motosu-ko - formd t1 × liquidhaus ext.

So it's finally done, moving my components to the FormD T1 and building a fancy custom loop with an external radiator setup on an Liquidhaus EXT to cool it. It was actually built and has been running since mid February of this year but I'm only just now writing about it due to procrastinating a whole lot. The PC has been working without any issues so far, no hardware problems, leaks or stuff growing inside the loop so I do have confirmation that I didn't mess up anything while building it at least. In this post I'll cover the hardware of this build, both the new additions and the old stuff I carried over from my previous Meshlicious build since I never actually wrote about the specs of my PC before.

The case, as already mentioned is a FormD T1 v2.1. This being the T1 from the original team/factory (being sold at formdt1.com), something I have to clarify as the dispute between the two founders behind the original case has only gotten messier and both are now offering their own T1's on different sites (Caselabs.org has a writeup on it if you're curious). I got the case in Titanium with matching side panels, being surrounded by largely black colored devices it stands out to a surprising degree despite the T1's minimalist exterior design which I really enjoy. The build experience with the T1 is fairly intuitive as the inside of the case is basically just a few aluminum struts to mount the components to, I did have to use YouTube build guides for additional reference though as the offical manual is extremely lackluster. The only notable pain point for assembling the case was having to bend the riser cable, it has a reputation for being fragile but requires a scary amount of force in order to fit.

When it comes to custom loop components, specifically the fittings I mostly have ones made by EKWB. It's something I wanna mention up front as a few months after I completed this build it came to light that EK was doing some really awful stuff to their employees (Gamers Nexus were the ones who broke the news on this whole mess). While I don't think it'd be reasonable to replace those parts just because the company that made them turned out to be shitty I'll definitely choose other brands when I'll swap out fittings or other components in order to simplify/optimize the loop in the future.

Now onto the thing that's largely responsible for keeping the PC cooled, which is the external radiator setup. When it comes to external rads, Watercool's MO-RA in a square, two columns of two 200mm fans seems to be the most popular option, though personally I'm not a huge fan of the car radiator aesthetic and as I also wanted something to sit on the desk the footprint of those radiators was also way too large. So what I went for instead is a Liquidhaus EXT radiator stand, combined with an EKWB X560M radiator and a quarted of Noctua's NF-A14 140mm fans. Mounted on the backside of the radiator is a Watercool Heatkiller Tube reservoir that also houses the D5 pump that's powering the loop. I really love how this whole assembly towers over everthing else on the desk and while the PC can't run without it due to the pump being in there it does make filling the loop trivially easy. Cable management for the fans could use some improvement though, I'll probably need to learn how to make custom cables if I want to make it really presentable.

Tubing used throughout the build is 10/16mm (inner/outer diameter) EPDM from Watercool, it's rubber soft tubing that's easy to work with and won't discolor or leech any substances into the loop over time like transparent soft tubing options. Liquidhaus, who besides making the EXT also make some really cool PC builds where they'll sometimes wrap soft tubing in MDPC-X (the same kind of cable sleeving some fancy custom PSU and keyboard cables use), it's something I really want to try myself in the future. Though I'll have to confirm wheter or not Watercool's EPDM is even suitable for this beforehand, softness of this type of tubing can vary between manufacturer/supplier and with the additional sleeving layer it might be impossible to secure the collars for the compression fittings.

The external radiator and case are linked together with two pairs of Koolance QDT4 quick disconnect fittings, they are basically scaled up versions of the much recommended QD3 quick disconnects that don't restrict liquid flow as much due to that size increase. Originally I wanted to mount them on 90° fittings, pointing downwards but the QDT4's are so heavy that they put too much stress on the o-ring inside the rotary part of those fittings that they wouldn't hold pressure during leak testing. Because of this I just screwed the quick disconnects into the T1's pass through fittings directly, this does add some extra length to the case but I've honestly started to enjoy how this looks, with the two large connectors much more visible this way.

The pass through section on the inside of the case has some really messy tube runs on both the gpu and motherboard side. I failed to account for the radiator bracket extending so far to the back of the case and also the large amount of cables on top of the motherboard taking up so much space so I had to use some complex fitting combinations in order to make these two runs work. These sections of the loop will definitely need some improvements in the future, I wanna reduce the amount of fittings used and simplify them, will probably also need silicone sleeved PSU cables to free up some space in order to allow for that.

