Noctua NH-L12S cooler

Noctua NH-L12S — low-profile cooler

For users with compact cases such as HTPC or SFF systems, cooling is often a challenge. The Noctua NH-L12S solves this problem with its height of just 70 mm (with the fan mounted at the bottom), which allows installation even in very limited spaces. It is equipped with an NF-A12x15 PWM fan with a maximum speed of 1850 RPM, which ensures effective cooling while maintaining low noise of approx. 23.9 dB(A). Thanks to the SecuFirm2™ mounting system and NT-H1 thermal paste, installation is easy and reliable. With a 6-year warranty, this cooler is the ideal choice for long-term and trouble-free operation.

Powerful and quiet NF-A12x15 PWM fan

The NF-A12x15 PWM fan is designed to deliver a maximum airflow of approx. 94.2 m³/h, ensuring effective cooling even for more powerful processors. Thanks to PWM technology, the fan speed can be intelligently controlled, helping to keep the noise level at just 23.9 dB(A) under maximum load. This fan is also optimized for a long lifespan with a MTTF value of >150,000 hours, minimizing the need for maintenance.

Compatibility with a wide range of sockets

The NH-L12S cooler supports many modern and legacy sockets, including AM5, AM4, LGA1700, LGA1851, LGA1954, LGA1156, LGA1155, LGA1150, LGA1151 and LGA1200, making it a universal solution for various types of processors. The mounting flexibility allows you to adapt the cooler to your specific case layout, whether you need low height or better airflow.
