It's Noctua, it's efficient and very reliable (no risk of pump failure). It's more than enough to cool down a Ryzen 5 5600X which is barely heating up. The top flows are not necessarily the most efficient in absolute terms, but I like the look (if you like brown and beige) and it sends a constant flow of air over the ram and vrm which is not a bad thing. But if you have ram's with led's it will hide them.
Installed in a NCase M1, excellent ventirad, very nice with a side window by placing the fan in low profile position.
Be careful however in a NCase M1 the 140 Supplied fan will not fit, you need a 120mm max.
Tired of the unreliability of AIO toilets ("cardboard" pumps that fail), I went back to fans.
Easy to install, this Noctua fan, with two 140 mm push-pull fans, keeps a Xeon E5-2687W at less than 65°C at full load, while absorbing nearly 150 W. All of this with an appreciable silence (24 dB at 1 m measured with a sound level meter). Being top-flow, the CPU VRMs and RAM modules are also well cooled.
Only the price is a little tingling, but the result is quickly forgotten.
A very good product that does its job silently
Beware of small cases as it is huge
processor at 40° in Idle and does not exceed 55¨ in load
I recommend it if you don't want to ruin yourself with a watercooling
Installed on an Intel Devil i7 4790k, the heatsink dissipates heat so well that the CPU remains at 20°C at idle and 45°C in very demanding software.
Nevertheless, this performance was achieved in a very well ventilated case and with 2 Prolimatech Vortex Ultra Seek 14 fans of 98 CFM each.
I recommend this radiator for its acceptable dissipation and volume. The Noctua fan can easily be used as a case fan at low speed.
Does his job very well.
The installation is simple, well guided by the various instructions and facilitated by the design of the beast.
It is quite massive but the fixings to the motherboard are very solid.
Almost no noise in nominal operation (Noctua inside) and a barely perceptible murmur under load
Cooled a 2500k oc at 4ghz in a midi 2 arc, average temperature around 35°, barely passes 40 in games.
Requires time to assemble but very good ventirad, low noise
This one does its job perfectly. It is mounted on an Intel Core i7-4770S (3.1 GHz) with temperatures around 50° in 5V. On the other hand, the fan can sometimes emit a slight humming noise, but nothing too bad.
This Noctua NH-C14S cools a Fx8320 mounted on an AsRock 980DE3/U3S3 motherboard in a Zalman Z9U3 case.
For the assembly, it is necessary to connect the power cable of the fan on the motherboard before mounting the radiator on the processor, because afterwards we have more room to manipulate this cable between the top of the case and this imposing radiator.
The advantage over the NH-U12P is that it also cools the CM mosfets by blowing towards the CM.
The speed of the NF-A14 PWM fan is set by the motherboard automatically, from 325 rpm to 1215 rpm with the setting I put (level 2 - 50°) in the bios, and the l.N.A. connected.