For a motherboard I have an Asus B550-I, Asus are the only ones that put 2-pin temperature sensor headers on ITX boards (at least on AM4) so I'm glad I chose this board years ago even though I wasn't even sure whether I'd get into custom watercooling back then. Because of this I can have the fan speed adjust to the coolant temperature directly through the BIOS and don't need an additional controller that would need mounting, cables and software running in the background to get that same functionality.

On the board sits a humble AMD 5600X that I've had since I first got into DIY PC's back in late 2020 and it has so far offered enough performance for all my gaming needs. A lot less humble is the brick of copper that's cooling it, the Optimus Signature V3 waterblock that was more expensive than the actual CPU. When I'll upgrade my CPU at some point in the future I'll almost certainly move to AM5 (which shares the cooler mounting with AM4) so I figured I can treat myself to a fancy boutique part as I can carry it over to the next build.

RAM is a TeamGroup Dark Pro DDR4 32GB 3600MHz CL16 kit, one neat feature about these is that the plastic bit on top of the heatspreader can be removed to make them a few mm shorter which made the straightfoward tubing run from the CPU block to the internal radiator possible. For storage I have a single Samsung 980 PRO 2TB SSD, the previous build in the Meshlicious had a second one in the rear M.2 slot but the T1's riser cable hugs the back of the motherboard so tightly that the drive couldn't fit with it's heatsink attached and running it without the cooler is a bit to risky to me (more so out of concern for the riser than the SSD itself). I mainly got this second drive because it was at a decent price during a sale rather than a need for this much storage so it's not really a loss, regretfully it was a needless purchase of me though.

Powering the PC is a Corsair SF750, a SFX PSU that has been held in high regard by the SFF community that's recently been discontinued (though it is being replaced by a newer, identically named SF750 as part of a new SFX PSU lineup from Corsair that'll hopefully live up to the original's quality). The paracord sleeved cables that came with the PSU are decently flexible but they're also excessively long for such a small case that led to a lot of excess cable being shoved onto the GPU side as you can see below. I made it work but it would've been much better if I had gotten a tailor made PSU cable kit instead.

To make full use of the T1's space I have an XSPC TX240 radiator paired with two Noctua Chromax NF-A12×25 fans that provide a bit of extra cooling. This radiator/fan combo taps so close to the 46mm of clearance in the T1's top that I had to remove the fans rubber anti-vibration pads and use screws that don't go through the whole fan frame as just one extra millimeter would prevent the top panel from fitting. At first I also tried to have the radiator mounted on top of the fans but found out that it's sides were scraping against parts of the top panel which is why there's a few scratch marks on the rad, whoopsy!

The GPU side of the case is pretty straightfoward and there's nothing really spectacular I had to build here. The little column coming down from the radiator is a t-splitter where, on the G1/4 thread facing the inside of the case a generic plug-style temperature sensor from Koolance is screwed in. Next in the loop order is the GPU, an Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition with a waterblock from EKWB. Thanks to the compact PCB of this card the GPU shrunk quite a bit with the new cooler, this turned out to be very useful as it left a lot of room for the aforementioned excess of PSU cables. This side of the case is also where all the cables for the external radiator go out, the T1's back is pretty much just open so they're only fixed in place there with a few cable ties.

Putting this whole build together turned out to be a pretty big challenge, while the regular PC building stuff wasn't an issue I grossly underestimated the amount of time it would take to assemble the custom loop. Initially I thought it'd take me maybe four or five days with a weekend during that period to complete it but instead it was a full two weeks of work, starting from disassembly of the old build to completion of the new one. Having started this project with neither the case, tubing or fittings in hand meant that I only had a rough idea of how I'd lay out the tubing runs and this led to a lot of redoing of sections becasue what I had planned beforehand would simply not work. I did however get extra fittings for potential alernate routing options in advance and managed to make things work with what I had on hand, there's two 45° adapters in the loop that I initially didn't plan on using but the build would not have been possible without them so thankfully I managed to compensate for my sloppy planning this way.

