Continuing with tradition, Noctua is offering the new NM-I2011 SecuFirm2™ mountings free of charge to new and existing customers, which is compatible with their whole line of retail heatsinks. We at VR-Zone tested it on our previously reviewed NH-C14 and the new ASUS Sabertooth X79 to bring you the mounting procedures and some idea about ram clearance.
In our labs today is an interesting product from the alpine nation of Austria. Noctua's NH-C14 processor heatsink possesses an interesting design which lets you mount the fan either above or below the fin array, promising compatibility with large memory modules or narrow casings. Read on to find out how Noctua's top-flow heatsink design stacks up.

Noctua has updated its DO line of CPU coolers for AMD Opteron (Socket G34) based servers and workstations with the new NH-U12DO A3 and NH-U9DO A3. These coolers each come with two of Noctua's renowned premium quality fans to achieve further improved quiet cooling performance.
As the heatsink mounting holes for both LGA 1155 and LGA 1156 sockets are identical, Noctua's NM-I3 SecuFirm2 mounting kit for LGA 1156 will support Intel's upcoming 'Sandy Bridge' platform. Also, Noctua has announced that owners of older Noctua CPU coolers who wish to upgrade to the upcoming LGA 1155 socket will be able to obtain the appropriate NM-I3 SecuFirm2 mounting kit free of charge!
Noctua has introduced its new NH-C14 CPU cooler. Sporting an exquisite, uniquely flexible 140mm dual fan setup of two Noctua NF-P14, the NH-C14 is a highly customisable, premium-class top-flow solution that further boosts the renowned quiet cooling performance of the company's much acclaimed NH-C12 series.
