The low-profile CPU cooler Noctua NH-L12 is designed for application in desktop and HTPC cabinets. It comes with a pair of fans as standard, but removing the upper fan can also be adapted for extremely cramped installations. Its advantage is also support for installation without the need to mount a standalone backplate on the Mini ITX platform, where its setting is often problematic. A premium thermal conductive paste is also included in the package, which will make the cooling process more efficient. This cooler is compatible with Ivy Bridge processors.