Overall I'm satisfied with how this project turned out. It's currently the middle of summer here in Germany and despite having no AC in my room the PC remains quiet even under full load, the fan speed changing in a much more gradual manner due to it being controlled via the coolant temperature also makes for a much more pleasant noise profile compared to the old AIO/air cooled Meshlicious. For that previous build I used some fairly conservative, set and forget undervolt settings for both the CPU and GPU but I do want to squeeze out a better performance to watt ratio on this new one after spending so much time, effort and money on such a complex cooling solution (and also save a bit of power at the same time). There's still lot's of places in this build that could do with improvements as right now it's very much function over form, but then again the goal of this whole project was to lay the foundation for further refinement projects so I'd say it accomplished that quite well.

Features: The NF-A14 is a premium quality quiet 140mm fan with a square frame that complies with Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) standard. Its square shape and 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) make it ideal for use on watercooling radiators or as an upgrade for 140mm case fans. Featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A14 further improves the renowned quiet cooling performance of the award-winning NF-P14. The PWM version sports Noctua's custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1500rpm to 1200rpm. Its performance-oriented 1500rpm top speed and comprehensive speed control options make the NF-A14 PWM an elite choice for users who strive to strike a perfect balance between excellent cooling capacity and superb quietness of operation, be it on watercooling radiators, on heatsinks or in case ventilation. Succeeding the award-winning NF-P14 Noctua's NF-P14 fan has become a default-choice among PC enthusiasts looking for a premium quality quiet 140mm fan. Thanks to its thoroughgoing aerodynamic optimisations, the NF-A14 provides higher static pressure and an even better airflow/noise ratio than its much acclaimed predecessor. Square 140mm frame The NF-A14's square 140mm frame with 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) makes it a premium grade replacement for common 140mm case fans and perfect for use on 140mm water cooling radiators, where its square shape will ensure full coverage and best pressure performance. Flow Acceleration Channels The NF-A14 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. AAO frame Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua's proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan's performance/noise efficiency. Stepped Inlet Design Noctua's Stepped Inlet Design adds turbulence to the influx in order to facilitate the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow, which reduces tonal intake noise, improves flow attachment and increases suction capacity, especially in space-restricted environments. Inner Surface Microstructures With the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency. Integrated anti-vibration pads Integrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems. SSO2 Bearing The NF-A14 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. Metal bearing shell In order to guarantee the highest possible degree of manufacturing precision, minimum tolerance and excellent long-term stability, the NF-A14 sports a CNC milled bearing shell made entirely from brass. Custom-designed PWM IC with SCD Supporting fully automatic PWM speed control, the NF-A14 PWM uses Noctua's novel, custom-designed NE-FD1 PWM IC that integrates Smooth Commutation Drive (SCD) technology. By providing smoother torque impulses, SCD suppresses PWM switching noises and thus makes the fan quieter at low speeds. Stops at 0% PWM When the fan is set to 0% PWM duty cycle by the motherboard or PWM fan controller, it will stop. This makes it ideal for creating setups with semi-passive cooling that automatically turn the fans off and thus run completely silent at idle if thermals allow. Low-Noise Adaptor The NF-A14 PWM is supplied with a (L.N.A.) that reduces the maximum fan speed from 1500 to 1200rpm. The L.N.A. can be used either to run the fan at a fixed speed of 1200rpm or to cap the maximum speed when using automatic PWM control. Extensive cabling options The fan's short 20cm primary cable minimises cable clutter in typical applications while the supplied 30cm extension provides extended reach when necessary. Both cables are fully sleeved and a 4-pin y-cable allows the connection of a second NF-A14 PWM fan to the same PWM fan header for automatic control. Specifications: Size 140x140x25 mm Mounting hole spacing 124,5x124,5 mm Connector & pin-configuration 4-pin PWM Cable length 20cm + 30cm NA-EC1 extension cable Bearing SSO2 Blade geometry A-Series with Flow Acceleration Channels Frame technology AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) Rotational speed (+/- 10%) 1500 RPM Rotational speed with L.N.A.

Noctua at Computex 2019

Vienna, June 5th 2019– At this year’s Computex Taipei trade show, Noctua displayed a wide range of upcoming products and prototypes, including its next-generation 140mm dual tower CPU coolers, a fanless heatsink and all-black versions of the NH-D15, NH-U12S and NH-L9i models. The NF-A12x25 was awarded best case fan of the year by the European Hardware Association and shown in an upcoming black variant.

