Other Manufacturers: Include some piece of paper on how to install the cooler Noctua: Here's a 15' video on every singel aspect you have to consider for your silent build Nice
Well, this is also a decidedly non-standard cooler,it warrants a little extra explanation, you can't just slap this thing into your rig and call it a day
heh the free AM4 bracket kit they provide for older coolers like the NH-D14...is packaged so damn beautifully...I get the feeling Noctua cares a LOT of about it's products and customers. This video doesn't surprise me, they care and care a lot.
I absolutly love Noctua's brand, this company is insane with how much they care about products they sell and that they put so much effort to do every one of those compatibility lists etc. that's amazing and that's why I love this brand
You will get much better deals with other cpu fan companies, but Noctua treats their customers better than any company. This kind of calming , straight forward build guides shows how much they care about their customers. They always give so much details and helpful insides.
I'm really happy to find yet another option to lessen the noise on a PC system. I love that some in-depth explanation was given in regards to each component. I'm glad the gentleman talked about how the glass side panel was just for show, and that the aluminum side panel is best. Science!

I just started ordering components for my new passive PC, and it actually hadn't even occurred to me to look at RUclips. I decided to go with an Intel Core i5-12600T CPU (35-74 W TDP) and the Noctua NH-P1 cooler, and those will go on a Gigabyte Z690 UD AX DDR5 (big heatsinks), powered by a Seasonic PX-500 fanless power supply. I intend to use the integrated Intel UHD 770 GPU, and a Thermaltake Core P3 open case.

That's a beast right there, and quite impressive performance for a passive cooler. That's also a slick looking case I didn't know about, so thanks for that tip.
I’ve bought one, can’t wait for it to arrive after seeing this video! I’m currently running a NH-D15S but although that’s an excellent cooler, it has a pretty closed off fin stack so it needs an active fan on it to move the air. With the NH-P1 I hope the case fans that are right overhead will be sufficient and thus make my system even more quiet than it already is.
@@greatwavefan397 I ran the NH-D15S fanless with different configurations (orientations/case fans), but the fin stack is just too dense to effectively draw the air out just using case fans. I've since tested with the NH-P1 and that makes a huge difference, it works really well with just case fans. It's an excellent, quiet solution if you keep the CPU power consumption at sane levels.
No joke, everything what Noctua does, is perfect and looks so sexy. I already have the NH-U12A CPU cooler, but now I also want this one. 😁 Grüße aus Wien. ✌🏽
Its quite easy to make a quiet "passive" pc nowdays.... Get big ass passive cooler, get ssd instead of hdd and you cant afford GPU so BOOM. Job well done... kinda.
If someone is considering going 100% fanless also consider coil-whine. In my experience a little fan noise is much more pleasant than coil-whine, which you will hear from the graphics card or PSU if there's no fan to cover it. So that's also something to keep in mind when chosing a fanless PSU.
Well done product introduction. Clear, detailed enough with good points on addressing thermal performance limits. The fan add on option is great but I'd like to see these fans produced in the black/grey color option that Noctua recently introduced last year.
Semi passive is the way to go! Full passive is great and all when it works, expensive when it isn't. Semi passive has all the advantages of full passive, minus the risks. I first found out about semi passive cooling in the mid 2,000s after pulling a passively cooled videocard out of a machine and burning my hand in the process 🤣 Within an hour, it had a small 12v fan screwed directly into the heatsink...
Except when you can't tolerate any noise at all. For me, I'm setting up a home studio DAW. Any noise at the wrong moment might ruin a take, so it has to be fully fanless. (edit: typo)
@@AnWe79 you can also have the pc in another room and have long cables. But ye, in the end audio recording are a niche of a niche market. Noctua was hyping this as a game changer but it's far from it, just a gimmick
@@grasthube Yep, my use case is a one room guest cabin that will double as a studio, so the other "room" would have to be either the toilet, a cabinet, or outside. None of those seem tempting TBH.
