The Noctua NH-C14S is a high-performance air cooler designed for demanding processors, combining a compact top-flow design with premium build quality. Constructed from aluminium and copper, this cooler strikes an excellent balance between effective thermal management and a low-profile form factor, measuring just 115 mm in height. Its brown and silver aesthetic is characteristic of Noctua's signature style. Weighing 820 grams, the NH-C14S is compatible with a wide range of sockets, including Intel 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1700, and 1851, as well as AMD AM4 and AM5, making it a versatile solution for a broad selection of platforms.
Efficient Cooling with a 140 mm Fan
The NH-C14S comes equipped with a single 140 x 140 x 25 mm PWM-controlled fan, operating at 12V and delivering a maximum airflow of 29 m3/h. Thanks to pulse-width modulation support, fan speed is automatically adjusted based on thermal load, helping to keep noise levels low. At moderate speeds the cooler operates at just 19.2 dB, rising to a maximum of 24.6 dB under full load, ensuring a quiet computing environment even during intensive tasks.
Low-Profile Design for Versatile Builds
With dimensions of 140 x 163 x 115 mm, the NH-C14S is particularly suited for systems where vertical clearance is limited, such as HTPC or compact desktop builds. The top-flow orientation also directs airflow across the motherboard, potentially benefiting surrounding components like VRMs and memory modules.