Among a broad range of exclusive products and prototypes, the next generation of Noctua’s award-winning NH-D15 and NH-D15S CPU coolers took centre stage: with 7 instead of 6 heatpipes and 10% more surface area, the new models will provide further improved cooling performance at high heat loads while assuring excellent PCIe compatibility due to an asymmetrical design inherited from the NH-D15S. Noctua is preparing multi-socket (AM4, LGA20xx, LGA115x) and dedicated TR4 versions, both of which will come in single and dual fan variants. While the single fan units will provide full compatibility with RAM modules of up to 65mm height, the dual fan ones will further push the limits of air cooling performance. In on-site live demonstrations, the next-generation model outperformed the current NH-D15 by around 1.5°C on 280W heating elements and managed to cool an overclocked AMD Threadripper 2990WX CPU at a heat load of no less than 435W. Squarely aimed at the most demanding enthusiasts, who push their processors to the absolute maximum and for whom every degree counts, the new versions are currently scheduled for the first half of 2020.

Another highlight of this year’s line-up was Noctua’s new fanless cooler project. Designed for passive cooling from the ground up, the 1.5kg prototype was demoed in a completely fanless, silent system from QuietPC.com that relies on natural convection only. Despite the less than ideal conditions on the show floor, the cooler managed to keep an Intel Core i9 9900K CPU in check while the processor was fully stressed running Prime95 and producing a heat load of almost 120W. By adding an additional low-noise case fan, such as the NF-A12x25 ULN, the prototype was able to dissipate up to 180W, making it ideal for semi-passive setups. It is currently scheduled to hit the market in the first half of 2020.

Shown in an early prototype stage last year, the upcoming desk fan based on the NF-A12x25 and a three-way Airflow Amplification System was now displayed as a pre-production prototype with updated visual design. Thanks to the Airflow Amplification System that accelerates and enhances the fan’s airflow, it produces a strong, focused beam of air that can be felt even at a distance of more than 2m, despite the fact that the fan is quiet enough to blend into near-silent office environments. The desk fan is expected to hit the market sometime next year.

In the chromax line, Noctua showed all-black versions of the NH-D15, NH-U12S and NH-L9i as well as black versions of the NF-A20, NF-A9, NF-A9x14 and NF-A8 fans, all of which are scheduled for release in Q4 2019. The black versions of the NF-A12x25 and NF-A12x15 that were on display are on the roadmap for the first half of 2020. In addition to its black chromax line fans, Noctua displayed white variants of the NF-A15, NF-A14 and NF-F12 that are targeted for the first half of 2020 as well.

The chromax line heatsink covers for the NH-U14S and TR4-SP3 will be available shortly. Noctua’s redux line will be expanded with an NH-U12 series CPU cooler. True to the spirit of the redux line, it will be a streamlined, attractively priced version of the popular NH-U12S. While the number of heatpipes and accessories will be reduced, the cooler will come with the same proven SecuFirm2™ mounting system as Noctua’s more expensive coolers. It is currently scheduled for release in the first half of 2020.

The fan prototypes on display included slim 140×15, 80×15, 70×15 and 50x10mm A-series models as well as a 140mm counterpart of the NF-A12x25, all of which are on the roadmap for 2021. A 60x15mm model should become available in the second half of 2020.

Last but not least, Noctua displayed two upcoming accessories, both of which should arrive on the market by the end of the year: an 8-port fan hub that will allow users to connect, control and monitor up to 8 PWM fans and a 24V to 12V DC-DC step-down converter. The latter will make it possible to run all 12V Noctua fans in 24V environments, thus enabling users to operate 40 and 60mm fans like the NF-A4x10 FLX and NF-A6x25 PWM in 24V-based systems such as 3D printers. The converter will support both PWM and voltage-based speed control as well as RPM monitoring.

Away from the busy show floor, Noctua’s flagship fan NF-A12x25 was voted best case fan of the year by the jury of the European Hardware Association, made up of editors of nine leading hardware publications from Europe. Remarkably, the NF-A12x25 was also the first cooling product ever to make it to the shortlist for best overall product of the year.

