The Noctua NH-L12S is a low profile CPU cooler, mounting a slim 120mm fan that is relatively quiet. That large fan and increased heatsink surface area allow the NH-L12S to handle hotter-running processors than smaller 80 and 92mm low profile coolers can. Because of its large size, though, it overhangs a substantial amount of space around the socket. On compact ITX motherboards this may mean that it has to be installed after everything else is hooked up - and that it may need to be removed in order to access certain things later on.
