Cooling efficiency vs tower-type coolers (single fan)
The Noctua NH-C14S CPU cooler has its highs and lows based on our testing and experience, let us break that down below starting with the positives. As for aesthetics, the cooler itself is really top-notch quality from the nickel-plated heat pipes to the t...
Superb Build Quality, Excellent Cooling Performance, Low-Profile (115mm/142mm), Zero Clearance Issues, Noise Levels, Bundle, 6 Years Warranty, ,
Price (For Some),
Whereas the cooling performance of the original NH-C14 depended a lot on its two bundled 140mm fans the performance of the NH-C14S depends a lot on its design so although we wanted it to be true we didn't really expect the NH-C14S to surpass it...
Great Performance, Easy installation, Clearance for large memory modules and PCI-Express cards, Fan can be installed on the top or bottom, Extra fan clips included for a second fan
None that I found
The whole idea with the NH-C14S was to take the original NH-C14 and make it more compatible with larger memory modules, PCI-Express card, and smaller form factor systems. With the fan installed on the top of the heatsink (high clearance mode) you have up...

There is perhaps no stronger testament to efficiency than a Noctua CPU cooler (with the exception of a newer updated version) from its performance to every aspect of its build quality. Compared to the original NH-C14, the NH-C14S even improves the mountin...

Easy to install, High Quality, Excellent thermal paste included, Excellent component cooling, Height clearences
Fan color may not appeal to eveyone,
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. Th...
All in all, the new and improved Noctua coolers were a nice entry into the already crowded CPU cooling market. Their more friendly price and smaller sizes may induce users to pick up one of these outstanding coolers. Backed by the six year Noctua warranty...

Excellent Cooling at Stock and Overclocked Speeds, Extremely Quiet, Excellent Build Quality, Fit and Finish, Six 6mm Copper Heatpipes, Excellent In Case Appearance, Excellent Installation Hardware, Top or Bottom Mounting of Fan For Increased Compatibility
None….excepting the brown, of course…
The transformation of the NH-C14 to the NH-C14S was a very slight one. The tower simply needed to be shifted slight over, and at first glance the differences are nearly imperceptible. Thankfully the performance differences are imperceptible, as well, le...
