> 24 hourThis is a must own fan for people who water cool their components due to the static pressure of the fans. I wouldnt recommend spending this much money on just a case fan, but for a radiator fan this is the fan to beat.

> 24 hourThe fan pushes a decent amount of air, even on Ultra Low. My only complaint. are that it is audible on every fan setting. This is mostly due to the mechanical noise coming from the motor. Even on Ultra Low, you can still hear and audible noise coming from just the motor. It sounds like a buzzing sound, that is always going on.

> 24 hourI use these with the included Ultra Low Noise Adapter. They spin nearly silently, and airflow is slow enough as to not create additional noise.

> 24 hourThis fan has a great build quality: from removable rubber corners to deaden vibrations, rubber screws, regular screws, three different cords from pwm to extensions. This fan has it all. On top of all that its so silent. I am working to replace the other ten fans in my case with only Noctua from now on.

> 24 hourOkay so I tried really hard not to give into the hype about the fans. Prior to switching to these Noctuas I really thought people only wanted them because they are popular and refereed to on PC tech sites. However after running three of these 140s intake for my 420 rad uptop...I have to say they have plenty of SP which is what you need for radiators. Most fans loose the static pressure when a filter is introduced as most fans focus primarily on air flow. I used these to replace my Stock Corsair 140s uptop which replaced some Coguar vortex 140s. Big difference lots of air comes in from the radiators which dropped the temps by 5 degrees Celcuis and all gamers/overclokers know every degree helps. They are somewhat audible but nothing to disturbing they also come with an adapter that cuts down the voltage and noise...I also replaced the corsair 120 air flow fans I had for the front intake of the case.

> 24 hourThe packaging is really nice and makes this fan feel high quality from the start. It’s just a fan, but it’s quiet and moves a lot of air. Not much more you could ask from Noctua.

Featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A14 further improves the renowned quiet cooling performance of the award-winning NF-P14. The FLX version provides 1200/1050/900rpm speed settings via the supplied Low-Noise Adaptors in order to provide full flexibility in fine-tuning the fan for maximum ventilation performance or near-silent operation.

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. |
SSO2 BearingThe NF-A14 features 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. |
Integrated anti-vibration padsIntegrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems. |

AAO frame
Noctua"s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua"s proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan"s performance/noise efficiency.
