Description, highlights, and specifications from the retailer feed.

Specialised Low Base Convexity Version for AMD AM5/AM4 without the use of offset mounting bars. 8 heatpipes & 20% more surface area for higher heat-loads Dual NF-A14x25r G2 PWM fans with speed-offset Height (with fans): 168 mm Width (with fans): 150 mm Depth (with fans): 152 mm Weight (with fans): 1525 g Copper (base and heat-pipes), aluminium (cooling fins), soldered joints & nickel plating Noctua is a leading developer and manufacturer of premium cooling solutions for PC systems, including CPU coolers, fans, and accessories. Based in Vienna, Noctua stands for precision engineering, quiet operation, and uncompromising build quality. Is the NH-D15 G2 compatible with my CPU socket? It is compatible with AM5, AM4, LGA1700, LGA1851, LGA115x and LGA1200. With additional mounting parts it can also be made compatible with AM2(+), AM3(+), FM1, FM2(+), LGA1366, LGA20xx Square ILM and LGA775. Which version of the NH-D15 G2 should I buy (LBC, standard or HBC)? The standard NH-D15 G2 is recommended as the best allrounder. The HBC version is ideal for LGA1700 without socket modifications, while the LBC version is best for AM4 and AM5 when not using our offset mounting bars. What’s the difference between the NH-D15 G2 and the first-generation NH-D15? On popular, modern AMD and Intel CPUs the NH-D15 G2 will typically perform 2-3°C better. Is the NH-D15 G2 compatible with my case? Make sure that the case allows for a cooler height of at least 168mm. Please note that the cooler height will increase when your RAM modules are taller than 32mm. Detailed compatibility information is available on the Noctua website.

  • Further improved second generation of the iconic, award-winning NH-D15: Even better quiet cooling performance thanks to 8 heatpipes, 20% more surface area and novel NF-A14x25r G2 fans!
  • Caution: Not recommended for use on Intel LGA1700, LGA1200 or LGA115x! Please choose the regular NH-D15 G2 or the NH-D15 G2 HBC (High Base Convexity) version for these platforms!
  • Two state-of-the-art NF-A14x25r G2 140mm fans with speed-offset for acoustic fine-tuning, Low-Noise Adaptors and PWM for automatic speed control: maximum efficiency under load, near silent at idle!
  • Offset design with recessed lower fins clears top PCIe x16 on most current motherboards and offers 59mm RAM clearance in single fan mode (32mm with both fans, see Noctua Compatibility Centre)
