thermal performance without moving to liquid cooling. Its 165mm height means a spacious case is essential, but in return you get cooling capacity that rivals many all-in-one liquid coolers, backed by Noctua's famously long-lived fans and rock-solid mounting system.
Key Features
Dual-tower heatsink with six nickel-plated copper heatpipes for heat distribution
Two NF-A15 140mm PWM fans included, running in a push-pull configuration
SecuFirm2 mounting system supporting Intel LGA and AMD AM4/AM5 sockets (check compatibility list for latest chips)
Low-Noise Adaptors included to cap fan speed and cut noise further
NT-H1 thermal paste included in the box, no separate purchase needed
Approximately 165mm tall, so case clearance needs checking before buying
Our Verdict
Buy this if you want quiet, high-end air cooling and have a case big enough to fit it. It's overkill for basic office PCs and a poor fit for compact builds, but for enthusiasts prioritising thermals and acoustics over looks, it's hard to beat.