About Noctua

Designed in Austria, Noctua’s premium cooling components are internationally renowned for their superb quietness, exceptional performance and thoroughgoing quality. Having received more than 6000 awards and recommendations from leading hardware websites and magazines, Noctua’s fans and heatsinks are serving hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers around the globe.

Обычные вентиляторы для ПК работают от 12 вольт, но есть также сценарии, где используются 5-вольтовые модели. Согласно Noctua, этот рынок будет постепенно расти, а сам австрийский производитель представил большую серию вентиляторов на 5 В - начиная от 40-мм модели, заканчивая огромным вентилятором на 200 мм. Согласно Noctua, потребность в 5-вольтовых вентиляторах существует не только в промышленной среде и 3D-печати, но и у пользователей видеооборудования, а также сетевых устройств и накопителей, которые хотят поменять шумные "родные" вентиляторы на более современные ШИМ-варианты. Ранее компания предлагала подобные модели только в размерах 40 и 60 мм, но теперь ассортимент сильно расширяется. Noctua выпустила в 5-В варианте уже известные модели: NF-A4x10 (40 мм), NF-A8 (80 мм), NF-A9 (92 мм), NF-A12x25 (120 мм), NF-F12 (120 мм ), NF-A14 (140 мм) and NF-A20 (200 мм). Все вентиляторы располагают как 3-, так и 4-контактным коннектором и поставляются с USB-адаптером, который позволяет запитывать устройства от USB-портов, переносных аккумуляторов или блоков питания с выходом USB. Кроме того, в комплект входит переходник OmniJoin для соответствующих проприетарных разъемов. Для безопасности подключения вентиляторы снабжены механизмом защиты от неправильной полярности. Особенно интересными будут модели крупных размеров. Их можно использовать как для вентиляции в комнате, так и для охлаждения бытовой техники - например, в шкафу с аудио- и видеоаппаратурой. �� всех есть зарядные устройства для смартфонов и переносные аккумуляторы, так почему бы не использовать их вместе с новыми вентиляторами? Как и в случае обычных моделей Noctua, время наработки на отказ новых 5-вольтовых вентиляторов составляет 150.000 часов. Производитель дает полную гарантию на срок до шести лет. Цены на новые модели следующие: - NF-A20 5V & NF-A20 5V PWM: 29,90 евро; - NF-A12x25 5V & NF-A12x25 5V PWM: 29,90 евро; - NF-A14 5V & NF-A14 5V PWM: 21,90 евро; - NF-F12 5V & NF-F12 5V PWM: 19,90 евро; - NF-A9 5V & NF-A9 5V PWM: 17,90 евро; - NF-A8 5V & NF-A8 5V PWM: 16,90 евро; - NF-A4x10 5V PWM & NF-A4x10 PWM: 14,90 евро.

