NA-FK1 redux
So, I suppose at this point you are curious how much better the upgrade kit makes the Noctua NH-U12S REDUX? Well, the short answer is, a lot more than we were honestly expecting! – While the second fan does, of course, add a little to the acoustic output, without any modifications to the fan speed from the BIOS, you can clearly see below that in general operation, the upgrade kit does manage to shave off around 2-4C at maximum load. A massive margin? No, but CPU cooler performance does often come down to just degrees from separating the decent from the great!
"So, would we recommend the upgrade kit? Well, given how much it costs and the extra (and measurable) performance it clearly provides, we think you’d be somewhat foolish to not at least consider it!" (Mike Sanders, eTeknix.com)
