> 3 dayThese are the best fans in the market, there is no doubt about that. Ive had quite a few fans and noctua is the first one that actually feels like quality and sounds like it too. I bought these to replace some Nzxt fans that came with their kraken series, after about 3 months they started making rattling noises.

> 3 dayGreat fan until it went bad about 3 months after purchase. Noctua has been telling me they are sending me a new fan since march 2014, its now august. Their customer service is an absolute joke which is too bad because it was a nice fan.

> 3 dayBought two of these bad boys to replace the absolute unmitigated garbage stock Corsair fans that came on the 280mm radiator of my h110i cooler, which produced a grinding noise even when set on quiet profile. Holy crap are they quiet! I had heard these fans were the best and I am not disappointed!

> 3 dayThese fans are worth the premium price. They push a ton of air, to be so quiet. I wish I had known about these before. Some people are bothered by the color, but for me, the functionality is the important part.

Greater than one weekSo far awesome fans! I used them to replace the two fans that Corsair uses on the h110i liquid cooler. Everyone said these fans were loud but compared to the ones that came with the h110i they are way quieter! Even with the fans being quoted I still can feel a ton of air being moved. So far after a couple of weeks, I am happy with my purchase.

> 3 dayHideous but superb performance while remaining quiet. Happily Noctua now offers black fans with colored vibration-dampening corner pieces.so I may be replacing the 5 of these I bought :-)

> 3 dayInstalled it as an additional 2 fans into the top of my case to pull hot air out of the case. I have not had heat issues prior to that, so its hard to tell. My push-pull fan configuration looks like bottom fans > rtx2080ti > CPU cooler (Noctua d15) > 2x Noctua NF-A14 fans.

Greater than one weekAnother great fan by Noctua. I have this mounted in the rear of my Corsair 750D intaking air onto my Motherboard heatsink and providing my exhaust fans/radiator fans with nice cool air. Was a little on the noisy side at first, but I am extremely sensitive to noise. I like things perfectly silent. Using AI Suite on my ASUS Motherboard, I have it running perfectly quiet and still keeping things perfectly cool.

The NF-A14 is a premium quality quiet 140mm fan with a square frame that complies with Noctua’s AAO(Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) standard. Its square shape and 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) make it ideal for use on watercooling radiators or as an upgrade for 140mm case fans. 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 PWM version sports Noctua’s custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1500rpm to 1200rpm. Its performance-oriented 1500rpm top speed and comprehensive speed control options make the NF-A14 PWM an elite choice for users who strive to strike a perfect balance between excellent cooling capacity and superb quietness of operation, be it on watercooling radiators, on heatsinks or in case ventilation.
Square 140mm frame
The NF-A14"s square 140mm frame with 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) makes it a premium grade replacement for common 140mm case fans and perfect for use on 140mm water cooling radiators, where its square shape will ensure full coverage and best pressure performance.

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. |
