I don't have the 212, I have just read some very good reviews. I have the Nh-D14. I get anywhere from 18 to 30 FPS (locked) with the NGX depending on weather, scenery, AI etc. Basically it flies smooth with very occasional stutter. Par for the course in FSX I think.Mark.

NH-D14 does work in 1155. It uses the same mounting bracket as 1156I already recomended this one in your other threadhttp://www.ebuyer.com/179179-exdisplay-zalman-cnps10x-extreme-ultra-quiet-socket-1156-1366-775-am3-am2-ebr1-cnps10x-extreme

The NH-D14 is one of the best, do you have a full tower, can you spend $89.00? if one of the answer is no forget about the NH-D14.
