    Depends on a lot of factors, but the d15 will obviously perform better, though the nhu12s should be decent for a 9700k, first overclock with the nhu12s and check temps first.

    There is no way of giving you any definite numbers, mate. It depends on e.g. your case, the fan-configuration in your case and so on. All that can be said is that NH-D15 is the top-of-the-line air-cooler and it will be better.

    Are you looking at the classic Noctua colours or the Chromax Black series?

     

    In the US at least, the U12s Chromax Black isn't even in stock, so you might as well get the D15. If you mean classic Noctua, the D15 is $90 and the U12s if $60, I'd probably get the latter. The D15 is better but it's not 50% better, it does cost 50% more though.
