Our Verdict
The Noctua NH-D15S is the asymmetric version of Noctua's flagship dual-tower cooler: it uses one 140mm fan instead of two and shifts its heatsink away from the first PCIe slot, so large graphics cards fit even on boards where the slot sits close to the CPU. It cools high-power processors almost as well as the two-fan NH-D15 while staying quiet, and Noctua's SecuFirm2 mounting supports Intel LGA1851 and LGA1700 and AMD AM5 and AM4. It has about 1,900 Amazon ratings at 4.8 stars and a 6-year warranty. Like all large dual-tower coolers, it needs about 160mm of case clearance, so check before buying. Choose the NH-D15S for a quiet air-cooled build where graphics card or RAM clearance is tight; if space isn't an issue, the NH-D15 or a cheaper dual-tower cooler gives similar results.
