If you're planning to build a system where compatibility is an essential aspect, you'll never go wrong with the Secu-Firm2 mounting system of the Noctua NH-C14S. The cooler is very easy to setup, maintain, and remove; plus, there's also room for an extra...

Impressive thermal performance, especially for a low profile cooler , Multiple fan positions to suit most case traints, Premium build quality, Compatible with more motherboards due to the offset design, Easy to mount, Not cheap
With a street price of $125, both the NH-C14S and the NH-D15S are the most expensive CPU coolers available from Noctua. It's fair to say that the NH-C14S isn't cheap but it's a product designed to suit a particular niche and buyers need to remember that t...

The Reeven Steropes is the shortest cooler of this review, requiring just 60 mm of clearance. Reeven achieved this by installing a low profile cooler on the narrow fin array, reducing the overall height of the cooler down to the absolute minimum, allowing...

Abstract: If you're a regular visitor to the pages of OC3D you'll no have noticed a bit of dearth of cooler reviews. The reason for this is simple, we've retired the old 2011 rig and have been busy specking up and putting together a new test rig. Not that the 2011...
High build quality, Future-proofed mounting system, Customizable to suit your system and needs, Great performance,
Expansion slot use may be prevented when using this cooler, Weight – it's a heavy cooler!
Well, the Noctua NH-C14S did not fail to deliver on performance one bit! This is perhaps unsurprising considering the size of the product, but with small form factor, every component choice has pros and cons – in this case (pun intended), a larger case ma...
Exceptional performance, Very quiet, Good memory and PCIe clearance, Easy to install, Exceptional build quality, Well packaged, Excellent accessories bundle, Six year warranty
Expensive, Extra NF-A14 fan is expensive, Color theme not for everyone
The Noctua NH-C14S can be found at retail for $79.99. Exceptional performance Very quiet Good memory and PCIe clearance Easy to install Exceptional build quality Well packaged Excellent accessories bundle Six year warranty Expensive Extra NF-A14 fan is ex...
Let's wrap things up… After taking a look at these two additions to Noctua's fairly hefty lineup of air coolers, I have to say I am impressed. While you shouldn't expect to get the absolute best possible cooling performance out of these units (for that, y...
For the NH-C14S you need to understand the purpose, it is silence. Looks aside (and remember you can mount that fan on top as well) it does perform as expected and what you may expect from a proper heatpipe based cooler. The Core i7 4790K we used remains...

The Noctua NH-C14S C-Type Premium CPU Cooler is one heck of a CPU cooler that we would recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their system to get that added bit of performance, don't forget that second NF-A14 fan though!...
