> 24 hourIm using this cooler in a 4U Intel workstation case with an LGA2066 motherboard and W-2275 CPU (rated 165W TDP).

> 24 hourcooler très silencieux et efficace, possibilité de rajouter une autre fan..un peu volumineux par contre donc faire attention si vous avez beaucoup de RAM ou une grosse carte graphique

> 24 hourKeeps 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.

> 24 hourVery quiet, inaudible from more than 2 feet at idle, and temps are very low. Used in HTPC with fan blowing up from below heatsink, the draft probably helps cool the memory because the fan is right above it.

> 24 hourI built a system around this (and the case), aiming for a quiet PC and got exactly that. I followed the directions exactly. It is not only quiet, but effective. I didnt test the stock cooler for my Ryzen 5600x cpu, but even lacking that comparison, I can say this exceeded expectations. I would buy again.

> 24 hourThis is a great cooler especially for the Cooler Master NR200 case. I have it mounted on a Asrock H470 ITX motherboard for an intel core i7 10700. the motherboard allows me to run the CPU at 125 W vs the stock intel 65 W. Noctua has this cooler rated for 205 W max but if you add a second fan in a push pull config, this will equal that of a NH-U12A or beat it just slightly. I have tested this cooler with both single and dual fans running handbrake; my CPU lives between 65 C and 70 C with a i7 running at 100% load at 125 W in single fan mode. with no bottom fan, I have easy access to the motherboard and ram. overall excellent air cooler. I was unsure if this could handle the task so I ordered an AIO with 280 mm radiator. that AIO has been return never being used because the NH-C14S is excellent at its job.

> 24 houri 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

> 24 hourBest CPU air cooler Ive used, hands down. I ended up replacing the fan with Noctaus Industrial 140mm PWM fan just for the black vs brown but the included fan is excellent if youre ok with Noctua fleshy-beige (Im not haha)
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 ModeRun 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 ModeRun 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 fanFeaturing 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 compoundNoctua’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.