@@AnWe79 yeah that's a fair call, in that situation then yeah you would only want fans to come on when absolutely necessary. Example, if a CPU is good for 90c according to the manufacturer and with given cooling being ample for keeping things 60-70c in most situations, I'd set the fans to come on at about 30% at 80c, but only to protect the equipment from overheating and potentially causing a loss of work.
when building a truly silent pc, another thing to keep in mind would be the small fans on x570 motherboards, as well as on some others. Considering that, when making a silent pc, the cooler is passive, thus, a B550 board will work just as well as an x570 as it's highly likely the CPU will not be overclocked. VRMs are generally decent on those boards, too.
I feel like Matt from DIYPerks could have narrated this video... This is SO pleasing to see, alas my processor can't run fanless according to the compatibility list, anyway what an amazing product. Maybe undervolting/limiting the base clock could work without too much performances impact... What a great new toy :D
I’ve been using Noctua fans since my first PC build back in 2013. Would love to see Noctua start making their own cases. Who remembers when the monitor sat on the actual PC?
Nicely Done. Hopefully one day I can find the components that work as well passively, as when active, and afford them as well of course. So I can make an almost silent sleek build like this.
I thought this video was fascinating, even though I am not really sure I would go for a passive PC myself. Using a Noctua NH-D15 with two fans at full speed to run an 11700K at 5GHz all-core is such a nice performance boost, and they're not even loud fans really. I mean, you can even see in the video how much the performance picks up when he adds just one fan. I like seeing how much can be done with passive cooling and how powerful it really is, but at the end of the day when a few fans can drop temperatures that much... it's hard to say no to that. Especially if you have an air conditioner or something running in the background, you won't even hear the fans. I guess it would be a bigger deal for people who are doing music production or something where noise could interefere.
Great video! So much passion went into it, it's palpable. Just like your products. I have 2 questions that I'm wondering a lot about these builds: 1) mount the fun to push air into the case, or mount it to pull it outwards - which one is better? 2) for pulling air outwards, would you rather place it on the CPU cooler, or, if close to the CPU cooler, attached to the case? I understand your answers can't be generalized to all configurations, but I'm sure that e.g. for the particular case above, you have benchmarked it, and I'd love to know!
Thank you for your kind feedback! If you add a fan, we would recommend adding it either as a top exhaust case fan or sitting on the cooler blowing towards. The effect will be very similar, but the top exhaust case fan position has the advantage that it doesn't reduce natural convection through the cooler, which can cost a few Watt.
Sure...you pay a premium price for Noctua coolers, are you getting your monies worth with your investment? As a Noctua customer I can say a solid YES. I've had my NH-D14 for quite some time, it's graced such CPUs as a i7 950, a i7 7700K, a Ryzen 9 3900X and a Ryzen 9 5950X...yes they supplied the AM4 kit for the D14 but the cooler and even the bracket kit were packaged beautifully and contained excellent instructions. I also own a NH-U14S for a secondary system with the above mentioned 3900X. So here we have Noctua's new passive cooler, a stout piece of metal designed to work without a fan, sure they can push the hard sell but no...the give us a soft spoken gentleman explaining what this new cooler will do and what it'll work with. No massive overdone hype but a classy informative video and links to supporting documentation to go with the new cooler. This is the quality from a company that you pay a little extra for when it comes to the products. It's things like this that will make the decision to buy Noctua real easy in the future...and yes I sense more of their products in my house soon.
Just to save someone some time going through the case list, Thermaltake, SilentiumPC, Phanteks, Lian LI, Jonsbo, Fractal Design, Cougar, Corsair and Cooler Master were the only ones with viable cases for passive cooling. Within that list, Thermaltake, Lian Li, Jonsbo, Cougar, Corsair and Cooler Master were the only ones with cases that received the highest score of three stars.
