Smart FAQs

1. Does the NH-L12S fit on LGA2066 and LGA2011 motherboards?

   Yes — the NH-L12S is supplied with mounting hardware compatible with Intel LGA2066 and LGA2011 series sockets for secure installation.

2. Will it block tall RAM modules?

   No — the low-profile layout is designed to preserve RAM clearance; in most configurations it leaves ample space for taller modules.

3. Is this cooler loud under load?

   Noctua’s slim NF-A12x15 PWM fan is optimized for high airflow at low noise. With PWM control and the included low-noise adapter, acoustic levels remain pleasantly low even under moderate load.

4. Can it cool high-core-count workstation CPUs?

   It performs very well for compact workstation builds and is recommended for CPUs up to typical mainstream/high-end TDPs (~95W). For extreme overclocked or very high TDP CPUs, consider larger tower coolers or liquid solutions.

5. Is thermal paste included?

   Yes — Noctua includes a tube of NT-H1 thermal paste in the box for first-time assembly.

6. How long is the warranty and how does Vlebazaar support it?

   Noctua provides a 6-year manufacturer warranty. Vlebazaar confirms genuine product registration, handles dispatch, and assists customers with warranty claims and support throughout the process.

7. Does the fan use a standard connector?

   Yes — the cooler uses a standard 4‑pin PWM connector for motherboard-based speed control.
