Just got this thicc boy in the post today. Just what in the heck am I in for?

i'm itching to pull the trigger on either an nh-d15s + chromax shit or a le grand macho RT. i'm hoping Noctua releases the black version of the D15 line soon, they announced it at computex last year and haven't said shit since

yeah all the extra fans and accessories cost my sorry arse another hundred bucks after commiefornia taxes, be ready

I heard this kind of coolers are not that good for the motherboard cooling

Nah it's why it isn't shrouded
If u have shit airflow through your case your mobos vrm and ssd/chipset gonna get hot anyway

those fans are super quiet. You can't even hear them.

Plates ontop of heatsink is ugly

Heard people getting cooler vrms with large tower vs. Aio coolers here, but they probably didnt have adequate airflow with the aio

Looks like my commieblock
