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, Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound and full 6 years
manufacturer’s warranty, the NH-C14S is a premium quality top-flow solution
for the highest demands.
