Greater than one weekHave a mid tower case with a flat side panel? This probably wont fit. I had to trim mine down a bit in order to fit, and even then its still in contact with my glass side panel.

> 3 dayAs per the usual Noctua standards, the Noctua Heatsink cover was well packaged, well engineered, and had great instructions for installation. I have to say that it simply looks great on the Heatsink, and it gives the heatsink a much more finished kind of look. It is very easy to install. The sides of the shroud that cover the sides of the heatsink fit fine and still fit flush despite the fan clips being underneath. You will have to remove the shroud to remove the fan, and the fan clips. If you feel creative enough, there is enough room at the top of the shroud to install an LED or RGB LED light strip underneath the shroud, and to replace the colored inserts with a hand cut white translucent plastic insert, (think plastic coffee can lid), and run the wire to the Motherboard, and synch it up with a Motherboard RGB LED. Now you have a genuine Noctua RGB LED heatsink cover.

> 3 dayLooks good but overpriced in my opinion and should probably just come as a standard accessory with the coolers.

Greater than one weekOne of if not THE best air cooler on the market, and can add bling? come on. I was going with a white/black theme and this was a must. Very easy to install.

> 3 dayInstalled on my Chromax Black NH-U12S cooler, but the white really compliments the all black fan. Looks great in my white-themed build. Super easy to install. It does add a few millimeters to the coolers height, though, so double check theres enough clearance to your case side cover.

> 3 dayI purchased a Noctua NH-U12S chromax.Black cooler and didnt want to go with a complete blackout scheme on the CPU. So purchasing this in white suited my black and white scheme. Its easy to install and its held on by magnets. It is solid when the magnets touch. Make sure the top and the sides do not wobble. If there is wobbling, move it around side to side very lightly. Sooner or later you will feel it shift and lock into place. Even though the white almost matches my white case, Im going to paint it a white color (its nice to know its safe to paint) that matches the case and do some steampunk designs on it. That way it fits my theme.

High-quality powder-coated aluminiumTired of flimsy, thin plastic faceplates? The chromax line heatsink covers are made from sturdy, 1mm-thick aluminium and feature a scratch-resistant powder-coating finish in order to match the build quality of your Noctua heatsink. |
Match with industrialPPC or chromax fans and padsNoctua’s chromax line heatsink covers are a perfect match for the black industrialPPC and chromax.black.swap fans, both of which can be colour-customised using chromax anti-vibration pads and cables (available in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow). |
Easy installationInstalling Noctua’s chromax line heatsink covers is child’s play: Put the fixture on top of the cooler, secure it with the steel clip, slide on the cover until the magnets snap into place – done! You don’t even have to remove the cooler from the CPU or take off the fan. |
Endless options for customisationDo you want to give your entire heatsink a custom colour to take things one step further? While spray-painting heatsinks is difficult and reduces performance, Noctua’s powder-coated chromax covers can easily be repainted with custom colours and decorations. |
The NA-HC1 chromax.black.swap comes with swappable inlays in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow that allow colour-coordinating the heatsink with most popular build colour schemes. Whether you’re designing your dream machine for the years to come or switch parts on a monthly basis, matching colours has never been so easy!
