Introduction

They say silence is golden and if you're married, it is platinum. Nothing agitates my wife more than my electronics making an excessive amount of noise, and trust me I hear about it. So when it comes to computer parts, the quieter the better, as far as I am concerned. And considering I have a massive amount of electronics in my bedroom, which doubles as my living room these days, I try to reduce the noise as much as possible.

The Noctua NH-C12P CPU cooler is a ninja when it comes to sound and a Sumo wrestler when it comes to cooling. The NH-C12P cooler by Noctua comes with three speed settings and Noctua's very own special brand of thermal paste. The NH-C12P cooler was designed with compatibility and effectiveness in mind. The Noctua NH-C12P has six heat pipes and air flow gaps to allow maximum cooling of the CPU and assist in the cooling of the motherboard.

The Product

The Noctua NH-C12P box has a distinct color pattern that can not be mistaken for any other product. And the box does a nice job of giving a visual of the mounting system of the NH-C12P.
