Yeah but that screwdriver 4:24 tho
@@LinusTechTips POV: James is living a double life
I'm not surprised that a) noctua has a wild product for cooling CPUs, b) they partnered with Roman and c) everything about this collab being absolutely based
Is this something new? I have 4790k installed this way on older PC, removed IHS, put liquid metal, installed cooler right over it, and I didnt need any fancy overpriced part for it.. Oh.. right.. This is what its about.. More marketing garbage. "Buy our fancy part you dont need at all" lol.
@@NotEvenDeathCanSaveU And what made you think the CPUs of yesteryear would be the same as the CPUs today?
@@NotEvenDeathCanSaveU Easy to say for you. The rest of us might want the peace of mind the spacers and frame might add.
@NotEvenDeathCanSaveYouFromMe Yeah! Who needs seatbelts, airbags, or crumple zone???
Just roll the dice. You probably won't be in an accident, so why have all that overpriced safety equipment?
@@NotEvenDeathCanSaveU Did you even watch the video? You literally don't need ANY of the new stuff they made. You don't need the contact die frame. You don't need to buy the spacer at all if you want to just print it yourself. Everything is just to make sure you don't fuck up.
noctua's long-term support for backward compatability is so refreshing in today's market. They really do seem to put customers first
For sure, i had an older noctua cooler when i got my 6700k, years after that i switched now to a Ryzen 5000 Cpu. Behold, one email, no extra charge and they shipped me the am4 mounting brackets. Some might need to pay shipping if it's farther away, but damn was it a nice experience
I agree i was able use older cpu fan kit on new chipset.
I never even bought product and they gave me an AM4 cooler mount they were just giving them away for free
The right way to build customer loyalty. Not DRM lock-in and subscription garbage.
@@Agent24Electronics I hadn't even bought anything but when they gave me that AM4 cooler mount for free it made me loyal to them as it showed they actual care what people think of them unlike most tech companies be it all the greedy companies Intel,AMD Ngreedia
For all the crap Noctua has gotten over the years for sticking, mostly, to its 70s dad suit aesthetic, you have to admit, seeing those coolers in a tech product instantly brings one word to mind... "Quality"
At this point that color scheme is instantly recognized as noctua brand.. Like green to razer, blue to Intel and red to amd
They also make other colors so if you really don't like it you can go with other options. The chromax black for example is my favorite.
I tried Bequiet products and they are absolutely horrific and nothing but pure junk so Noctua it is. Never had a Noctua product fail. Corsair and Bequiet are a joke in the PC world these days.
@@jamesm568 bequiet are pretty good depending on what you get.
the power supplies are seasonic with their fans slapped on, cases are good, heatsinks are on par with V1 NH D15, the only thing I've had issues are the 80mm fans which have some cogging noise.
@@jamesm568 What issues did you have with both Corsair and BeQuiet? I have Corsair ram, works perfectly. Corsair AIO on a friends pc, works like a charm. BeQuiet fans in my server, no problem. BeQuiet tower cooler smth (a smallish one) in another friend's PC, again perfectly fine. Noctua fans and cooler on another server of mine (Bought all of them from SH), working fine. I don't see a problem with BeQuiet or Corsair, and I do know noctua, they are great.
Noctua is such a great company. I remember when I upgraded my system to AM4 and they just sent me an AM4 upgrade kit for my NH-D15 for free. Have been brand loyal ever since.
arctic does this too, pretty much the only two companies I buy cooling components from these days
Noctua is one of the best companies in the industry. Solid products, good customer service, not greedy. The STL file they will give you for free and make no money if you source parts elsewhere is crazy.
Not gonna buy any other coolers if they keep it that way in the future but they are truly making it hard since I’ve still got my NH-U12S humming along from 2013. Luckily I’ve still got some case fans to be upgraded in the mean time. 😄
They sent me fan clips twice to the non EU country so they said just to not return (because of customs) and give someone else in need. And they spent like month of speaking about this fan clip. And all this after I even lost my PoP.
NH-U14S here. Started with LGA 1155, on AM4 now. Still going strong with the original fan.
