I've been following and testing products made by Noctua since the very beginning so when they announced the NH-D15 to us we immediately knew that it would be a worthy successor to the highly acclaimed NH-D14. Sure we didn't expect miracles since in their ...

When reviewing silent cooling solutions we are often forced to recognize that silent cooling doesn't always translate into good overclocking performance yet, there are a few notable exceptions. Thermal performance comes from a variety of factors like the ...
When Noctua released the NH-D14 back in 2009, it quickly became a standard in the CPU cooling world. It rightfully claimed the title of KING of air cooling for the longest time by providing top level performance, and even bested some closed-loop liquid co...

Abstract: About five years ago the Austrian firm Noctua released its super-cooler NH-D14. It turned out to be extremely good and took a leading position among the best of CPU coolers. Even today, periodically acquiring new fastening mechanisms to support the latest...
The Noctua NH-D15 is the rare successor to a popular product that actually improves over every aspect of the original. It's only a slightly better cooler than the D14, but has superior acoustics even though Noctua's newer fan models aren't as smooth sound...
I do not think we have ever had to be negative about a Noctua product, and that ain't gonna happen with the NH-D15 either. It is a solid and high quality product that manages to cool at levels that remain best in class when we talk about air based heat-p...
