“ASUS and Noctua have both gone on to show their engineering class and expertise with the RTX 5080 Noctua Edition. It shows what is possible when premium 5080 graphics cards combine premium cooling capabilities.”

“Come era lecito aspettarsi, il cooler top di gamma di Noctua ha ottenuto il miglior risultato in assoluto fra i dissipatori ad aria, staccando i dissipatori be quiet! che, fino a questo momento, l’avevano sempre fatta da padroni. Persino contro i dissipatori a liquido, il Noctua performa eccezionalmente bene, arrivando a dare del filo da torcere ad alcuni cooler con radiatore da 360mm.”

“Noctua NH-D15 G2 jest doskonałym wyborem dla osób ceniących wysoką wydajność i cichą pracę, bez względu na cenę. Na szczególne wyróżnienie zasługują solidność konstrukcji, praktycznie bezgłośna praca w większości scenariuszy, oraz możliwość wyboru wersji w czarnej kolorystyce.”

“Overall, I still feel the G2 fans are some of the best all-purpose fans on the market. They work extremely well when used on an AIO Radiator or aircooled heatsink where a variable PWM controller can change the fan speed to meet the cooling needs of your system.”

“I never expected the Noctua NH-D15 to still be in active use after a decade, given that I also get bored with hardware quickly and want to change it out. It's a true testament to what a well-designed and engineered piece of hardware can do, and I look forward to a decade with the successor.”

“Le Noctua NF-A14x25 G2 PWM chromax.black non ci hanno riservato particolari sorprese sotto il profilo prestazionale, confermandosi tra le scelte più sensate quando guardiamo al rapporto con la rumorosità.”

“Comme nous le voyions à l’époque lors de notre test, cette génération 2 du NF-A14 se permet d’améliorer les performances tout en réduisant les nuisances sonores. Bref, une copie solide.”

“The Noctua NH-D15 G2 chromax.black is exactly what it should be: a carefully evolved successor to a cooler that already sits at the top of the air-cooling world. Noctua does not try to reinvent anything here. Instead, it takes a proven dual-tower formula and tightens every detail—eight heatpipes, denser fin stacks, a refined base with improved contact geometry, and a matched pair of NF-A14x25r G2 fans. The end result is air cooling that can play in high-end AIO territory, while keeping the low, smooth acoustic profile Noctua is known for.”

“Côté glisse, il n’y a pas grand-chose à redire, au contraire même, ce modèle propose une surface plus glissante et moins restrictive que celle de certains tapis cités durant cet article. En revanche, ce n’est pas un tapis rigide, ça ne glissera donc pas tant, mais les patins de votre souris seront préservés. Mais ce le point fort de ce produit, c’est la frise chronologique mettant en avant les produits phares de Noctua lancés au cours de ces 20 dernières années. De plus, le coloris marron, couleur histoire de la marque, est présent en fond. Après, faut aimer, certains n’en veulent déjà pas dans leur PC alors sur le bureau…”
