Noctua

The 120mm Premium Cooler NH-U12A represents the latest, fifth generation of Noctua's award-winning NH-U12 series. To extract even more performance from the 120mm form factor, it is equipped with two units of the exceptionally quiet flagship fan NF-A12x25 PWM and features a completely newly developed heatsink with 7 heat pipes and increased surface area for even better heat dissipation. This allows the NH-U12A to compete with many 140mm CPU coolers while still offering the case and PCIe compatibility of the 120mm class. The overall high-quality package is rounded off by the proven SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system, Noctua's renowned NT-H1 quality thermal paste, and a full 6-year manufacturer’s warranty. Its top-notch cooling performance, excellent compatibility, and outstanding quiet operation make the NH-U12A a true premium solution for the highest demands.

Key specifications

Socket

A CPU socket or CPU slot is a mechanical component that provides mechanical and electrical connections between a microprocessor and a printed circuit board (PCB). This allows the CPU to be replaced without soldering.
Common sockets have retention clips that apply a constant force, which must be overcome when a device is inserted. For chips with a large number of pins, either zero-insertion force (ZIF) sockets or land grid array (LGA) sockets are used instead. These designs apply a compression force once either a handle (for ZIF type) or a surface plate (LGA type) is put into place. This provides superior mechanical retention while avoiding the risk of bending pins when inserting the chip into the socket.
