> 3 dayPut on an Intel i7 11700KF, 125 tdp. Stressing cpu runs at 60C max using 105-110 watts. Normal usage runs 34C to 43C. Idles at 26C. Happy customer, didnt get anything as low or stable using AIO water coolers. Install was easy enough as long as you follow the instructions. Fan is quiet, havent been able to get it to go over 50% yet. Board temp good to, only 26C. Might not be as pretty or cool as the AIOs but Im more into protecting my electronics.

Greater than one weekAwesome CPU cooler!! I just built a new rig with an i5-8600k and this cooler keeps it nice and cool at 28C idle / 65C MAX under full load even OC at 4.7 GHz on all 6 cores. Installation was by far the easiest Ive ever done. Yeah its big, no its HUGE, but you cant complain about the performance. Buy it and you wont regret it. Love the fact that even on silent mode, this thing still moves a lot of air and keeps temps under control and best of all, you can barely hear it. Noctua hit it out of the park with this one.

> 3 dayThis cooler was a fantastic choice for my mini-itx build. Currently paired with a ryzen 5 3600 and it idles at 35°C. In a mini-itx build that is outstanding. The interchangeable design was the only reason I was able to fit this cooler into such a small build. Standing at only 115mm with the 140mm fan on the bottom allowed me enough clearance for my ripjaws V ram plus some smaller cables. Of course since were talking about noctua, theres is little to no audible sound at idle will only hearing a slight hum at full load. Temps at 100% maxed out at 75°C. This cooler is well worth the premium price.

> 3 dayVery 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.

> 3 dayI love this cooler, the old school top down style really helps to keep VRM, mosfet and northbridge cool alongside the CPU.

> 3 dayIt was a bit difficult to install in my mid size case but work the effort. It has dropped CPU temp 20 degree C and is almost silent.
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.
