Put me on the list for Noctua NH-U12F .

Roughly how long we have to wait boss ? Also , deposit now or only when
the total MOQ for bulk is reached .

Rgds,

Boss , I will put forward the deposit to you when the bulk reached 8 ppl ( or 8 units
confirmed ) . How about that ?

8 is lucky number for everyone and I have reason to believe it will gain more momentum once the bulk reached that number .

Noctua NH-U12F itself is an excellent product be it the HS or the fan .

To those out there , who doesn't know about about the Noctua products .
Here's the comparison , It belong to the same performance bracket ( if not
better than the Zalman 9700 -LED ) .

In terms of quietness( for HS with fan cooling ) I think , the Noctua will take the
crown . Not even the Zalman 9700 can beat this one .

Noctua can beats out a Thermalright XP-120 , here http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/noctua/testing.htm

Ppl buy Noctua for a reason , its superior cooling effects and
super-quiet fan-operated environment .

Dont think there is a fan-cooled HSF products out there that can operate
like the NH-U12F at 7~8 db and yet still produce optimal cooling effects .

You wont regret buying a Noctua HSF , bro . Especially the NH-12F .

The thermalright Ultra 120 can perform better than the XP-120 about 4~5 deg.C at load . No doubt about it .

For me I will try to use the the Noctua NH-U12F with an Noctua A.L.N.A. ( Ultra Low noise adapter ; bundled only with NH-U12F )which only generate about 7db~ 8db and still would achieve about 95% efficiency for the cooling operation .

For me the extra 4~5 deg C won't kill your CPU . Unless your CPU is running at something like >75 deg. C .

I bet there is NO fan-cooled HS that can beat the Noctua at this noise level .
NOT even the Ultra-120 with fan .

Again ppl looking at the best cooling solution performance nowadays should look to a
water-cooling system NOT a fan cooling system . Buy the water-cooling
HS from Zalman / Thermaltake and they will beat the daylight out of MOST
of the fan-cooled HS now available in market this include their own brand , Zalman , Thermaltake , Thermalright , or even an Noctua .

I believe ppl who want to buy a Noctua have already understood that they are setting up a ultra -Low noise system and still achieve the optimal cooling effect
for their CPU .

For ppl looking for performance , should consider getting himself a water-cooled
HS instead of fan-cooled . We are talking about low noise set-up here .
Also I believe that for most of us that sets up a pc , the cpu fan is not the only fan inside the casing . HDD and Optical Drive can also gererate some sort of noise. Myself , I use 3 X 120mm L.S. fans for my CM830 ( 1100 rpm Tt fan X 2 ) one from my ACBEL P.S. - 550W ) and still hear some noise coming out . That's how I interpret noise in my usage .

I do not know if a 1600rpm fan cannot generate noise because it is subjective
to different ppl's ears. For me , it is better if I can keep the noise level as low
as possible for my work environment .

Again , ppl looking for cooling performance might have diff interpretation about
noise level , so this debate might well go on for another 5 pages .

I think we should stop debate about performance vs noise level as this is
Noctua NH-U12F we are talking about here . Ppl that want performance
with "his tolerable noise level " can always look else where to get his stuff .

Or maybe start his thread to debate about the top performing HSF . I believe
there is a lot of ppl out there who can give their valuable comments .

No argument here . I just want to get my Noctua NH-U12F .

Anyway , agreed that above average/good WC is very costly to own .
For ppl who wants performance , maybe they are ready to pay for that .

Just feel discontented when ppl want to argue about this HSF better than that .
and so forth . The argument will be endless , I dont intend to start one .

I am ready to place my deposit , the bulk is picking up momentum also.

Hopefully we can hit the MOQ in the next 2~3 weeks . Ppl that wants the
Noctua fan or HS only can join with their fren/fellow lyters/ to combine their
order . Then this way , the MOQ for this bulk can speed up .

Mari , mari , mari , you cant go wrong with a Noctua .

Go ahead !!!!

Hey guys who's interested but are holding back due to the initial price , what are you guys waiting for ?

rm200 to get a Noctua NH-U12F is an unbeatable offer !!!

Come , come grab it !!!

Sorry . kind of busy these 2 days . Already sent the pics of the bank-in receipt to yr
hotmail .

Will bank in the full amount for you next week . I want to get a tube of AS from u as well .

Thanks .
