NH-C14
CPU cooler with a horizontal design, where the heatsink is placed in parallel to the motherboard, has the advantage of helping cooling memory modules and motherboard components such as the voltage regulator transistors and the chipset, but normally do not present great performance. Usually in our tests they show far less cooling performance than models with tower heatsinks.
The NH-C14, however, surprised us, showing an extraordinary cooling performance.
"Probably the two 140-mm fans explains the impressive performance of this cooler: the NH-C14 simply cooled our CPU better than any air cooler we have tested so far. If that wasn't enough, it achieved this extraordinary performance while presenting a far lower noise level than all high-performance coolers we have reviewed to date.
The Noctua NH-C14 is not only a big cooler, it is also a great one." (Rafael Otto Coelho, HardwareSecrets.con)
