Noctua NH-U12P SE2 Core i5/i7 CPU Heatpipe Cooler Unboxing Linus Tech Tips

[TheVerxia]

i got the old one not SE2 one since i have a AM3+ moderboard can I use the AM2 bracket on AM3+ ?

[starwarsfan76]

Ordered this today :D With a 1055t stock what kinda of temperature drops can I expect from the stock cooler?

[Harrysound]

I got an i7 920 at stock speeds, what temps can i get with this?

Currently sitting on a 50oC idle with a Akasa heatsink fan, very similar to this but only one fane pushing air through.

[PirateKing1256]

OMFG! Skip to 3:25 to see the ACTUAL PRODUCT!

Video almost finished!

[Zillamp3z]

Is it 8mm heat pipes?

[SuperAMD007]

what is it? 1155/1156

[BMSillySylvie]

@SuperAMD007 yes it's compatible, i have one with my i7 2600k

[SuperAMD007]

@BMSillySylvie Thanks dude.. frickin happy, thanks!!

[SuperAMD007]

is it compatible with 1155? Please...

[LoneRenzo]

@SuperAMD007 Go check on Noctua website.

[rlmorgan95]

@SuperAMD007 yep!

[Garofild]

90 mm or 120 mm please?

[Ox1ze]

Do i need to use the second fan if you dont OC?

[soldierpwnage101]

@Ox1ze not really, just make sure your temps are ok.

[acogscopepwn]

its so expensive T_T

[Aldind2x]

Linus I would love to see a video of you installing this bad boy.

[markhogsvagen]

@Aldind2x That sounds...kind of wrong =)

[Aldind2x]

@markhogsvagen It was meant in the most anti-sexual way possible :P - I was struggling a ton with it and out of all of my components that I installed this one took the most! Next time here I come H50 or H70!

[markhogsvagen]

@Aldind2x I was just kidding =D

[GT5Enthusiast]

you got to get a better mic. its keeps topping off on the highs. good review though.

[TehAndrewRyan]

@GT5Enthusiast Just some notes..

1. This was shot outside, probably even with the cameras built-in microphone

2. This review is 2 years old, haven't checked his newer videos?

[GT5Enthusiast]

@TehAndrewRyan 1. they had quality mics 2 years ago.

2. this review is only 1 year old.

3. my comment is 4 months old, why the hell are you commenting on this?

[TehAndrewRyan]

@GT5Enthusiast For the same reason as you're telling him to get a new microphone, even though this video is outdated?

[GT5Enthusiast]

@TehAndrewRyan again they had high quality mics in 2010. your logic fails because you are telling me that in 2010 there were no high quality mics, therefore i can not comment 8 months later telling him that his mic sucks. why would it be any different if he did that video again today with the same mic? he could have back then bought a nice mic that would of done a far better job.

[TehAndrewRyan]

@GT5Enthusiast Wow dude, that's not what I'm telling you. I told you that it feels useless to comment an old video and tell him to get a better mic, tho he already got a better one and has maked new videos as well. You can't change the past, right?

[GT5Enthusiast]

@TehAndrewRyan and i was telling you the same thing, my comment was 4 months old, not that much longer than when this video was made. you are WAY late to have commented on my response.

[TubeHacker01]

This cooler is fantastic, keeps my i7 at 29 c on 50% use - 37 c at 100%

All noctua fans in my case aswell, quiet as heck, my keystrokes sound waaaaay more than my computer <3333 :D

BUT: Remember to use rubber dampeners, these fans vibrate like crazy...

[jamshidfarrokh]

shiny

[Laserchicken88]

gheeeey

[snipski0894]

@Laserchicken88 What a clever insult.

[c64geff]

Isn't this meant to come with 2 noctua p12 fans ?

[livai007]

@c64geff maybe if the sun shines 

[warnahati]

is that "shiny flat finish" (at 3:30) not some sort of protection plate for the actual copper surface?

[TheSympathon]

@mk822000 Oh yes mate! thats the shit!

[meteal666head09]

Does this work on a AM3 chipset>

[jamesrogers93]

@meteal666head09 yea it does work on AMD but you probly dont care now because you posted this a month ago lol

[jamesrogers93]

@meteal666head09 *am3

[PatarTheBeast]

I just got this from the NCIX in Vancouver. It is really good!. I have my i5 at 3.8ghz and the idle temps are 30 and load temps are 60!!!

[Jorgie0101]

I have a Zalman CPS9500 LED with a 1156 adapter, do you think this would cool much better than that? I'm not happy with my temps so even a little would help

[sjoerd94]

Scythe Mugan 2 rev. B :)

[OjRuLeSs]

Look at Noctua they packed Intel mounting kit in a nice gray box but AMD kit in a dirt cheap plastic bag LOL

[ThuGfunk]

@OjRuLeSs

because the Intel mounting kit has a big backplate and stuff that prob won't fit in a plastic bag.

[civixboi]

Great Vids man. But is opening computer parts really your job? If so, where could I apply. LOLz.

[GGGunitNextLevel]

You have one of the best jobs in the world

[JohnyBravoSix]

actually this is first street style HSF review I have seen :)

[JohnyBravoSix]

Nice video pal :)

[Albueable]

"If i could get this open, i would most certainly open it. Cause that's what i do, i open things."

love it!

[skaterboy379]

@Albueable ha yea, thats probably the only "box" he's over opened.

ha XD.

[SpongePeet]

Keep up good work!

[jedka]

Thank You Very Much!!!

[mrgoodkat218]

Of course... I like the look of the mounting bracket on the SE2, as opposed to my SE. I got very nervous tightening it against my P6t, and the fit isn't as tight as I would like, although tightened all the way down. Temps are good, but the rubber feet on the new mounting bracket would prevent the butting up against the cpu block on underside of the mobo. Have to think they re-engineered it for a reason...

[dropcitizen]

oh wow 2 fans included, nice value.

[the147break]

can u tell me how to install an extra fan like my gpu card tempreture is too high and i want to install a new 120mm fan for my gtx 285 do i have to install it infront of my gpu card but how? thank you and do i still need to overclock , after installing the 120mm fan and while installing 120mm fan , do i have to change any other origonal fan of my pc or not? help me out plz thank you

[crystal19831]

[REVHE4D]

This coler is great I am running one on my i7 anbd it works well.

[LaczupakabraPL]

Nice! Great review Linus!

Keep it up!

[jblackrupert]

I'm beginning to suspect Linus is a homeless dude hired by NCIX to do reviews, they won't let him inside with his shopping cart.

[AdamDiddy]

Agreed.

[tysonayt]

Seems like a good theory.
