NH-D14
As many of you expected, Noctua's giant managed to outperform the competition. Our last time's leader, the Cogage True Spirit showed 4 degrees worse results than the NH-D14 at full load with the overclocked processor, which is really considerable. The difference between the coolers remains not that obvious when the heat output is smaller, yet the full potential of a heatsink can be seen with the highest load. The results of the heatsink working with the fans connected via the LNA adapter are also impressive. The NH-D14 does not lose that much performance even with the fans spinning at even lower RPMs.
"The Noctua NH-D14 is an amazing cooler. Of course, the great thermal performance is highly related to the massive size of the heatsink, but Noctua was aiming to make a very high performing CPU cooler and they succeeded - the NH-D14 is definitely among the top air coolers in the market today."
