cool and quiet

This review is from: Noctua NH-U12S, Premium CPU Cooler with NF-F12 120mm Fan (Brown)
Pros:
a little early to review, but my cpu is running cool and the fan runs whisper quiet just as i expected. it's not a complicated device.
Cons:
doesn't fit as the noctua web site indicated. minus one egg!
Overall Review:
i'd be a bit off about the motherboard vendor since i thought the first ram slot was a bit close. however the noctua web site states it is 100% compatible with all ram, bologna! i'm taking an egg for that sorry.
technically it does work, but i can't have it touching my ram and it definitely does in it's standard config. instead of placing the fan in a pull on the i/o side and reconfiguring the clip like a second fan would be, i moved the fan up to ride over the ram in a standard push configuration, which worked quite well.
again great engineering and it's a snap to install, but it would be nice if i had a third hand. the tool provided is not so great, but can help.
the fan would fit over low profile ram no problem, but who wants low profile ram? maybe in a server or non-window case.
great product.