Omg, I hope this product will be available in Indonesia. I always love noctua fan and cpu cooler. I don’t know why, but the design and sound always calming and cool to look at… I love the sweater, the color is so Noctua
I really love the Noctua fans in my case and they adequately cool my 5800x very well! thanks Noctua! it was quite interesting to see the release of the P1!
Thanks for sharing... Can you please tell what is the highest safe temp for PCH? With 22c ambient room, mine reaches 50c with 2 intake at 650rpm if I turn them off PCH reaches 69 on ZZEW B6 14L mini itx case, Gigabyte Aorus Z690i lite d4 (with 2 gen4 NVME SSD and 2 sata 2.5 ssds, i5-12400+Thermalright SI-100 210TDP rated 31-47c and 56c highest with no fans; GPU is a HP AMD RX5500 oem replaced heatsink with a Raijintek Morpheus 2 Core no fans 32-40c normal use and 57c gaming) is 69c or even 70-75c degrees ok for PCH? Thanks before hand!
just wondering, would vertically mounting the gpu would improve thermals for both the cpu and gpu since the gpu's heatsink is allowed to cool and the pcb isnt blocking natural convection for both the cpu and gpu?
Loved this build, too bad there are no high end fanless GPUs such as 3080/6800xt. Although, my current GPU has a fanless mode when idle, but when in high use it releases too much heat, so it will make a passive build impossible. I think with this cooler, Noctua becomes the default option when doing a passive build.
I can think of a usecase in a industrial environment where a plasma cutter is producing huge amounts of dust that gets everywhere, means every fan will push possibly conductive dust into the case. Is it okay if the top side is closed and only front and back have a vent mesh when using a fully passive system? Btw. His voice is marvelous and perfectly resembles what I expect of the noctua brand. Never let him go.
Yes, the side panel can be closed but preferably the vents should be at the bottom and at the top of the case for best natural convection. See our list of recommended cases here: ncc.noctua.at/s/nh-p1-case-recommendations Thank you for your kind feedback, we agree with you and will never let Dan go! ;)
Noctua, i was thinking of buying one of those covers for my d15 cooler, but i couldnt find the brown and tan one, how is possible that you dont made one, but you actually made every other color but not that?
i think that the graphics card's horizontal position can slow down the air convection to some degrees. It could have been smoother if it were more vertical
This is neat but I think passive GPU cooling is much more useful since that's where the majority of the noise is going to come from in a gaming PC, or any PC that makes noise. There's really no good reason for passive CPU or case cooling as you can just use very quiet fans at a low enough speed that they end up silent.
Great product, I'm very much looking forward to using it in an HTPC build! I have a question, if using this cooler with the Gigabyte B550M AORUS Pro-P AM4 Micro-ATX Motherboard, would I be able to install the NH-P1 rotated 90 degrees, aligning the fins as front-to-back of the case, in order to maximize the effectiveness of the airflow from the front case intake fans and rear case outtake fan? Thanks, All the best!
I'm running a ryzen 5600g, its undervolted using PBO, my previous cooler was a deepcool gamer storm lucifer v2 running passively, I just brought this NH-P1 along with a better PC case that has vents in the top (previously I just left one side off the case) before I swapped everything over I ran a test where I pegged all cores at 100% for 20 minutes and it got to 79 degrees, then I swapped over to the new case and installed the NH-P1 and ran the test again, after 20 minutes with all cores at 100% it was only at 64 degrees, so I left it running for longer, it eventually got to 66 degrees where it stayed for ages, after 40 minutes it was still at 66 degrees so I ran an iGPU benchmark while the CPU was still at 100%, the highest it got to was 69 degrees, then it dropped back down to 68 degrees, after about 6 or 7 minutes I stopped the iGPU test and the temps dropped down to 67 degrees, after 50 minutes the temps hadn't changed so I stopped the test. I have to say I'm pretty impressed, its a big upgrade over the deepcool, 15 degrees cooler after the same time period is very impressive, and for the temps to still be only 67 degrees after 50 minutes of all cores running maxed out at 100% and the iGPU running anywhere between 50% to 100% for 6 or 7 minutes in a completely passive case is very good if you ask me, for reference the room was cool, probably around 20 degrees, and at idle the CPU jumps between 28 and 30 degrees.
