Let's wrap things up… After taking a look at these two additions to Noctua's fairly hefty lineup of air coolers, I have to say I am impressed. While you shouldn't expect to get the absolute best possible cooling performance out of these units (for that, y...
For the NH-C14S you need to understand the purpose, it is silence. Looks aside (and remember you can mount that fan on top as well) it does perform as expected and what you may expect from a proper heatpipe based cooler. The Core i7 4790K we used remains...

The Noctua NH-C14S C-Type Premium CPU Cooler is one heck of a CPU cooler that we would recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their system to get that added bit of performance, don't forget that second NF-A14 fan though!...

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
