Normally I would show the installation kit here but there wasn’t really much to show. However I wanted to share the open box with you because it just looked so fantastic. As you can see Noctua included a whole tube of NT-H1 thermal compound, a low noise adapter for the fan to limit its speed, four screws for mounting, a Noctua badge and the product itself. Four longer screws are included but I couldn’t work out what they were needed for! As always the included instructions are very concise and up to a high standard.
As I mentioned earlier from the top the 92mm Noctua fan dominates the aesthetics. The fan blows down so airflow also goes over your VRM which is nice.
As promised, no RAM compatibility issues. You can see the Trident X fits fine, any other tall RAM will do too. I have only done this for demonstration purposes, anyone building a HTPC should just buy some 1600MHz low profile RAM otherwise it is just complete over-kill in my opinion.
One thing I will say now is, when you install this it is an incredibly close fit with your motherboard capacitors around the CPU socket. But for those who worry about metal touching metal, fear not as the design is mm perfect and sits about 3mm above the caps so there is no contact. The product fits the LGA 115X sockets perfectly.