Someone would just scan it anyway…
Very mature of them to just give it away though, instead of making it more niche than it already is
really looking forward to regular videos again. First CES and now again a full week of lame trade show videos.. ugh
We need that noctua screwdriver 🤩
ong
i wasn't going to buy it but if they release that color way i'm in.
@@ball5942 They are, they asked on WAN show about what exact layout of colors it should be but Noctua is definitely getting an LTT screwdriver
@@ball5942 same
@@AbrasiveCarl yes! I felt like that’s what he kinda meant on the LTT product placement
I know Noctua products are usually considered ugly, but that Noctua color scheme on the screwdriver looks incredible. Would be awesome if they were released as some type of limited edition collab!
I feel like a screwdriver that color would end up looking pretty gross rather quickly, though.
@@megachonk9440 Yeah, that’s a fair point actually. I’m afraid you’re right, but I’d still buy one just to enjoy it for a week or two lol.
@@AnimalzyNL what if they inverted the colors? brown handle, beige cap?
I dig noctua color actually. Donezo with black and white. So brown and light brown feels nice.
They talked about that on wan show a few weeks ago, they're figuring it out with noctua at the moment. They also showed other potential color schemes
I love that Noctua is releasing free printable mounts to ensure compatability with products of other manufacturers. That's a big move that suggests a dedication to the craft and not just finances, and that has me paying attention. Whoever's driving (or enabling) this vision at the corporate level has their head on straighter than most.
It's definitely financial move, it's just a SMART long-term one instead of the short-term "golden parachute" strategy we're all used to.
@@superslash7254 But its a financial move the proper way, it improves customer's view and loyalty to the brand instead of forcing the customers hand by fing them over
Definitely somone worth keeping in your team, even if it they cost a pretty penny

Recording at a trade show has to be challenging. The last few videos from Computex have had really good audio. The hosts have been clear and easy to hear. Well done!
Shocks me that a lot of people hate Noctua color scheme. I think it looks sooo good. Has a rustic/wood look. Love it. That screwdriver looks so good!
Noctua has black stuff too...
I also kind of like the distinct look but it doesn't match well with color schemes on modern gaming PCs with all the rainbow rgbs etc. They usually stand out a lot since nothing really matches it. But the all Noctua pc Linus built looked really great since those parts actually matched and that's most people's problem. I think the look is fine on its own
Noctua and Be Quiet have some of the best customer support I have ever seen. They are just great companies to buy from, even if you pay a bit more at least you won't have any headache if something happens.
Along with Fractal and SeaSonic (at least for me), I wholeheartedly agree.
Who would have thought, that out of all people, its the german speaking one who can do customer support
@@TheTekknician I'd like to throw EVGA in the mix. I have nothing but praise for their customer service.
Be quiet express shipped me a new cable for my power supply without even asking for a proof of purchase. Fractal design sent me a new fan controller for a case that was 10 years out of warranty with no receipt. Never really had any issues with noctua products, but they gave me an AM4 mounting kit for my D15 with just a picture of the cooler and motherboard.
Sadly my bequiet products tend to be loud. Haven't had to deal with the customer support tho
Linus, I think you're the madman
Linus isn’t just a madman! He’s like the wiener dog of humans 😶

@@XLostGamer bro did you really just get offended by a joke about someone else in a CZcams comment section? 🤡
@@XniKw takes one to know one, who smells it dealt it. 😂
Noctua is so cool.
It's a shame they don't sell them in my country because people are cheap. They tried to bring them, but the price was too high and didn't sell well.
But I'll definitely import their products myself the next time I build a computer hopefully for Christmas next year.
I’m definitely doing this. I constantly buy unnecessary upgrades to gain marginal performance gains, but a ~15C drop is massive.
I'm definitely getting an NH-D15 when my current cooler kicks the bucket, I'll probably never need the monsterous cooling capacity but I love the quietness and want to support them for doing cool stuff like this
Those coolers can easily last 10 plus years, and Noctua will probably still support it when they release another one of theese add ons in 2033 lol
Say never, never. My 4790k homeserver gets cooled with an NH-D15. keeps it cool at all times and is dead silent too. Their fans are just legendary when it comes to their noisr profile. They blend in so well with background noise.
