The Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 processor fan comes with high performanceNT-H1 thermal element, has a full 6 year manufacturer's warranty and is a high quality solution that combines performance, quietness and high compatibility.
CPU cooler (for AMD TR4/TRx4/SP3 socket)
Special AMD Threadripper versionThe NH-U14S TR4-SP3 provides the new AMD TR4 platform with the cooling and acoustic performance for which the NH-U14S is renowned. With a perfect blend of efficiency, silence and compatibility, the NH-U14S TR4-SP3 is the ideal companion for high-end TR4 configurations. With a height of 165mm, the NH-U14S is large and will only fit into the deepest of enclosures. Featuring a swivel installation system, the NH-U14S can be shifted a few millimetres to make it compatible with multi-GPU configurations. |
Reliability, efficiency and silenceThe 140mm NF-A15 fan supplied with the NH-U14S can benefit from automatic PWM speed control via the motherboard. In addition, and to further reduce noise emissions, the maximum speed can be capped at 1200rpm (instead of 1500rpm) by using the Low Noise Adapter (L.N.A.). For those wishing to further improve performance, the addition of a second fan will allow a push/pull configuration to be created. To this end, the NH-U14S is supplied with custom-made anti-vibration mounts that allow the rear fan to be offset by 5mm to improve acoustic comfort in dual fan mode. Noctua SecuFirm2 mounting systems have become the ultimate reference for quality, reliability and ease of installation. In order to guarantee excellent compatibility and optimum flow within the constraints of the case, the SecuFirm2 system for TR4 allows the ventirad to be installed in the traditional way or in a 90° pivot. Noctua's NT-H1 pad offers very low thermal resistance, reliability and ease of application. |

I know Noctua is always quality but what surprised me was the delivery. I ordered the day before at 10am and the package was in my hands the next day at 11:30am.
Mounted on a Supermicro H12SSL motherboard, works great. Great hardware. Cools well a 150W processor (Epyc 7262)
Beware, the fan encroaches on the first two RAM slots on this motherboard. You should use the lowest possible RAM slots or move the fan higher than the heatsink.
The -2 is because of the packaging, which I find excessively blingy.
I've been using this fan to cool a Threadripper 2950x for three months now and it's been great. I was a little bit afraid because the size of the base is so big compared to a regular CPU but finally the application of the thermal paste (included) went smoothly. I added a Noctua NF-A15 PWM at the back to make sure that the cooling is optimal and it's the case: under very intensive load of 3D rendering or video calculation (denoise, FX...) the processor which runs at full speed for long hours never exceeds 68°C and remains incredibly quiet.
This NOCTUA NH-U14S TR4-SP3 is a real monster that I recommend with my eyes closed for anyone looking for a fan capable of cooling a processor for professional use on very intensive tasks of long duration.
I use it as a cooling solution for a Threadripper 1950X processor, and temperatures do not exceed 64 degrees at full load - 100% usage.
I have tested it for 83 hours of 3D rendering without any problems.
