Posted January 19, 2017 Is it coming? Are they waiting for Ryzen too? I want to at least get a single part for my new computer. I can't even get a case yet, as not sure if ITX or m-ATX motherboards will be available for Ryzen on launch... But I digress. Has anyone heard anything from Noctua? Insider knowledge, spies, testing leaks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 19, 2017 They've had various prototypes at all the tech shows, but nothing has cropped up so far... USEFUL LINKS: PSU Tier List | F@H stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 19, 2017 Probably not soon, i mean iirc there are a few years between the NH-D14 and the NH-D15 and it's not exactly a big improvement. Just get the NH-D15, if they release a newer one in a few years the difference would be barely measureable at best unless they figure out something amazing. If you want my attention, quote meh!

Do you know if the D15 supports the Ryzen socket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you can prove you bought one Oh wow, didn't know that that was a thing. Only problem with the Noctua D15/14, are the hideous looking fans. but apparently they can be swapped out. They might be good but the colour is freaking awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 20, 2017 Making such a cooler would be oddly specific. The NH-D15 uses NF-A15's which are essentially NF-A14's with a different frame. A 160mm fan would probably have to be designed on it's own just for the cooler as opposed to adapting an existing model. A fan of that size would also mean a very tall cooler. The NH-D15 has a 160mm tall heatsink and fits in most cases because 160mm is the unofficial height for tall tower coolers and the usual clearance provided by cases. Moved to Air Cooling.

So no 200mm for my Core V21 which is my most likely case for Ryzen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read, they should come out in Q1 or Q2 this year if they don't get delayed again.
