The Noctua NH-L12S is an air cooling solution engineered specifically for chassis requiring low-profile components, such as HTPC and Small Form Factor (SFF) systems. Standing at a height of 70 mm, this unit offers necessary clearance while providing thermal management for processors up to a 120W TDP. Heat is drawn away from the CPU via a nickel-plated copper base, transferred through four 6 mm copper heat pipes, and dissipated across the aluminum fin stack.
Cooling is executed by a single 120 mm NF-A12x15 fan featuring PWM support for automated speed regulation. The fan operates across a range of 450 to 1850 revolutions per minute (RPM), generating a maximum airflow of 94.2 m³/h. At its highest operational speed, the noise output is rated at 23.9 dB, leveraging the integrated SSO2 bearing system for long-term acoustic stability. The cooler utilizes the SecuFirm2 mounting system, providing wide compatibility with current Intel LGA 1700/1851 and AMD AM5 sockets.
