Description
Intel 1700 socket compatible “full black” version
The NH-U12A chromax.black CPU cooler is the 100% black version of the award-winning Noctua NH-U12A high-end silent cooler. Retaining the asymmetrical design of the single tower heatsink and using NF-A12x25 PWM fans, it stays true to the NH-U12A concept of cleverly combining cooling performance, silence and incredible RAM / case / PCIe compatibility. With its black-clad heatsink and black fan, chromaxNT-H1 version and a full 6-year manufacturer’s warranty, the NH-U12A chromax.black is the perfect choice for users looking for a highly compatible 120mm fan that can compete with 140mm models and offer cooling performance to match its great looks. Compatible with the Intel LGA 1700 socket, it supports Intel Core processors from the 12th generation onwards.

A redesigned heatsink
The NH-U12A chromax.black is black from head to toe: the radiator, fans, silentblocks, mounting clips and accessories are all black. This makes it easy to create full black configurations or to combine with other colour themes.Thanks to a completely new and cleverly designed 7 heatpipes, a 37% larger heat sink area (compared to the NH-U12S) and a more compact design, the NH-U12S can be used in a wide range of applications.The NH-U12A pushes the limits of the 120mm format to match or even surpass many 140mm fans.
New generation fans
The NF-A12x25 is a new generation of ultra-optimised 120mm fan featuring Noctua’s latest innovations in aerodynamics for unprecedented levels of cooling and silence. Leveraging the strengths of this high-end fan in a push/pull configuration is the key to the superb acoustic and thermal performance delivered by the NH-U12A.The high-end 120mm NF-A12 fan supplied with the NH-U12A is PWM-compatible and therefore benefits from automatic speed control via the motherboard: optimal performance or virtually inaudible depending on the processor’s demands. In addition, to further reduce noise emissions, the maximum speed can be capped from 2000 to 1700 rpm by connecting the supplied low noise adapter.