Got an NH-D14 that is still going with daily use.
Same here, I might not use its full potential as my desktop workstation is mostly idle while coding, but I want to support a great company.
Get a U-12A, it's a normal sized tower cooler, almost the same performance as the (old) D15, it's more than enough even for high end processors or reasonable overclocking.
I love how in the middle of the video he showed the screwdriver he liked, rather than the poll winner.
Oh, I didn't realize there was a poll and was really excited when I saw this design...
@@Roger44477 It was just a WAN Show Poll, I asume they are working closely with Noctua to hone in to the ULTIMATE NOCTUA/LTT SCREWDRIVER. It'll "blow" you away (sorry, I had to much Linus this week)
It was Noctua's booth, so maybe he was showing off the one they liked best and had at their booth.
@@megachonk9440 Linus said on the WAN Show that Noctua didn't like that design.
I have a noctua NH-U12 that i bought in 2005. They always sent for me free socket upgrades for every new processor i bought. Now is cooling my 5800x3d. After nearly 20 years for next build i will 101% buy that new NH-D15.
Arctic liquid freezr iii has the offset many years now. And used it to offset the cooler on the 7600x.
Glad to see more have a offset now
Man... direct die was the norm for AMD CPU's "back in the day" so, this isn't all that scary. And now that Intel and AMD are hell bent on pushing their CPU's as far as possible out of the box, it's more and more likely that when I upgrade, I'll be doing this with my next system.
"Back in the day" was pretty scary. Had to use a screwdriver to pry down the retention clip. One slip and you damage the motherboard.
@@asm2750 I'll give you that. Severing some mobo traces was a far more scary proposition than cracking the die.
I worked in an IT retail store during that time.
We had about 6 trays of CPU with cracked dies. I think only about 5% of them got a RMA refund from our supplier.
I was mainly caused by people putting the cooler on the wrong way round since it had a notch milled out of one side.
@@bofh139 Yep, that makes sense. I never cracked a die and I can't tell you how many AMD systems I built back then. Granted, I was a seasoned builder at the point and knew what I was doing. I imagine more people bend pins than cracked the dies back them. Granted, you can replace pins. Cracked die is donezo.
Having zero warranty for a £670 part seems scary to me. In fact it's downright terrifying.
Loving that Noctua is really leaning into the youtube creators now. LTT colabs (cooler and now the screwdriver) and now one with Roman. Damn. Love it. They need more.
Very good explanation @2:20, nailed it. That NHD15, wow, it will be on par with most iao coolers, can't wait for the test!
Offset mounts aren’t really new, Arctic’s had it for a while, but still good to see Noctua come out with something like this
Awesome
please make that noctua themed ltt screwdriver a reality
ikr would be cool af
he showed off three designs last wan show (find the timestamp guy in the comment section) - that one didnt win and to be honest looked ugliest imo and was the one noctua didnt like either
Cooling solutions are always my favorite updates from these events.
I want to see more of all of this, the delidding, the cooler, and the more technical details. great video; over too soon
Great company. glad to hear about thier products always
Gotta say that something I have only recently learned about Noctua that I really love is how much they will support the community, whether its free adapters for their coolers (even if you didn't buy the cooler from them), reverse compatibility going back a quite insane amount of time considering how fast tech has changed(not to mention how much RnD it would take to make sure that it will work on them all), and now this type of stuff where they will supply the files needed to created your own parts. thats some top level stuff right there that I wish more companies would do.
Also, that LTT Noctua screwdriver looks Awesome!!
Every time Linus holds something in one hand and shakes it violently, it strikes fear in my heart.
It's OK, Noctua built it ;)
Drop it like it's hot new tech😂
LOL, funny.
If I took that seriously, I'd have to laugh again and say no it doesn't.
was hoping you'd cover the d15 in details but that delidding mount is cool as well. probably most anticipated booth for me
I appreciate the intkformation on novelty tech. It's a bit hard to digest though, because it's all over the place, going from one interesting bit of kit, and information pretty damn fast.
honestly im surprised it took them this long for an official Noctua Thermal Grizzly collab
also that noctual colored LTT screwdriver tho👀
I live on a really tight budget and have only been able to pick up a Tshirt, water bottle and a lanyard from LTT over the years so whenever I see Linus wearing the style shirt I picked out it brings a smile to my face 😁
Hope you guys are enjoying your time in taipei!
