NH-L12
High performance cooling has come a long way over the years and while most people associate aftermarket cooling options with overclocking that isn't always the case. In fact some coolers are best suited as high capacity alternatives to the cheap and unattractive OEM designs. NH-L12 installation went incredibly smooth and features one of the best mounting systems we have used. There are two screws that hold the heatsink in place and much to our surprise they are actually quite sturdy. This is likely due to the mounts actually being attached to the heatsink instead of just floating on top.
"Overall performance was very good. Our heat tests showed that the Noctua NH-L12 could handle a typical overclock despite the rise in our C/W results and did keep up with the Hyper 212 reference cooler despite the obvious size difference." (Dennis Garcia, NinjaLane.com)
