Today I will be reviewing the Phanteks PH-TC14S CPU Cooler. Manufacturers have been designing a vast variety of styles to meet the needs of a wide array of setups. If you have a particular need in a cooler you are guaranteed to find one that will fit in your particular build. So many of us have builds that consists of clearances of 1mm or less. So if you claim you can keep my PC cool while keeping the footprint of the cooler to a minimum, I am all ears. Phanteks has designed a super slim dual tower design to keep the parts cool while taking up little space. Let put the Phanteks PH-TC14S CPU cooler to the test and find out if this slim tower can keep it cool!
Phanteks’ PH-TC14S incorporates the dual tower design and performance of the PH-TC14PE but in a slimmer form. The new slim form eliminates the possibility of incompatible RAM and the motherboard’s heatsink height. PH-TC14S’s Six 6mm heat-pipes are linearly aligned and developed to have the least amount of air and thermal resistance and allows for optimal heat diffusion on fins for faster cooling.PH-TC14S includes PH-F140HP PWM ultra high static pressure Premium fans with new PH-F140HP fan blade design and allows for expansion to three PH-F140HP or any other 12025 fan for higher performance and/or silent operation.
I would like to thank Phanteks for providing the review sample. This is what Phanteks has to say about themselves on their website:
Phanteks was founded from a group of engineers with a total of 20 years of international experience in thermal solutions. They paired up with a Dutch design team and established Phanteks in 2007. Phanteks venture into the CPU cooling industry with two goals in mind, “High-end quality and innovative products in thermal solutions.” As a relatively young company, we strive to develop top quality and superior products. Our first product, PH-TC14PE, was a great success in the overclocking community. With the success we have made, we are more passionate in developing new and better innovative cooling solutions than ever. Our Phanteks Design Team is situated in the Netherlands and consists of creative researchers, designers and developers whose only desires are to bring the latest cutting edge technology to you. We are continuously pursuing excellence in thermal solutions so that we can develop and bring satisfaction to the enthusiasts and computer users everywhere. Our goal is to be the best in the industry and our motto is “no job is impossible.” |
Now let us see what this CPU cooler is all about!