The Liquid Freezer 2 has an offset mount and it works incredibly well.
3:15 - holy shit, that man has barely slept
When that noctua representative said 20 degrees Celsius I was flabbergasted. Then Linus's daily terrible segue brought me back down to earth
down to earth, just like this message from our sponsor!
Arctics liquid cooler uses an offset mount as well. Have one on my 5800x3d and it works very well.
I bought a Noctua cooler a couple of months ago, and as soon as I opened the box and picked up the product, I could feel the quality. I will not hesitate to pay the premium again.
Hey linus! I love your videos! I wonder what CPU's warranty will be destroyed next?🤔
love the noctua screwdriver!
Noctua does great things.
Went with a Coolermaster 212 Evo when I did my build a few years back but now that I can stand a bigger budget, Noctua is top of my list for sure for cooling.
That intro is amazing I love the "20 degrees?" double take
It's great that Linus has more time now since he switched positions so now he can actually be at computex that's pretty awesome
i do feel like noctua should make a pc case with only noctua stuff inside, i just love their colour and i totally loved the noctua built was made here a few months ago
2:17 Seems like the cooling pipe orientation would work far better if rotated 90 degrees, since the heat area over the CPU dies is a wide rectangle. Rotated every cooling pipe would run over part of the dies.
LOVE the Notcua themed LTT Screwdriver!
Linus drop tips never fails to keep us updated with all these videos!
OH man that was so funny. Linus DROP tips? hahahhaa I can't believe no one has ever said that before.
The fact they provided STL files says alot about the company +1
arctic freezer ii's have an offset mount too, it helps alot
Thermal Grizzly and Noctua are both Premium brands I think. TG has so much stuff you don't really need but is nice to have if you are willing to pay the prices. Noctua has some pretty neat things and keep the cooler compatibility, which is great. The collab makes total sense to me, bring awesome Products together, make them plug and play for the enthusiasts and ask your price on it. no more guess for the customer and more business for all the involved manufacturers. I like it.
as someone that STILL uses a nocua NH-C14, the original one rather than the S... noctua have been nothing but an absolute charm to work with as 2 times now ive changed mounting types and they fully shipped a new set of brackets 100% free.
that cooler still rivals the AIOs we got today and man, i honestly couldnt see myself buying a new cooler that isnt a noctua. the worry free nature of not having a pump failure is really nice.
People complain about Noctua’s prices, but what other company will send you a free mounting kit adapter with free shipping for a heat sink you bought almost 20 years ago? I’m willing to pay the Noctua premium because I know I’m going to get quality and that I’m going to be taken care of.
@@guspaz the site i ordered it from doesnt even exist anymore, just to give yah an idea.
relatively, noctua isnt even that much more expensive, paid 89 usd for the cooler when aios at the time were $150+no future support.
though im not married to any brand, theyve been more than gracious and the product quality is really unmatched.
@@KareemFloat I got an NH-D15 from their refurb/second grade store for 40% off and I couldn't even tell what was supposed to be "wrong" with it.
@@juliappoki i live in br. you more than likely didnt have all the receipts, or didnt register your product for warranty.
because every time ive needed it, theyve provided it with no charge or even any further questioning than their support form.
@@KareemFloat Gosh I kind of feel like an idiot now lol. I did have all the receipts, but you're right, I didn't register it for warranty.
Thing is, I actually don't ever expect a company to do something like that, so I didn't give it much thought. I had no idea they did that. Oh well... learning something new every day, now I know what to do in the future. Thanks for the heads-up!
Heads up to Noctua for let Linus holding all their stuff... on a public event... and filming... we know our little butter finger.
I got a NH-D15 SE-AM4 on my AMD 1800x and ASUS C6H and that thing has ran like SMOOTH Butter since DAY 1 ! My STRIX RX480 makes more noise WHEN it winds up,in games,and only 50% of the time. My Power Supply NEVER RUNS during operation,only a check spin on start-up. If you curious,it's a Corsair AX1500i, BAD A$$ and VERY efficient !
