Noctua NH-U12A Dual Fan Air Cooler Review

How Much Does it Cost?

Retailing for a price in the region of £89, this is generally the price point you can expect for a Noctua cooler.

Do not, however, be fooled into confusing it’s small stature with the vast majority of air coolers. This is a high-performance cooler and our test results clearly reflect that. As such, for a design as bullet-proof as this, £89 is an absolute bargain!

Overview

One of the biggest criticisms of the Noctua branding is that they have a pretty bland colour scheme. In fairness, it’s a fair point. It is, however, a bit short-sighted to believe that in terms of coolers, ‘looks’ are the highest priority.

In truth, I rather like the design. It’s a straight-up, no-nonsense design which looks practically indestructible and, in terms of installation, has one of the best designs currently on the market.

One of the Best Ever Made!

A reality of coolers is that despite AIO liquid coolers often presenting themselves very impressively, a good solid air cooler will usually have it beat in terms of all-round performance.

In this regard, the Noctua NH-U12A represents, or in fact is, one of the best coolers currently on the market. Furthermore, possibly one of the best ever made.

Yes, it doesn’t carry the best aesthetics, but if (like me) you care more about performance than having seizure inducing RGB effects, then this is without a doubt one of the best coolers on the market at the moment!

Pros

  • Exceptional temperature control performance!
  • Bullet-proof design
  • Easy to install
  • Excellent value for money
  • Noctua has some of the best after-market support around

Cons

  • None

Neutral

  • Noctua’s continued insistence on this colour scheme will not exactly win over its biggest community peeve
