Zaključak

Kada god imamo prilike testirati Noctuine proizvode, iznova se oduševimo količinom
truda koji je uložen u njihov dizajn, konstrukciju i opremanje. Noctuini inženjeri
kao da misle na sve, pa se korisnik svakim korakom, od otvaranja kutije do prvog
pokretanja računala nakon što je u njega ugrađen Noctuin ventilator ili hladnjak,
uvjerava da je relativno velik iznos koji je bilo potrebno izdvojiti za novo
hlađenje zaista dobro uložen. Noctua NH-C12P prati ovu tradiciju, pa za realno
visoku svotu od 460 kn (na domaćem tržištu) nudi laku montažu, kvalitetnu izradu,
dobre performanse, tih rad i dodatnu fleksibilnost u obliku adaptera za smanjivanje
brzine ventilatora. Da stvar bude bolja, kao i ostali Noctuini proizvodi i ovaj
takoder ima jamstveni rok od punih šest godina što je, priznat ćete, prilično
nečuveno za jedan hladnjak za procesor. Osim cijene, jedina mana ovog hladnjaka
je to što se ne isporučuje u paketu s mehanizmom za montažu na LGA1366 procesore
već je ovaj kit potrebno dokupiti.

Conclusion

Whenever we get an opportunity to fiddle with Noctua`s products, we are delighted
to see how much effort this company is investing into their design, manufacturing
quality and equipment. It seems like Noctua’s engineers know exactly what a
demanding user likes and wants. So with each step, from opening of the box in
which product is sold, to the first time computer is started after installation
of a new fan or a CPU cooler, user is repeatedly assured that a relatively large
amount of money spent on a new cooling system is indeed well invested. Noctua
NH-C12P follows this tradition by offering easy installation, good construction
and performance, low noise and added flexibility in the form of fan speed adapters,
at a pretty steep price of 460 kunas (price in Croatia, includes VAT, about
60 Euros). To sweeten up the deal, this product is covered with Noctua’s standard
6 years warranty which is pretty much unheard of in high-end cooler market.
To put you in a perspective, high-end power supplies usually have 3 to 5 years
warranty. Last but not least, apart from high price, only real deficiency of
this cooler is the fact that it is not shipped with a LGA1366 mounting kit which
has to be bought separately.