But that NEW chunk of SWEET metal when i 1rst saw it,made my heart drop to the floor ! DAM I WANT IT !! That WILL be on my next 7000XTX build ! It was JUST what i was hoping for,then they made it ! THANKS NOCTUA, DE BAUER, & THERMAL GRIZZLY ! This Combo is the SNITZ !! 😎
Arctic already did those AMD offset brackets years ago in the Liquid Freezer II line.
I understand that there’s a device that helps you get rid of the heat spreader, but I’m always worried about cracking the die whenever I even think about attempting it.
I'd be worried even if I got it off. I remember my Athlon XP dying because a corner got chipped. It's extremely easy to do.
a very reasonable worry, even with the devices haha
That noctua screw driver color scheme is gorgeous. How do I buy lol
Anyone else out there remember direct-die heatsink mounting on early Athlon chips in the early 00s?
Absolutely terrifying experience!.
Noctua LTT Screwdriver? Lets goooo.
It actually looks nice and calm, almost gives a warm feeling
After CES2023 materials being pretty dull (not your fault, there wasn't much to show there really) I was afraid this Computex week would be pretty boring. But this event keeps on giving and your materials done out-of-studio are absolutely amazing! Great job guys! (and don't forget to take some rest after coming back to Canada)
Just have to say since the announcement, the jovial and more carefree Linus is showing through more and more in each video again. Astounding what stress does to us, keep up the solid work Linus and Co
The videos are on about a 2 week backlog or so if I recall correctly from an older video, so most of these are probably still from before the announcement. The exception being event videos they want out quicker so this one very well might be fairly new.
I feel like you are referring to it being good that he's no longer CEO. :)
I love Noctua. Three of my five 140mm case fans are Noctua.
I didn't even see the second ad segue coming! 👏👏👏
Noctua is amazing, may they never change
Damn I guess there's finally an AMD equivalent for the thermal grizzly Intel mount
Really like the noctua/ltt screw driver! Nice
Still using mi NH-D14 whit bracket for AM4, try 2 AIO watercooling but stop working before 5 years booth, then going back to NH-D14 but this one NH-D15+ look interesting to upgrade
is it just me, or does he never use the plastic spacers or say where they go. Yet he keeps re-referring to them as the thing that enables this set up to work.
Love the daily content Linus!
From my experience even the slightest crack on the die will cause issues that sometimes are not obvious or instant. I worked at a tech company that refurbished laptops, and correct placement of the heatsink was very important, a slight misalignment and the tiniest crack that's visible only under high magnification could cause issues like random freezes, blue screens, crashes etc. The bad thing is that sometimes this doesn't happen right away after assembling the heatsink, the device may seem that it's functioning. So if you get issues after cleaning your unprotected (without IHS) cpu or gpu and you get normal temperatures, you probably damaged your dies. I definitely recommend the protective frame at all costs, since this is a very expensive damage, and you get no warranty whatsoever.
The real funny thing about "delidded" cpu's is that they were actually officially produced for some time in the early 2000's. AMD came from the lidded K6-3 to the delidded Athlon T-bird and went back to lidded with the Athlon 64. Intel came from the slotted Pentium 2 to the delidded Pentium 3 and back to the lidded Pentium 4.
Bottom line, I actually broke a duron and a t-bird thanks to their mounting system and the delidded cpu's. They were actually RMA'd without any question when the reason was the mounting. Funny how things evolve over time. I guess both Intel and AMD learned their lesson back in the day. But man ... I still recall the first cpu's water blocks were made during that era. Overcloking went crazy because of both delidded cpu's and water blocks. And unlocking the T-bird with a pencil now seems like a joke but it was damn fun back then XD
I look forward to when Linus uploads
We all love noctua, perfection, just perfection
While using my blackout edition LTT Screwdriver last night, I couldn't help but think how cool a Noctua crossover edition would be. Make it happen!
Fun to see some expo content again. Love what Noctua is doing.