Thanks for your great feedback, it means a lot to us and we're glad to hear that you have been so satisfied with the cooler. If you'd like to help spreading the word, please consider leaving a customer review where you bought it, we'd greatly appreciate it!
@Noctua_at excuse me, did you test any "compatible" processors at max working temperature for reasonable amount of time (close to guarantied by manufacturer lifetime) in passive build?
Do you know if the people designing fans at Noctua have any plans (or even concepts) for fans larger than 200mm, or any plans for more 200mm models? I'm not a professional yet, but i'm getting an engineering degree currently, and it really seems like larger fans, such as 200×200×60mm, have much better throughput-to-noise-ratio than smaller fans. It now occurred to me that whoever at Noctua reads this probably can't reveal any information about upcoming designs.... Well, whatever the situation may be, bring up the idea with product designers if you have any power to do so.
We don't have plans for fans larger than 200mm at this stage as there aren't any PC cases that could fit even larger fans. From a technical perspective, it is correct that larger sizes make it possible to achieve better airflow to noise ratios, but maintaining good pressure performance and even blade loading is a big challenge the larger you go.
This is how a corporate tutorial should me made. No corny jokes, no hype, just information presented in a classy and easy-to-understand way.

I understand your answers can't be generalized to all configurations, but I'm sure that e.g. for the particular case above, you have benchmarked it, and I'd love to know!
Thank you for your kind feedback! If you add a fan, we would recommend adding it either as a top exhaust case fan or sitting on the cooler blowing towards. The effect will be very similar, but the top exhaust case fan position has the advantage that it doesn't reduce natural convection through the cooler, which can cost a few Watt.
Can't wait for Optimum Tech and Hardware Canucks video comes out
Sure...you pay a premium price for Noctua coolers, are you getting your monies worth with your investment? As a Noctua customer I can say a solid YES. I've had my NH-D14 for quite some time, it's graced such CPUs as a i7 950, a i7 7700K, a Ryzen 9 3900X and a Ryzen 9 5950X...yes they supplied the AM4 kit for the D14 but the cooler and even the bracket kit were packaged beautifully and contained excellent instructions. I also own a NH-U14S for a secondary system with the above mentioned 3900X.
So here we have Noctua's new passive cooler, a stout piece of metal designed to work without a fan, sure they can push the hard sell but no...the give us a soft spoken gentleman explaining what this new cooler will do and what it'll work with. No massive overdone hype but a classy informative video and links to supporting documentation to go with the new cooler. This is the quality from a company that you pay a little extra for when it comes to the products. It's things like this that will make the decision to buy Noctua real easy in the future...and yes I sense more of their products in my house soon.
ordered an NH-P1 on Amazon as soon as I saw the news today :D
This video is just so perfect, classy.
From this moment forward you'll be know as Noctua's ASMR guy 😎
WOW his voice, his voice is amazing, so soft and gentle, just like Noctua.
I'm disappointing that this won't work for my build, but at the same time very relaxed from the video
this is impressively clean in every way
I need to have that Noctua hoodie, looks like quality, especially those extra thick pull strings.
Glad you like them, they are available here: noctua.at/en/np-h1-brown/buy
Seems like things are trying to go full circle, passive cooling was what we had when I was younger.
Just to save someone some time going through the case list, Thermaltake, SilentiumPC, Phanteks, Lian LI, Jonsbo, Fractal Design, Cougar, Corsair and Cooler Master were the only ones with viable cases for passive cooling.
