## Description

Buy Noctua NH-L12 Ghost S1 Edition, High-Performance Low-Profile CPU Cooler | 66mm Height, ITX SFF Low-Noise Cooling, 4 Heatpipes, For Intel & AMD, 92mm Fan, Ghost S1 Compatible, Rich Accessory Kit: CPU Cooling Fans - desertcart.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY possible on eligible purchases

Review: Great for ITX build using i5-12000k - CASE, MOBO, CPU, RAM, GPU: Black Lian Li Q58, ASRock Z690M-ITX/ax, i5-12000k, Corsair LPX RAM (16GBx2)- low profile RAM, MSI 3060 TI PC USAGE: I do some light gaming, and run multiple VM's but not at the same time. Occasionally some beginner level video editing. REVIEW: If you want to air cool this case with this CPU/GPU combo or similar team RED, this is the best cooling option for you IMO. The build quality is excellent, the fan is dead quiet. I am using low profile RAM, so your mileage may vary. The case clearance is 67mm and this has a height of 66mm, and while tight, I can assure you it does not touch the case and I have no issues with turbulence. I believe there is about 1.5mm-2mm of gap between the rad and the case. The fan sits a bit lower than the top of the radiator and vents 100% to the mesh panel of the case, so pretty much ideal. The radiator is perhaps 15% obstructed when the case is closed. Mounting: attach base plate prior to installing MOBO in case (the threads on the plate are mounted up) There is provided Noctua thermal paste with at least two applications. The radiator screws down into the base plate (using a provided screwdriver) through two holes in the radiator.- Mine came with AMD4 mounting hardware as well as LGA 1700. This will likely be the last step to complete the build. Make sure you plug into all the correct headers prior to mounting because the cooler/radiator will cover some of the headers and RAM. You will not be able to see the cooler fan in the case, as it is behind the rad. PS- the green glow is a MOBO light I never notice it while working and it does not bother me at night, I think the radiator diminishes/ shadows it.
Review: Ideal for SFF. Be prepared to underclock high end CPUs. - CPU: 9950x3d MB: Gigabyte x870i AORUS Case: Falcon NW Tiki Upgraded the internals of my SFF PC. Previous MB/CPU combo allowed for Corsair H50 but the upgraded MB did not allow space. PC used for gaming and work. Temperatures reached 98*C when gaming. Proceeded to underclock to 1.15V with no major detriments to performance. Did not use PBO, simply voltage underclock. Temperatures never break 70*C now. Highly recommend this but be prepared to underclock and run benchmarks to find the specs that fit your needs!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It it fit on the asus strict x570-i? the shroud is big on that mobo.**
A: Yes it fits. I have it installed on this mobo.

**Q: Does it come with brackets to install a 120mm fan on top?**
A: If you email Noctua, they'll be more than happy to send you them. Customer service at the finest.

**Q: The heatsink is pushing against my case side panel. Do any of you have the same issue?**
A: Mine just barely touches but not pushing. Some people have reported the product being bent on delivery. So if its only one side of the radiator touching then this is probably the same issue.

**Q: Is there are compatible asus rog z490i m/b and gskill trident z rgb ram?**
A: If you stick with the stock fan, the trident z will fit. Cooler has no problems fitting on that motherboard if you remove the m.2 heatsink cover.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fit in my NZXT H1 v1
*by T***. on April 28, 2024*

Man...NZXT should be ashamed. The 140mm rad they included in the H1 was absolutely destroyed by this thing. Dropped idle temps by 10°C easily, and I'm hovering at 75°C on a full Blender run. Legitimately the best air cooler I've ever encountered. Just be careful, the thing is...BEYOND pointy ;)
