> 3 dayVery good fans that keep my computer below 65 degrees under load. They are also very quiet, can barely tell they are there.

> 3 dayPretty much the same as a normal A14 performance wise. Comes with a 4 pin extender which makes the overall length of the cord the same as a usual fan. I suppose the actual connector from the fan is that short so you can use their chromax extenders to change the color of your cords but it just causes a big fan connector to get in the way of screwing in your fan. I had to mount these a little different because the fan connector was preventing me from running a screw through it.

> 3 dayMy RGB case fans are 3 years old, although still works fine, but I decided to replace them with these Noctua fans. Out of the box, these fans dont feel cheap at all, because literally they are not cheap. Installation/replacement was quick and easy, I decided to use the white rubber vibration absorber for a clean black and white look. The first time I turned the PC on with these fans, I have to look very closely because I thought they werent running, they are very silent. It feels a little awkward for me now because before I can hear my PC fans spinning while playing games, but not with Noctua. Another thing I noticed is that my system temperature is around 4 degrees lower than before and I didnt even change the fan curve. These fans are very good at pushing the air in and out of the case. This is the first time I used Noctua fans for my case, and I cant look back, this is the most quiet build I have. Highly recommendable fans if you dont like RGB.

> 3 dayIm using it with a Noctua speed reducing resistor and its almost completely silent, yet moves a ton of air. Ive got it cooling a Yamaha receiver that is prone to overheating and likes to shut-down when it gets too hot. No thermal shutdowns since adding the fan, and its so quiet that it cant be heard just a few feet away. The included rubber mounts allow me to just set it on the receiver and it doesnt move or vibrate at all. Perfect. Noctua makes the best fans.

> 3 dayThe fans here are awesome, and the fans themselves are worth the cost. The only problem I have here is that they only come with one, very short 4 pin connector. This makes it very difficult to plug in all the fans. The original version (i believe) included y split cables as well as extensions. These would be very useful, and Im disappointing they were not included.

Swappable anti-vibration pads in 6 coloursThe NF-A14 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 4 black, white, red, blue, green and yellow NA-AVP1 anti-vibration pads respectively. By combining the various colours with black or leaving off the pads on one side, the fan can be coordinated with most popular build colour schemes out of the box. Additional NA-SAVP1 sets for outfitting both sides in one colour can be purchased separately. |
SSO2 bearingThe chromax line fans feature the further optimised second generation of Noctua’s renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. |
Flow Acceleration ChannelsThe NF-A14 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. |
Square 140mm frameThe NF-A14"s square 140mm frame with 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) makes it a premium grade replacement for common 140mm case fans and perfect for use on 140mm water cooling radiators, where its square shape will ensure full coverage and best pressure performance. |
Maximising colour choices, Noctua’s chromax.black.swap edition fans can be colour-customised using the included swappable anti-vibration pads as well as optional anti-vibration mounts and cables. This makes them ideal for enthusiasts looking for true premium-grade fans that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes such as all black, black & white or black & red.
