Conclusion and Verdict
In conclusion, Noctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding longevity. Like all Noctua fans, the supplied NF-A14 features an MTBF rating of more than 150.000 hours and the entire NH-C14S package comes with a full 6 years manufacturer’s warranty. Having received more than 100 awards and recommendations from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua’s NT-H1 is a proven professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.
The NH-C14S is still very new to the market and that can make it a challenge to find for purchase on popular e-tailers. So far I have only been able to find the NH-C14S on Amazon sold by Noctua for 99.95 USD.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- High Quality
- Excellent thermal paste included
- Excellent component cooling
- Height clearences
Cons:
- Fan color may not appeal to eveyone
Final thoughts:
The NH-C14S definitely took the cake for C-types. The cooling capabilities are great and the residual airflow cools your motherboard components as well. If you are in the market for a C-type cooler look no further as the NH-C14S will meet your demands. The price is on the high side but you receive guaranteed results from Noctua.
