Noctua NH-D14

Barely a week after the introduction of NF-P14 FLX 140mm fan, Noctua has unveiled a new CPU cooler, the NH-D14, aimed at overclockers and silent enthusiasts. Measuring 160 x 140 x 158mm and weighing 900g, the nickel plated cooler features six copper heatpipes, a copper base and a dual radiator aluminum heatsink which can be outfitted with two 120mm/140mm fans.

The NH-D14 comes with a 120mm NF-P12 and 140mm NF-P14 fan, sporting Vortex-Control Notches on their blades, SSO-Bearings and are capable of a maximum speed of 1200/ 1300 RPM at 19.6/ 19.8dBa (for NF-P14 & NF-P12 respectively). The NH-D14 is fully compatible with Intel LGA 775, 1156, 1366 and AMD AM2(+), AM3 sockets. Available in mid November at a MSRP of USD$84.90/ 74.90 Euro, the NH-D14 also comes bundled with two Ultra-Low-Noise Adaptors and NT-H1 thermal compound.

Features

  • 6 heatpipe dual radiator design
Providing more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency than conventional tower style heatsinks, the NH-D14’s six heatpipe dual radiator design was developed to provide ultimate quiet cooling performance in dual fan mode.

  • Dual NF-P14/NF-P12 fan setup
The NH-D14 sports a premium quality dual fan setup consisting of Noctua’s award-winning NF-P12 (120mm) and NF-P14 (140mm) fans, both of which feature Vortex-Control Notches, SCD technology and SSO-Bearings in order to achieve a perfect balance of performance and quietness.

  • Asymmetrical design for high compatibility
An asymmetrical design that gives more clearance towards the RAM slots ensures good compatibility despite of the cooler’s size. The NF-P12 fan can be moved upwards or left off in order to further improve compatibility.
  • Excellent component cooling
Hanging out at the bottom of the fin-stacks, the NF-P14 fan doesn’t only contribute to the NH-D14’s superb CPU cooling capabilities but also provides massive airflow over surrounding motherboard components and heatsinks, thus ensuring excellent component cooling performance.
  • SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system
Noctua’s enthusiast grade SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting provides broad socket compatibility (LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA775, AM2, AM2+ and AM3) and meets the highest demands in safety, contact pressure and ease-of-use.
  • NT-H1 thermal compound
Noctua's much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability.
