  • Still a monster performer, a great overall cooler from a great company that really stands behind their products.

    The Noctua NH-D14 has been a flagship cooler for a long, long time. When it comes to air coolers, you can pay more but I honestly don't think you're going to get better value for your money. First of all, Noctua's mounting system and hardware are simply the best when it comes to air coolers. The simplicity of the mounting system is excellent and is super well thought out. Performance of the cooler aside, the mounting system alone has won many awards for it's innovation. It's just a generally accepted truth that Noctua's mounting system is the best when it comes to air coolers. Secondly, and this is a bit more up for debate, but I feel like Noctua makes the best system fans in the game. Say what you will about the colors and the lack of (imo) juvenile and tacky RGB lighting, the fans are fantastically quiet and perform really well. They do have a line of grey and black fans now if you prefer, as well as an all black version of the cooler and included fans. I believe it's call the Chromax. Lastly and most importantly, the performance of the heatsink itself. It's definitely big with tons of big fat heatpipes. It flat out performs and despite the D14 being ancient in terms of pc hardware it still performs great. It hangs with any air cooler that might be far newer and keeps up with most aio coolers that typically cost much more. If you're able to snag one of these in good used condition like I did it presents a value that's really fantastic. I'm able to run my scorching hot 7700k at 5.0ghz (not de-lidded) at 1.34v and I never get above 75-78c while gaming and it typically stays much cooler than that. Running stress tests it does get a little hotter than that but synthetic stress tests put a load on your CPU that you just won't see in all but a very few real world applications. After I de-lid this thing I'll be seeing temps that are equal to or better than full custom loop cooling on a non de-lidded CPU. I'm super happy with this cooler and I think you will be too, especially if you can find one for $50 shipped like I did. They did finally come out with the NH-D15 model a while back and from what I can tell it's a very similar design. It's offered in all black like I mentioned earlier as well as what looks like an improved slightly heatpipe design as well as a little more clearance room for RAM with taller heatsinks. FWIW I'm running 32gb of Corsair Vengeance with the tall red LED heatsinks and I was still able to install the cooler. I don't have a ton of room but it does fit and this is definitely some of the taller RAM on the market. In short, this is a monster of an air cooler that absolutely keeps up with all the latest greatest 2019 coolers and in my opinion is a much better value than say a $150 aio cooler with a big 240mm rad. It won't cool quite as well as these high doller aio coolers but when you stack up the performance you get vs the money you spend I feel like it's a better buy, especially if you can find a good deal on a used one. A heatsink just doesn't wear out after all and of course will never leak.

  • Best Coller I have ever seen for packaging, component quality, and ease of installation

    I stress tested my CPU with this cooler and the system temperature dropped so fast after I stopped the test that I literally blinked and missed it! I am really impressed with the fan, how it was packaged, and the accessories that came with it. It included EVERYTHING I needed to install: heat sink paste, fan plug extensions, screwdriver, mounting hardware for three different CPU socket configurations. All the components were in their own box and small parts were in bags and labeled. Next time I build a high-end system I am definitely including this cooler or the next model as I am very impressed by it's performance.

  • It worsk for the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X

    I'm getting lower temperatures than others with my AMD Ryzen 9 3950X in a warm environment with MX-4 thermal paste. I'm hoping to try a 3rd Fan from Noctua to see what results I get, but I haven't heard back from Noctua yet about a 3rd fan mounting clip. The heat-sink is very heavy, so I held the motherboard by the heat-sink, and didn't put weight on the motherboard, to avoid damage. Without thermal throttling I got temps up to 165F, but I set the thermal limit to 54C 130F, and it usually stays under 150F. That is well within the 85-90C for moderate workload specified by AMD Support, so it should be fine. I did find that results improved, when I installed a 120mm case fan blowing air from the side, directly in front of the Noctua NH-D15 inlet, as my case seemed to be blocking a lot of air flow. The included thermal paste hasn't been rated better than MX-4, however I'm excited to try Noctua's newer 2nd gen Thermal paste when it's available.

  • The best air cooler on the market

    Crazy good cooling. The best air cooler on the market in my opinion and Ive used a more than a few of them as water cooling makes me nervous. The price is the only issue but you can absolutely feel and see the quality plus you get 2 noctua 140mm fans, which, lets face it, are the best fans.

  • Above and beyond expectations

    I have had no problems with this product. The application of the tiny metal clips can be a bit cumbersome but this is as expected with a CPU fan of it's size. While I have only previously had the stock CPU fan, this performs much better and quieter than the stock CPU fan. Additionally, the product comes with some nice CPU paste.

  • Arrived As Expected, Slight Jank Application.

    Cooler arrived and put into my new PC build. 2 of the clips holding 1 fan don't really tighten as well as they should to one of the heatsinks. Eventually made it work but its a little janky in feel, in which as long as my computer doesn't move a lot, it looks like it'll work. Keeping my PC cool as intended, seller seems good!

  • Powerful fan.

    Make sure you have room, and I recommend installing last. The heat sink is huge and will make installing other components and wiring very difficult. Very quiet and powerful.

  • Best air cooler around!

    Amazing cooler. Quiet, efficient, but bulky. I dont care much for the fan colors but it does it job. The price is worth it.

  • Great but huge

    Keeps my CPU very cool! Even with 1 fan. You only lose out on a couple degrees by not having second fan but save so much space! This thing is a beast, but it's huge. Get the S version if you're not sure it will fit. It's just as good but optimized to fit in the average pc.

  • Definitely the best air cooler money can buy

    Was really easy to install I installed it on a AMD FX 8370 Works absolutely great flawlessly fit into my Cooler Master HAF XB EVO like a Dandy
