NH-L12
When A10-5800K APU was working with stock clock speed and voltage, temperatures were kept in tight control easily by NH-L12. On idle mode APU temperature on NH-L12 was only 28°c. When using Prime95-program CPU temperature raised up to 42C°. When you use L.N.A adapters temperature will rise, but the effect is minor. On stock clocks NH-L12 cooling performance is very good. The difference between 2 coolers is quite large and NH-L12 wins Scythe Big Shuriken 2-Cooler clearly even with L.N.A adapters.
"[S]mall computers have a need for better coolers than Intel's or AMD's stock fan + cooler setups. Noctua NH-L12 is one of the best choices for this kind of usage. Without upper fan it is only 66mm tall, so that tis very tempting" (Atso Tarujärvi, SF3D.fi)