Test - Noctua NH-C14S - Conseil Config: Specs | Price | CPU Perfromance| Hashrate| Setup| Config | Advantage (Pros) and Disadvantages (Cons) and other important features that will help you make better decision Here we are back at Noctua which is gradually changing its old range with today a cooler in "Top Flow" format, a direct descendant of the aging but nevertheless very efficient NH-C14 (see the test here) I named the NH -C14 S ! In the program a memory compatibility which remains excellent but above all a planing on the PCIe port side which will allow the use of a graphics card in the first slot, which will be a deliverance for those who have a motherboard with the first PCIe port glued to the socket processor. In the process, however, we lose a fan to go from 2 for the NH-C14 to only 1 for the NH-C14S, the price remains at 74.90 € TTC, let's see if the youngest does better than his big brother! We do not change something that works at Noctua, the box is in line with all the other products of the brand with their famous color which does not necessarily please everyone as well as the model and a list of the strong points of the beast ("Top Flow", "Low profile" mode, NF-A14 PWM fan, LNA adapter, etc.). At the back again a listing of the main strengths, but this time with a small spiel accompanying each of them. On the side as usual all the technical characteristics are present, weight, dimensions, compatible sockets as well as the specifications of the fan. When opening the box we find the classic 3 small boxes, 1 for the Intel assembly system, 1 for the AMD system and another containing the accessories (screwdriver, thermal paste, etc.). Under the boxes of accessories we fall on the beast, and as much to say that Noctua was not stingy on the cardboard, a stack of cardboard worthy of Russian dolls allowing the NH-C14S to be very well protected. Here is the beast! Visually not that different than its big brother, apart from the fan which becomes square instead of the round fan and some small changes here and there that we will see right away! Let's start with the options available to us in terms of the placement of the fan, either at the top if the space in the tower allows it, leaving the field free for the memory modules or at the bottom with the fan blowing upwards for the boxes skimpy. The radiator is made up of 66 aluminum fins, as usual at Noctua the quality is first class, we expected no less! The heat pipes are nickel plated. We can see that unlike the first NH-C14 of the name a reinforced bar is present as standard so that the beast does not bend, which is a very good thing. On the front wing the Noctua logo engraved, as usual for the brand, but it remains very discreet and sober! At the rear there are 6 heat pipes, 3 on each side with the support bar in the center, itself raised so as not to reduce performance. Note that the heat sink is shorter on one side than the other to ensure compatibility with the first PCIe port. The build quality is really excellent here, no twisted fins and you can see the 2 holes that will allow the screwdriver supplied to pass through to fix the beast. The base is therefore composed of 6 heat pipes surmounted by a block accommodating the support bar, the quality of manufacture and finishes are as usual impeccable. The finish is once again excellent, the surface in contact with the processor has a mirror effect with grooves in the shape of a circle, becoming smaller and smaller as they get closer to the center. The supplied fan is an NF-A14 PWM running at a maximum speed of 1500 RPM (tested here) and will therefore be without surprises very pleasant to use, like a majority of the brand's fans. The big change here compared to the old NH-C14 besides the fact that the fan is in the “normal” square format is that it is finally PWM compatible and therefore directly manageable by the motherboard. The bundle consists of: - 1 venterad Noctua NH-C14S - 1 tube of thermal paste - 1 kit de fixation Intel - 1 kit de fixation AMD - 1 LNA adapter - 2 clips for an optional fan - 1 Phillips screwdriver - 1 Noctua metal sticker - The different manuals We do not redo the bundle at Noctua, we have everything you need to install the NH-C14S without problems, screwdriver, thermal paste, adapter to lower the maximum fan RPMs and even a sticker metal logo, for those that they want to play it in society.

