Dear customer,
Congratulations on choosing the Noctua NH-L12. This smaller size cooler
packs all essential technologies of our award-winning high-end models
into a highly compact package in order to give you the best possible quiet
cooling experience for HTPCs and small form factor builds. I’m confident
that you will be able to sense some of the research, attention and care
we’ve put into making this product. Enjoy your NH-L12!
Yours sincerely,
Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO

This manual will guide you through the installation process of the
SecuFirm2™ mounting system step by step. Prior to installing the
cooler, please consult the compatibility list on our website (www.noc-
tua.at/compatibility) and verify that the cooler is fully compatible with
your motherboard. Should you encounter any difficulties, please check
the FAQs on our website (www.noctua.at/faqs) and don’t hesitate to
contact our support team at . Noctua cannot be held support@noctua.at
responsible for any damage or losses caused by compatibility issues.

4x NM-IBT2
Bolts
Then put the NM-IMB2 mounting-bars onto the bolts.
Caution: Choose the alignment of the mounting bars according to the
desired final orientation of the cooler:
Caution: Make sure
that the curved sides of
the mounting bars are
pointing outwards.
Fix the mounting bars using the NM-ITS1 thumbscrews.
Caution: Gently tighten the screws until they stop, but don’t use excessive force.
Applying thermal paste
If there are residual traces of thermal paste or thermal pads on your CPU,
please clean them off first. Then press a small drop (4-5mm diameter) of
NT-H1 onto the centre of the heatspreader.
Caution: Applying too much thermal paste will lower the heat conductivity
and cooling performance!

Mounting-Bars
Fastening the heatsink to the CPU
Caution: Tighten the screws until they stop.
Caution: Please first take off the protection cover at the bottom side of the
heatsink and remove the rubber support bar between the bottom fan and
the base of the heatsink!
Take off the top fan. Then put the heatsink onto the CPU and screw it to
the screw threads of the mounting bars. Note that you can reach through
the blades of the lower fan using the supplied screw driver. There is thus
no need to take off the lower fan for installation.
Even with high-grade products and strict quality control, the possibility of
defects cannot be eliminated entirely. Therefore, we aim at providing the
highest possible level of reliability and convenience by offering a warranty
period of 6 years and direct, fast and straightforward RMA service.
Should you encounter any problems with your NH-L12, please don’t
hesitate to contact our support team (support@noctua.at).

Warranty, Support and FAQs
The NH-L12 can be used with both fans for maximum performance or with
the NF-B9 fan only in order to reduce the total height to 66mm:
If you want to use both fans, put the NF-F12 fan back on. If you don’t
run the NF-F12 on the CPU cooler, you can use the supplied fan screws or
silicone Vibration-Compensators to install it inside your case.
Connect the fan(s) to the mainboard. Use the supplied NA-YC1 y-split
cable to connect both fans to one fan header.
Depending on your CPU and the temperature inside the case, you may
interconnect the supplied NA-RC6 and NA-RC7 Low-Noise Adapters
(L.N.A.) in order to further reduce the fans operating noise. Use the NA-
RC6 for the NF-F12 120mm fan and the NA-RC7 for the NF-B9 92mm fan.
Caution: Never use one adaptor for both fans by putting it before the
y-split cable.
Caution: When using the L.N.A., check the temperature of your CPU using
appropriate software (e.g. the respective applications of your mainboard
manufacturer), in order to evade automatic throttling of the CPU due to the
increased temperature. If the cooling performance is insufficient, please
increase case ventilation or remove the L.N.A.

Installation Manual | LGA1366/115x/775
Caution: On LGA115x, please make sure that the two cuts in the supplied
backplate align with the screws of the mainboard’s stock backplate.
Installing the mounting bars
First put the plastic spacers onto the bolts, then add the mounting bars.
Caution: Please verify that all four NM-IBT1 bolts are put into the
appropriate holes and fully pushed in.
For use on LGA1366 and LGA115x mainboards, please remove the rubber
inlay. Make sure that the rubber inlay is in place for LGA775.
LGA1366 & LGA115x
Attaching the backplate
Place the backplate on the rear side of the mainboard so that the bolts
stick through the mounting holes.
First put the four NM-IBT1 bolts into the holes appropriate for your main-
board’s CPU socket.
Caution: Make sure to use NM-IBT1 and not NM-IBT3!
LGA775
Setting up the backplate
Removing the mainboard
In case you want to use the cooler on an assembled system, you first have
to remove the mainboard from the case in order to be able to install the
supplied backplate.
Caution: On LGA1366 and LGA115x, the supplied backplate will install
over the mainboard’s stock backplate, so the mainboard’s stock backplate
must not be taken off.
Caution: Some Mini-ITX mainboards have larger components (such as
capacitors or I/O Chips) on the rear side that would make contact with
the NM-IBP1 backplate. As there is a risk of damaging the mainboard
when the backplate presses onto these components, please use the
supplied NM-IBT3 bolts instead of the NM-IBP1 backplate and NM-IBT1
bolts when installing the NH-L12 on mainboards with larger components
on the rear side. Proceed with Step 4 after inserting the NM-IBT3 bolts
as shown below. If in doubt, please consult the compatibility list oF
www.noctua.at/compatibility or contact our support team!
