Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 Core i7 Specific CPU Cooler
The last review I did for Noctua was of the NH-U9B
which is sort of the little brother to the NH-U12P that Chris reviewed for us
earlier on. This time Noctua sends the newest variation, the NH-U12P SE1366 CPU
cooler. The SE or "Special Edition" refers to this model being Core
i7 specific. The NH-U12P tested very well amongst our other coolers, so I
expect no less from Noctua with this SE version.
The whole idea here is that Noctua has taken an
already proven cooler and "spiced it up" a bit to handle the demand
of the new Core i7 processors. Noctua has designed and engineered their new
mounting system and named it the SecuFirm2™. This is a Corei7 specific mount
which means that this cooler is only applicable to said processors and
motherboards. Time again to get some images and strap the NH-U12P SE1366 CPU
cooler to the T.E.C.C. and see if Noctua, has once again, provided end-users
with another way to silently handle our processors. @ Tweaktown