The weight is in accordance with the dimensions of the beast, 820g without fan for 1015g with, a good little kilo of cooling! The NH-C14S is of course compatible with all current sockets ranging from 115x to 2011-3 at Intel (point of 1366 and 775 however, they have long been outdated) and all AMD sockets, as much to say that it will have to be done on purpose so as not to have a compatible socket 😉. On the cooling side, Noctua offers 6 nickel-plated copper heat pipes responsible for transmitting the heat to the 66 aluminum fins, themselves cooled by an NF-A14 PWM fan rotating at a maximum speed of 1500 RPM (1200 RPM with the LNA adapter ) for a given maximum sound level of 24.6 dB (19.2 dB with the LNA adapter).Offered at a price of 74.90 € it is clear that as usual the NH-C14S is not given, but we are entitled to a 6-year warranty accompanied by an MTBF of 150,000 hours for the fan, so a Once purchased, we are relatively quiet, especially since Noctua ensures the compatibility of new sockets when they are released by providing free fixing kits if necessary. The assembly does not change from other Noctua products and turns out to be as usual very simple and fast, let's go! To start, you have to put the back plate in place under the motherboard, being careful to put it in the right direction. Then put the black plastic spacers as above. Once done, all you have to do is install the 2 fixing plates. Then they must be screwed, and once done pose a grain of rice of thermal paste. Then nothing could be simpler, you have to put the radiator (without the fan) on the processor and screw the 2 screws through the 2 holes provided for this purpose on the radiator. Once screwed, just place the fan above (or below depending on the space available in the box) and it's done! PCIe and memory compatibility As usual the big fear when buying a cooler is compatibility with the motherboard, by that I mean the memory as well as the PCIe port which can be stuck to the socket. Let's see what this gives for the first PCIe port first: Noctua did not lie when he said that the compatibility with the first PCIe port has been worked on, it will be possible to install a graphics card there without the slightest problem! Now let's remember, to do this I did not take a photo with the fan above, because with 7 cm there will be plenty to do! With low profile memory modules there will still be 1cm of space between them and the fan, so be careful what you buy! The test platform The Noctua NH-C14S has been tested on the configuration below: - Processor : Intel Core i7 875K @ 3.2 Ghz - Motherboard : Asus P7P55D - Mémoire: Kingston HyperX 4 x 2 Go 1600Mhz - Disque dur: WD Raptor 150 Go - Graphics card : Sapphire Toxic 5850 - Power supply : Seasonic X650 The test protocol The core i7 875K has been slightly overclocked to 3.2Ghz. The temperatures under load are an average of all the cores for 3 tests of 30 minutes on OCCT, the temperatures at rest were taken after 15mins on the desk (still an average of the 4 cores). All the tests will be done with a 5V, 12V and PWM fan managed by the motherboard once above, then the same tests with the fan below. The cooler has been tested against: - be quiet! Pure Rock (tested here) - Cryorig C1 (tested here) - Noctua NH-C14 (tested here) - Noctua NH-L12 (tested here) - Noctua NH-C12 (tested here) - Noctua NH-D15 (tested here) - Scythe Ninja 4 (tested here) The choice of coolers is not random, the NH-C14S being a "Top Flow" cooler I compared it to its competitors in my possession, namely the Cryorig C1, Noctua NH-L12 and Noctua NH-C12P. In addition to the “Top Flow” coolers, I added the monstrous Noctua NH-D15 which is the best in terms of air cooling as well as the be quiet! Pure Rock, which is an entry-level cooler, will also be there to see the difference in performance. Likewise, the Scythe Ninja 4 which represents an excellent performance / silence / price / compatibility and present ratio. The temperatures As we can see the Noctua NH-C14S is really quite capable of keeping the core i7 cool! However, a difference of around 3 ° is observed in all readings when the fan is in the low position, certainly due to a more difficult supply of air. With the fan in 12V the processor goes up to a maximum of 53 ° (56 ° in the lower position) for 63 ° (66 ° in the lower position) in 5V and the PWM mode meanwhile stabilizes the processor at 58 °, very good results for a Top Flow cooler.We notice that the temperatures are identical to its big brother the NH-C14 (which have been redone for the occasion), we could say that there is no real evolution but the NH-C14 first of the name is equipped with 2 fans, so the NH-C14S maintains the same level of performance with 1 less fan, not bad! Noise pollution Warning: Part to be taken with a grain of salt, unfortunately not having access to the appropriate equipment and using an android application to take the readings The measurements below are only indicative! The readings were taken 15cm from the cooler. The ambient sound level recorded is 31 dB. In terms of noise pollution, it is once again very good for the NH-C14S, the fan behaves really very well as usual with Noctua with 39 dB (41 dB with the fan below) in PWM mode, 32 dB in 5V and 45 dB in 12V. However, it should be noted that in PWM the fan does not turn at the same speed as in 5V, when it turns at 700 RPM in 5V it only turns at 300 RPM in PWM, which means that it is completely silent in the latter mode.As usual, the fan does not suffer from any parasitic noise, no friction, no buzzing of any kind, simply a pleasure for the ears as long as it does not turn fully of course because with 45 dB it will be heard clearly. Here we are at the end of this test, what about the NH-C14S from Noctua?The NH-C14S has the heavy task of succeeding the first NH-C14 of the name and it must be said that it passes the test with flying colors, all the small negative points have been corrected such as the blocking of the first PCIe port, and the reinforcement is now directly integrated so you don't have to worry about this anymore.In terms of performance it maintains the same level as its big brother while losing a fan in the process, which in the end is not very serious, even if between us the presence of a second fan would not have been an evil. Noise nuisance is contained and in line with what Noctua has offered us until now, ie silent at rest and audible when charging in PWM mode while remaining very pleasant to the ear because it is free from parasitic noise.Offered at a price of 74.90 € which does not change from its big brother despite the loss of a fan, it will quite know how to cool a processor even overclocked in a case that requires a "Top Flow" cooler, for others others solutions exist 🙂 Advantages - Memory and PCIe compatibility - Very good performance - Excellent finish - 6 year warranty - SAV Noctua Disadvantages - Noisy to the max - Loss of a fan for the same priceas its big brother A big thank you to Jakob from Noctua who allowed me to do this test.
