NH-C14S
Refreshing the NH-C14 into this new NH-C14S may have seemed like a lot to do about nothing in the beginning, but by now, you have to be seeing the benefits this cooler brings to the table. I mean, look back at those charts; the NH-C14S is as efficient as the NH-D14. Opting to go with just one fan is a ballsy move in our minds, as we all know that a second fan can greatly increase the cooler's efficiency and drop temperatures, but even so, Noctua pulled a rabbit out of the hat.
Taking what was a very decent cooler originally, rethinking it from top to bottom by restructuring and bracing it, a new fin design and density, and with only one fan shipped with this version, you have the choice of how you want to cool your system, and it also offers a cooler that can go from full-tower cases down into Micro-ATX towers and even some SFF designs.
"What really takes the cake for a cooler such as this is that on top of the top tier performance levels, on top of the new much beefier cooler design, it only produces 32db of noise; in most instances, your PSU and GPU at load will be noisier." (Chad Sebring, TweakTown.com)