Within that list, Thermaltake, Lian Li, Jonsbo, Cougar, Corsair and Cooler Master were the only ones with cases that received the highest score of three stars.
Now this is what i call a guide.
Omg, I hope this product will be available in Indonesia. I always love noctua fan and cpu cooler.
I don’t know why, but the design and sound always calming and cool to look at…
I love the sweater, the color is so Noctua
That case in the video looks nice.
I really love the Noctua fans in my case and they adequately cool my 5800x very well! thanks Noctua! it was quite interesting to see the release of the P1!
I think passive PC's should be the future. Also solving coil whine, my ears are so sensitive i hate it!
I have 13 fans from noctua and one heatsink. My comp. Is brown and tan and it reminds me of louis vuitton.
Great! Many thnaks. It inspires me to dig in this direction
They had to choose the most chill mofo to present this chill cooler.
Will this heatsink fit my motherboard Z690i Aorus Ultra? This is mini-itx motherboard, DDR 5. Thanks
Yes: ncc.noctua.at/motherboards/model/Z690I-AORUS-ULTRA-motherboard-5392
Now what am I supposed to do with my 6 NF-A12x25? And more importantly, when are you releasing the A12x25 in black so I can buy 6 more?
Use the adapters that reduce the speed and that is all
Strap them all to your new P1 😂
Thanks for sharing... Can you please tell what is the highest safe temp for PCH?
With 22c ambient room, mine reaches 50c with 2 intake at 650rpm if I turn them off PCH reaches 69 on ZZEW B6 14L mini itx case, Gigabyte Aorus Z690i lite d4 (with 2 gen4 NVME SSD and 2 sata 2.5 ssds, i5-12400+Thermalright SI-100 210TDP rated 31-47c and 56c highest with no fans; GPU is a HP AMD RX5500 oem replaced heatsink with a Raijintek Morpheus 2 Core no fans 32-40c normal use and 57c gaming) is 69c or even 70-75c degrees ok for PCH? Thanks before hand!
These temperatures are entirely fine, the PCH on Z690 can run safely at up to 100°C.
@@NoctuaVideos thanks, much appreciated!!!
Really like the style of the parts they used. Noctua know best
I always wanted a 100% passive cooled pc :D
just wondering, would vertically mounting the gpu would improve thermals for both the cpu and gpu since the gpu's heatsink is allowed to cool and the pcb isnt blocking natural convection for both the cpu and gpu?
Yes, definitely! This is something we recommend in our setup guidelines: noctua.at/en/nh-p1-setup-guidelines
A little tip from me: get a 10900T ES (QTB0) from aliexpress. Relatively cheap 10C/20T, only 35 watts and boosts to 4 GHz
Noctua coming through with the 15 minute long pc building guide while they sell only coolers...
The way he presented the Video.. like an ASMR VIdeo ;) But all in all its a great thing to be able to cool your system passively
Loved this build, too bad there are no high end fanless GPUs such as 3080/6800xt. Although, my current GPU has a fanless mode when idle, but when in high use it releases too much heat, so it will make a passive build impossible. I think with this cooler, Noctua becomes the default option when doing a passive build.
I can think of a usecase in a industrial environment where a plasma cutter is producing huge amounts of dust that gets everywhere, means every fan will push possibly conductive dust into the case. Is it okay if the top side is closed and only front and back have a vent mesh when using a fully passive system?
Btw. His voice is marvelous and perfectly resembles what I expect of the noctua brand. Never let him go.
Yes, the side panel can be closed but preferably the vents should be at the bottom and at the top of the case for best natural convection. See our list of recommended cases here: ncc.noctua.at/s/nh-p1-case-recommendations
Thank you for your kind feedback, we agree with you and will never let Dan go! ;)
His voice should be the acoustic for all Noctua fans.
I bought this cooler and mounted it in a case with 9 fans! 3950x stays at room temp!
That hoodie is neat!
