Product Description
Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua’s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14’s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.

---|---|---|---|
Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15's fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15's superior efficiency. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high end RAM modules on the market. In dual fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard height RAM (up to 32mm). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua's premium class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua's AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua's much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After the install of this, the highest temp I have observed is 70c while in intense firefights. The average temperature in game is around 63c for all cores. Temps during idle or non game activities is around 33c.
I normally do not write reviews, but this is a good system for overclocking (within reason) and I would recommend it. I was also concerned about the size, which was a non issue as you can mount it two different directions depending on your needs. The ONLY negative I have to say about this is, you have to remove the motherboard to install the backplate, which just takes more time. Overall great product if you are looking to get a bit more out of your system, or just keep it running cooler.
-Almost everything you can read about this online seems to be true from what I've seen while running it. Temperatures are great, it's very quiet, and is a quality product. I stress-tested my Ryzen 9 7950X with Prime95 and the cooler manages to keep it at a rock-steady 75C during prime-number searches. It would probably hold a lower temp with a more aggressive cooling curve, but it's plenty good enough. It definitely works really well, even better than my all-in-one radiator.
-The installation isn't the *hardest* but the size of the heat sink and the clips for attaching the fans to it are a bit finnicky. The heat sink is so wide it will obscure 3 or 4 pin fan plug-in points on the motherboard underneath it. If you have wire extensions, plug them in on the board before any installation so you aren't trying to do keyhole surgery to plug in the fans. The instructions also do not show you how to attach the clips to the #2 fan, so you need to look at the one that is pre-installed for a reference.
-I needed to remove my GPU for this installation because the product is so large that you need the room to work.
-Cleaning probably isn't too bad, but might require disassembly of the whole thing for a deep-clean. Be ready for almost the entire reinstallation procedure if you want to clean it. Not much worse than maintaining other cooling equipment though, if you ask me.
-The price is a little high at first glance, but I feel like the cooling performance and ease of use of the AI Suite software more than makes up for it. Looking at you, Corsair! Your iCue software sucks ass!
-Installation process from me:
I recommend plugging in at least one or two of the wire extensions that they supply you with onto the board immediately so your plugs are ready to go.
Take the fan that came preinstalled OUT or you cannot screw the heatsink down onto the CPU. Get your standoffs and mounting brackets in place.
Screw the heatsink down after applying your thermal paste.
Reattach the fan you removed from the center. Be sure to note which direction the air is flowing! Each fan is labeled with arrows showing the direction the blades turn and the direction the air flows through it!
Attach fan #2, and plug both fans in.
Reinstall any other hardware you removed for the installation, like I did with my GPU.
Top reviews from other countries
Hay que considerar el tamaño físico de la RAM ya que debido a eso se tiene que elevar más uno de los ventiladores sobrepasando muchas veces el límite del gabinete (ojo con eso). En un gabinete con Clearance - CPU Cooler de 190 mm queda excelente.
En cuanto a la instalación fue bastante fácil, como empecé de cero, primero instale el procesador y después la base del disipador antes de poner la motherboard en el gabinete (ya que es estorboso), luego hice una prueba de colocación para ver que embone bien y su dificultad de ensamblaje. Al ver que entraba sin problemas lo quite y ya casi al final de todo el ensamblaje (antes de poner la tarjeta gráfica) coloqué la pasta térmica y lo instalé sin problemas.
Si no te gusta su aspecto físico, venden por aparte un kid de belleza que consta en un par de cubiertas para este modelo. En cuanto a la disipación hay muchos videos de prueba de rendimiento.
En lo pesonal me encanta que tengas casi una turbina de avión en tu configuración, aunque eso sí, es extremadamente silencioso.

I did not expect this beast to be the size it was, but after following the instructions and mounting it...what's that...silence. Not only silence, but also temperatures that rivals my old AIO liquid cooler.
It is massive, it is quite heavy, but the mounting bracket it came with for AM5 was large and sturdy, and once firmly in place, it felt solid. With a drop of Artic MX-6, this had very decent idle temperatures, and using my Asus motherboards standard fan-sweep auto-set-up the fans run steady and quiet, if not un-noticeable . Manually setting speed for testing only really kicked in the fan sound at 80%, its very reasonable for a fan only cooler.
Have tried it in two different cases, the Fractal Design R5 and the Pop XL Silent, and fits with space to spare in both.
Now the downsides, which can be important, but easily avoidable. The size, that is it, only the size its its downfall. If you have a small case, this will not fit, no way, Its wide, its long, its deep.
In my server, ASUS H170-PRO with socket LGA1151, I could not fit my test graphics card as well as the cooler (without fans installed), as the cooler extended up to the top PCIE slot. Its width as well blocked use of the second fan to the front of the case also due to the furthest left RAM sockets being used. The secondary fan can be installed on either left or right section of the cooler, however it depends on clearance also to any heatsinks near the I/O area of the board, and any external case fans.
If you are getting this, I would highly recommend to look at your clearances on not only your case, but also your motherboard, for your PCIE 4.0 slot, and your RAM slot location. This shouldn't be as much of a problem on Full ATX boards than MATX, but still worth heading to the manufactures website to read on specs.
Le ventirad est énorme, il faut une tour à l'ancienne pour la place.
Monté sur une carte mère ASUS Prime Z790-A Wifi, ça passe, mais prévoir tout de même de mettre les cartes mémoire et SSD M.2 en avance...
A la mise en service, très peu de bruit, moins que mes ventilos neufs de la tour... Et le processeur ne dépasse pas les 35°C...
Bref, pas d'eau, simple, gros, super, je ne peux que conseillé.
La capacidad de refrigeración es increíble. Mi CPU ahora se mantiene a temperaturas muy bajas incluso durante cargas intensas y sesiones de juego prolongadas.
Hablando de ruido, este disipador es realmente silencioso, pero hay que bajarle en la configuración un poco la velocidad, ya que de serie puede ser molesto.
Además, la instalación fue sencilla y bien guiada por las instrucciones detalladas de Noctua. No tuve problemas para adaptarlo a mi plataforma, y todo encajó perfectamente.
Como punto a tener en cuenta en su tamaño, ya que tuve que subirle algo la altura a uno de los ventiladores porque tocaba con la ram, hay que asegurarse que luego puedes cerrar la caja, es un autentico bicho en tamaño.
Como punto negativo... bueno, los noctua no son precisamente famosos por su bonita estética.
