    You cant go wrong with Noctua. I bought this when I converted my old PC into a NAS and the original water cooler was end of life after 8 years! The Noctua seems to keep the temps about the same as the water cooler did. I have a big fan controller on the front and I can see the temps all the time so I know if its getting hot, which it does not. My ambient temps are around 75 max and the CPU is always below 30C, no O/C and running freenas OS. Fan is quiet but not completely silent, gets only a little louder when the fan controller kicks it into high. Still not bad. The case fans are louder.

    Keeps my CPU around the Mid 40s under normal load and mid 60s while gaming. its pretty large so I had to remove the top case fan from the NZXT H510 Elite. Gets the job done though. I ended up buying Notcuas 140mm chromaxx fan to get rid of that ugly brown color.

    This is a poorly designed product that does not fit standard motherboard form factors.

    Awesome CPU cooler!! I just built a new rig with an i5-8600k and this cooler keeps it nice and cool at 28C idle / 65C MAX under full load even OC at 4.7 GHz on all 6 cores. Installation was by far the easiest Ive ever done. Yeah its big, no its HUGE, but you cant complain about the performance. Buy it and you wont regret it. Love the fact that even on silent mode, this thing still moves a lot of air and keeps temps under control and best of all, you can barely hear it. Noctua hit it out of the park with this one.

    This is the only brand of cooler that i would even bother to install in my new asus gaming tower.

    Well made. Cools so much better then the stock RGB 4 heatpipe cooler. Extremely quiet! 14cm included fan makes zero noise even at 1500 rpm on an open Lian li test bench. Amazing !!

    Not good enough for a i9 13900K, as the temperature spike uncomfortably high and the fans keep on spinning too fast with every other effort by the CPU, but very compact and probably great with processors that produce less heat. Go for the NH-D15 if you have a power hungry 13th gen top processor, those are up to the task in a well ventilated case.

    i Love the innovation of the mount style,. I mounted the noctua fan underneath and a 14 inch rgb fan on top , no problems dissapating the 125w tdp of the overclocked i9 with the bonus of dragging fresh air over the VRMs and ram

Successor to the award-winning NH-C14, the NH-C14S is an elite class top-flow CPU cooler that is extremely efficient, highly compatible and remarkably adjustable. Thanks to its deeper fin stack and the renowned NF-A14 PWM fan, the single fan NH-C14S provides similar quiet cooling performance to its dual fan predecessor while being even more versatile: With the fan installed on top of the fins, the cooler is compatible with RAM modules of up to 70mm height. With the fan installed underneath the fins, the total height of the cooler is only 115mm, making it suitable for use in many HTPC cases. At the same time, the new offset layout allows it to clear the top PCIe slot on most µATX and ATX motherboards. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-C14S is a premium quality top-flow solution for the highest demands.

Low Profile Mode

Run with the NF-A14 fan installed underneath the fin stack, the NH-C14S stands only 115mm tall, which is much lower than tower coolers with 140mm or 120mm fans and allows it to fit many desktop style or HTPC cases.

High Clearance Mode

Run with the NF-A14 fan installed on top, the NH-C14S provides extended clearance underneath the fin stack. This way, it is fully compatible with chipset coolers and RAM modules with heat-spreaders of up to 70mm height.

NF-A14 140mm premium fan

Featuring sophisticated aerodynamic optimisations such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A14 is renowned to be among the best quiet 140mm fans on the market. Combined with the deeper fin stack of the NH-C14S, it allows the cooler to achieve similar performance levels as its dual fan predecessor despite only using a single NF-A14.

NT-H1 thermal compound

Noctua’s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability. Chosen again and again by overclockers and enthusiast users worldwide, it has established itself as a benchmark for premium-quality thermal compounds.

C-Type top-flow design

The c-type top-flow design of the NH-C14S not only allows for superb quiet cooling performance while maintaining a much lower profile than today"s 140mm tower-style coolers but also ensures excellent airflow over RAM modules and near-socket motherboard components.
