The crew at pcGameware have posted a review of the Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooler today. For comparison purposes, you can see our evaluation here.

The build quality of the Noctua NH-D15 was incredibly high and sturdy enough to prevent damage during multiple installations. The CPU Cooler itself was huge measuring in at 165mm(H)x150mm(W)x161mm(D) while weighing in at a mammoth 1320g; while offering industrious styling using bare aluminium and those familiar beige and brown Noctua fans. Just looking at the NH-D15 gives you the impression that Noctua certainly mean business.

Talking about this cooler or the D14 on a date always gets me in the door and then some.

It's that good. Just sayin'.
 
Thanks for the review Steve. Have you done one of these reviews that include a recent version the 212 Cooler Master? It'd be a nice baseline to compare against to see how valuable the upgrade is in comparison to a 30$ cooler :)

I searched around but couldn't find one.
 
It would also be nice to see how better it is with a more CFM fan. (some poeple dont care about the noise)

Seems odd to go the Noctua route if you don't care about noise. Better cooling options out there if you don't mind bumping the dBm
 
Is the Nh-D15 44dBA sound level a miss-print? I thought the NH-D15 was more like 34dBA/

Would be interesting to see how the Cryorig would perform with NF-A15 1500rpm fans. ;)
