Cooler Silverstone NT06-PRO Processor Cooler 12 cm

The Silverstone NT06-PRO is a compact 120 mm processor cooler designed for efficient heat dissipation in small- to mid-size PC builds. It features a grey heatsink assembly with six soldered 6 mm copper heat pipes, a copper base and aluminum fins, and includes a compact 120 mm PWM fan that balances airflow and low noise. The cooler is compatible with a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets and is rated for a TDP of 95 W.

Advantages

Six soldered heat pipes and a copper base combined with aluminum fins deliver high thermal conduction efficiency. The included 120 mm PWM fan provides forced-air cooling with an emphasis on low noise while maintaining effective airflow. The heatsink and fan mounting have been optimized for improved air pressure and installation stability, making the unit suitable for constrained spaces without sacrificing cooling performance.

Suitable for

• Compact desktop PCs and HTPCs where height or space is limited
• Systems requiring a quiet cooler with moderate TDP support (up to 95 W)
• Upgrades from stock coolers on Intel and AMD mainstream platforms

How to use

Install the NT06-PRO on a compatible motherboard following standard CPU cooler installation steps: apply a thin, even layer of thermal paste to the CPU heatspreader, align the cooler over the CPU socket and secure it using the provided mounting hardware for your socket type. Connect the fan's PWM cable to the CPU fan header on the motherboard to allow automatic speed control. Ensure adequate case airflow and avoid obstructing the fan intake or exhaust paths.

Recommendations

For best results, use the NT06-PRO in systems with case airflow that provides fresh intake air across the heatsink. Monitor CPU temperatures after installation and, if necessary, adjust fan curve settings in the motherboard BIOS to balance noise and cooling performance. Confirm compatibility with your case and motherboard clearance before installation.
