Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14 s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system, Noctua s proven NT-H1 thermal compound and full 6 years manufacturer s warranty, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.Based on the award-winning NH-D14Noctua s NH-D14 has received more than 350 awards and recommendations from leading international hardware websites and magazines, making it one of the most successful premium heatsinks ever built. With its expanded layout and dual NF-A15 fans, the NH-D15 further improves the D14 s much acclaimed quiet cooling performance.6 heatpipe dual tower designAs compared to conventional single tower heatinks, the NH-D15 s fine-tuned six heatpipe dual tower design provides more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency in dual fan mode.Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15 s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15 s superior efficiency.High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high end RAM modules on the market. In dual fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard height RAM (up to 32mm).Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua s premium class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market.SecuFirm2 mounting systemNoctua s SecuFirm2 mounting systems have become synonymous with quality, safety and ease of use. Supporting Intel LGA115x (LGA1150, LGA1155, LGA1156), LGA2011 and AMD (AM3(+), AM2(+), FM1, FM2(+)), the SecuFirm2 mounting included with the NH-D15 guarantees perfect contact pressure and maximum convenience on all current sockets.NT-H1 thermal compoundHaving received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.6 years warrantyNoctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding longevity.