Thanks, they are currently out of stock but will be back in stock shortly: noctua.at/en/np-h1-brown/buy
This guy made this build guide so spiritual :D I'm at peace with the universe after watching this :D
This would be great for a streaming pc
Really chill video
What a wonderful video. Are there any more with this guy?
Noctua, i was thinking of buying one of those covers for my d15 cooler, but i couldnt find the brown and tan one, how is possible that you dont made one, but you actually made every other color but not that?
i think that the graphics card's horizontal position can slow down the air convection to some degrees. It could have been smoother if it were more vertical
This is neat but I think passive GPU cooling is much more useful since that's where the majority of the noise is going to come from in a gaming PC, or any PC that makes noise. There's really no good reason for passive CPU or case cooling as you can just use very quiet fans at a low enough speed that they end up silent.
1.5x is makes this video way more enjoyable :)
Great product, I'm very much looking forward to using it in an HTPC build!
I have a question, if using this cooler with the Gigabyte B550M AORUS Pro-P AM4 Micro-ATX Motherboard, would I be able to install the NH-P1 rotated 90 degrees, aligning the fins as front-to-back of the case, in order to maximize the effectiveness of the airflow from the front case intake fans and rear case outtake fan?
Thanks,
All the best!
This dude is as smooth as a noctua cooler
I'm running a ryzen 5600g, its undervolted using PBO, my previous cooler was a deepcool gamer storm lucifer v2 running passively, I just brought this NH-P1 along with a better PC case that has vents in the top (previously I just left one side off the case) before I swapped everything over I ran a test where I pegged all cores at 100% for 20 minutes and it got to 79 degrees, then I swapped over to the new case and installed the NH-P1 and ran the test again, after 20 minutes with all cores at 100% it was only at 64 degrees, so I left it running for longer, it eventually got to 66 degrees where it stayed for ages, after 40 minutes it was still at 66 degrees so I ran an iGPU benchmark while the CPU was still at 100%, the highest it got to was 69 degrees, then it dropped back down to 68 degrees, after about 6 or 7 minutes I stopped the iGPU test and the temps dropped down to 67 degrees, after 50 minutes the temps hadn't changed so I stopped the test.
I have to say I'm pretty impressed, its a big upgrade over the deepcool, 15 degrees cooler after the same time period is very impressive, and for the temps to still be only 67 degrees after 50 minutes of all cores running maxed out at 100% and the iGPU running anywhere between 50% to 100% for 6 or 7 minutes in a completely passive case is very good if you ask me, for reference the room was cool, probably around 20 degrees, and at idle the CPU jumps between 28 and 30 degrees.
Thanks for your great feedback, it means a lot to us and we're glad to hear that you have been so satisfied with the cooler. If you'd like to help spreading the word, please consider leaving a customer review where you bought it, we'd greatly appreciate it!
@@NoctuaVideos Will do, thanks
Fantastic, thanks a lot! :)
Real I say my Heart the simplicity I love it
Wonder how it performs if cpu IHS is removed
@Noctua_at excuse me, did you test any "compatible" processors at max working temperature for reasonable amount of time (close to guarantied by manufacturer lifetime) in passive build?
Wow top quality video just like their products!
Do you know if the people designing fans at Noctua have any plans (or even concepts) for fans larger than 200mm, or any plans for more 200mm models? I'm not a professional yet, but i'm getting an engineering degree currently, and it really seems like larger fans, such as 200×200×60mm, have much better throughput-to-noise-ratio than smaller fans.
It now occurred to me that whoever at Noctua reads this probably can't reveal any information about upcoming designs....
Well, whatever the situation may be, bring up the idea with product designers if you have any power to do so.
We don't have plans for fans larger than 200mm at this stage as there aren't any PC cases that could fit even larger fans. From a technical perspective, it is correct that larger sizes make it possible to achieve better airflow to noise ratios, but maintaining good pressure performance and even blade loading is a big challenge the larger you go.