I always have too lauch a bit seeing this. this is how I got my first Athlon. and you had to sign that the core was in tact. what Linus is going is what everybody was doing back then.

Warranties were voided, coolers were dropped.
Wow last time I was this early Linus was climbing a tree for his watercooling setup
Last time I was this early he was still the CEO.
Last time I was this early, he was making "cleanest" setup.
I've actually never had a Noctua cooler myself, but I used them in a lot of builds for family and friends, and people I sold PCs to. Never saw any complains, and god, are they silent. Always love to see when companies do cool things.
you and GN are killing it tbh, loving the coverage
also i understood the heat-flux density part, noctua give me a job pls

That Noctua colored screwdriver is a dream come true. I want one so bad 🤤
linus holding a motherboard with one hand while pressing onto the die of the cpu with his finger is something I can't even find words for.
Just here to say that Noctua is indeed incredibly based as a company. I use their coolers in 3 of the 5 computers in my house, and I use their fans in all 5. Glad to see they continue to remain so customer focused!
Man I wish more companies had the customer-first attitude of Noctua, super refreshing to see
The days of risking expensive hardware for a small performance bump are behind me. I’ve had to many problems over the years, and hardware costs double what it used to. I’m happy with what performance I can get with minimal risk.
The offset kit makes sense to me. The direct die spacers not so much to me. If I am delidding, I am also going to custom water cool the CPU.
The point is that with this excellent air cooler you don't strictly need to water cool. It can handle a 300W load so why go through the pain of water cooling when you can slap one of these on and be done?
@@kevinwells9751 What pain of water cooling? Water blocks are easier to install than air cooler because they are significantly lighter not to mention since they have a small footprint clearance and working around the fin stack isn't a thing. Because it is custom installing the radiator and fans are a piece of cake since the tubes aren't connected until you want to connect them. And a pump res combo also is rather easy to install. And soft tubing is cut and tighten down. Even filling a loop is easy unless you're LTT staff forced to use the LTT water bottle for product placement instead of a squeeze bottle. Cost is where you see the huge difference. But If you don't mind voiding the warranty of a $500+ CPU, cost probably isn't important to you.
Watercooling usually is noisier (unless you buy a MORA or something similar) and it also depends on cases, beside that aircooling is just way more reliable.
@@Ahnii You might want to check your data. Almost everyone that has done noise normalized tests will tell you that water cooling is quieter. As for reliability, not sure why that is a consideration for someone that is delidding a CPU and voiding the warranty of the CPU then you're using liquid metal which generally negatively affects the long term reliability of most metals. Like that seems to be the entire point of deliding and using liquid metal sacrifice reliability for the hopes of better temps, quieter operation etc. That being said the MTBF for a d5 is like 50000 hours which is still like 5 years running 24/7 so $70 every 5 years to replace a pump is not the end of the world. And from experience replacing the pump takes maybe half an hour its not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.
@MaheerKibria There are air coolers that usually are quieter than watercoolers, the nh-15 for example definitely is quieter than pretty much all AIOs and many custome loops! And there even is the possibility to use a passive cooler like the monsterlabo beast if you really want to. This has been a topic in the silent pc community for ages. Direct die doesn't mean one has to use liquid metal, there are really good alternatives.
Dont drop it
I love the LTT screwdriewer with Noctua themed colors 👍 Looks great for such an event. 4:12
I used that delid tool on my 7950x and am loving the cooler temps.
Nice that der Bauer is an video from you! I´m a german and watch his videos on his german channel
I didnt know much about noctua, til today, and I respect them, as a company and their products so much, love to see innovation on an already great product
On that same note I recommend anyone getting a LGA 1700 Intel CPU to get a frame to replace the stock one that come with a motherboard, its not guaranteed you'll "need" one but even if you don't its guaranteed to reduced your heat load. Its mandatory (in my opinion) however for anyone with a Z690< motherboard and an unlocked (k) processor; Keep in mind if you have a old Noctua NH D15 cooler, a cheap adapter costing 7-15 bucks is needed with a change to a LGA 1700 motherboard from an older model.
Stoked on the LTTxNoctua screwdriver. I will literally, actually buy one when they become available.
