CPU cooling Noctua NH-D15, 250 W TDP, 6 heat pipes

Noctua NH-D15

Based on the legendary NH-D14 model and structurally enhanced to improve cooling efficiency, Noctua’s flagship NH-D15 is an excellent choice for the most demanding users.

6 heat pipes, dual-radiator design
Compared to a standard CPU cooler, this model features six heat pipes, and the NH-D15’s dual-radiator design provides a larger surface area for airflow, better heat distribution, and superior airflow efficiency when using two fans.

Larger heatsink fins and an improved heat pipe layout
Compared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15’s fins have been enlarged from 140 to 150 mm, and its heat pipes are now spaced farther apart, allowing heat to be distributed more evenly across a larger surface area and thereby contributing to higher efficiency.

Compatibility
Thanks to a groove at the bottom of the heatsink, the NH-D15 provides 64 mm of clearance for tall RAM heatsinks in single-fan mode, making it compatible with most bulky memory modules on the market. When using two fans, the NH-D15 should be paired with standard-height memory modules (up to 32 mm).

A pair of 140-mm NF-A15 fans
The NH-D15 is equipped with two premium-class Noctua NF-A15 140-mm fans. Compliance with Noctua’s AIO standard, combined with a sophisticated aerodynamic design and the Flow Acceleration Channels system, has allowed the NF-A15 to quickly earn a reputation as one of the best 140-mm fans on the market.

PWM Support and Low-Noise Adaptor
The premium NF-A15 fans support PWM for convenient automatic speed control. In addition, the fan’s maximum speed can be reduced from 1,500 to 1,200 RPM using the included adapter for even quieter operation.

System-Wide Cooling
Thanks to the heatsink’s design, the large NF-A15 fans not only cool the heatsink itself but also circulate air over adjacent motherboard components, thereby ensuring excellent cooling performance.

SecuFirm2 Mounting System
Noctua’s SecuFirm2 mounting systems have become synonymous with quality, safety, and ease of use. Support for Intel LGA115x (LGA1150, LGA1155, LGA1156), LGA2011, and AMD (AM3(+), AM2(+), FM1, FM2(+)). SecuFirm2 guarantees maximum ease of use.

Wide Compatibility
When used with the optional NM-I3 mounting kit (not included), the NH-D15 is compatible with LGA1366 and LGA775 sockets. Noctua will also provide upgrade kits for future sockets, if technically feasible.

NT-H1 Thermal Paste
With over 100 awards and recommendations from authoritative computer hardware magazines worldwide, Noctua NT-H1 is a proven, professional-grade solution that ensures minimal thermal resistance, ease of use, and high reliability.

6-Year Warranty
Noctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding durability. Like all Noctua fans, the included NF-A15 fans have a failure-free lifespan of over 150,000 hours, and the entire NH-D15 kit also comes with a 6-year manufacturer’s warranty.
