NH-C14
With actual performance, the NH-C14 is really amazing. You don’t get the exact same performance as the monster NH-D14, but it’s only off by a few degrees. This is the same price as the NH-D14, so it only really makes sense to get the NH-C14 if you want the benefits I mentioned earlier. This did perform exceptionally, however. For me, at least, I didn’t see much of a difference between this and the NH-D14. I have since switched cases, but that wouldn’t have made much of a difference; perhaps only one or two degrees. I applaud Noctua on not crippling this model because of it’s size, and I can say that it is one of the best Air CPU Coolers on the market, just a bit lower than the NH-D14.
"All in all, I would highly recommend this to anyone that has space confinements, whether that be with the case size, big RAM heatsinks or a desire to cool some of the components on the motherboard. What you get is a really amazing package with a ton of future support, and some very useful accessories inside. The overall quality is amazing, as always, and that makes the Noctua NH-C14 really shine." (Shaun Hammond, RipTen.com)
