Based on the proven, 140mm size NH-U14S heatsink and equipped with two of Noctua’s award-winning, PWM controlled NF-A15 140mm fans, it combines maximum performance and superb acoustics. Measuring 150mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the NH-U14S provides better compatibility with SLI and CrossFire setups as compared to tower coolers that are wider than 150mm or use fans wider than 150mm. For users who want to achieve even better performance using a second NF-A15 fan in push / pull operation, the NH U14s will be shipped with special fan brackets and an additional set of anti-vibration pads. The photo above shows the configuration of the heatpipes more clearly in relation to the base leading into the fin array. Based on the proven, 140mm size NH-U14S heatsink and equipped with Noctua’s award-winning, PWM controlled NF-A15 140mm fan, it combines maximum performance and superb acoustics.

Additionally, all the joints are cleanly soldered at the base, as well as the fact that the heatpipes are soldered to the fins, so that it does not lose contact over time.This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and guarantees 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans. Excellent after sales service and support is included FOC, including some free upgrades should you change your pc. Our case compatibility list helps you to quickly identify which PC cases offer sufficient clearance for which Noctua CPU coolers. I'm sure you have a very nice system so having a normalized test would clear up the questions for everyone rather than anecdotal "I can't hear it" statements.

Topped off with the professional SecuFirm2™ mounting system and pre-applied NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U14S DX-4189 forms a complete premium quality package for quietly cooling LGA4189 based Xeon workstations and servers. Thanks to their superior acoustic efficiency, they are ideal for workstations and servers that run in noise sensitive environments (e. In addition, the maximum fan speed can be reduced using the supplied Low-Noise Adaptor for even quieter operation. Like all Noctua fans, the supplied NF-F12 and NF-A15 feature an MTBF rating of more than 150,000 hours and the entire package comes with a full six years manufacturer’s warranty. This single-tower design is a bit bigger than its smaller brother, the NH-U12S I reviewed previously.The vital parts such as the base and heatpipes are built using copper for best heat transfer ability with a thermal conductivity of 401 W/mK.
