Product Description

NF-A14 PWM header

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.

NF-A14

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.

NF-A14 Flow

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.

SSO2

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.

NF-A14 AVP

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.

I've been a strong supporter for the Noctua REDUX line and have been using them in all situations where ever possible. But, I am currently building a "new" computer in a modern case and wanted to make a statement. So, this computer will be all Noctua "Classic Line" (Brown and Tan) using the best of choices as needed. The NF-A14 PWM meets those needs, having a great mix of high airflow, low noise and high static pressure. it was an obvious choice in my black "Cougar Uniface S" case. The quality of the fan and the startling contrast will make this build a real beauty. I'd post a photo but with 5 different brand fans in it, it sorta looks like a junkyard build. Maybe later when it's complete.To add another point, when we talk about the lifetime of your basic sleeve or ball bearing fan, that time span might run from less than a year to maybe 2 years. Some will claim longer, but I run these systems 24/7 365 days a year - that's 8736 hours of power on time. For those 8 hour a day, every day users that power off, that's only 2912 hours. My systems run 3 times as many hours.I've put other brands cheap fans in cases when people drop off a box of parts and ask me to build them a computer. In several such builds, those fans have failed in as little as 3 months.In all situations where I was able to convince people that "proper" cooling was a more serious part of the system design, I used Noctua fans. It's going on 16 years, dozens of builds and perhaps upwards of 130 Noctua fans and I have NEVER had one up and fail.That being said, I do have one that is about 15 years old - 9 years passed it's warranty date - that needs a push to start every so often. Once started, it runs at full speed and is just as quite as its twin of the same age.But, we are not talking about a few months or a year or two, we are talking about a company that makes fans to last and last and last. And to top it off, it is this very thing that has inspired other companies to stop making cheap trash products and start making something really worth putting their brand on.With my choice of the Noctua NF-A14 PWM and all other Noctua products, I feel that I am investing in more than just an excellent line of products. I am investing in a concept, an ideal if you will, with a company that believes in their products and designs as well as providing exceptional support for the simple to extreme.==========I had to cut up two of their 20cm fan frames to fit in a case that was not made for their fans. But, I was determined and sent them an email about what I was doing with pictures. Their reply was not what I expected: They were excited that someone would go through all this trouble and obvious financial risk to resolve a problem like this.Instead of the usual "You know you are voiding the warranty." and "Our products are not meant to be cut up like that."The reply I got was more like, "Wow, cool!"My kind of people!Note: I have not received, expect to receive or been offered, any kind of compensation for these facts, statements or my opinion.=====Fourth fan recently arrived in excellent condition.All I can say about these products is that while they may seem a bit pricey at first, I've never had to replace one for failing. And, again...we are talking about a period of many years. I'll never use a ball or sleeve bearing fan again.

Tout dans ce ventilateur respire la qualité: de son poids à sa construction et matériaux. Noctua a toujours réaliser des ventilateurs de qualité et je les utilise depuis des années.Pour faire simple, l'un de mes premiers Noctua est toujours vaillant après plus de 7 ans de fonctionnement journalier. Pas un bruit, pas une vibration... Le prix est justifié au vue de la qualité et de la durabilité.

In de omschrijving stond te lezen dat het om een bundel van 4 ventilatoren zou gaan maar dat bleek niet het geval.Ik heb deze terug gestuurd en me geld terug gekregen.Wel zijn dit de allerbeste ventilator(s) die er op dit moment te koop zijn maar helaas wel te duur voor mij nu het blijkt dat je voor bijna €25 per stuk moet betalen.

I recently bought a prebuilt pc which has 1 intake fan and 3 rgb exhaust fans (all 120mm). It was working fine, however last few weeks with summer heat wave here in cali. I could feel my pc getting really hot while gaming and checked temps, cpu was in the high 80s and system temp in the 70s. I have ryzen 5 3600 with stock cooler btw. I felt with the case and fans I had, there wasn't enough intake air coming in fast enough so looked on amazon for an additional fan.While searching I kept seeing noctua fans appearing with high reviews, however the brown colors turned me away. But after reading reviews and people saying it is the best fan to cool and stays quiet. I decided to order one to test it and my front fan location are out of the pc case glass view. In few days I received the fan and wow, I was impressed of the packaging alone. Came in a nice sturdy box and nicely packaged, felt like a premium item. It came with the fan, y splitter, screws, rubber screws, extension cable and a low wattage cable to keep the fan pwm at lower speed if needed.Took the front cover off of my case, had to do some arrangement because 120 mm fan was in the middle slot. I moved that one to the top and noctua to the middle slot. I plugged the y splitter into the motherboard fan header and plugged the noctua fan with the extension cable to the 4pin port and the previous 120 mm fan to the 3pin port of the splitter. Put the case together and powered up and saw all the fans turned on, went into bios to check for pwn and fans connection. Everything worked out great, my temperatures have drops by 5-10 degrees and i don't even hear fan's noise or vibration. When I open my glass side door and just put my hand inside the pc, I can feel a nice flow of cold air blowing towards my gpu and cpu.The cons I would say are the cables are little stiff and takes some time to bend to cable management and the aesthetics. Hopefully one day they will make some rgb fans haha. I always used stock fans or cheap ones I found online, however this is the best quality fan I ever used and would highly recommend.

Really pleased with these fans. I used them to replace the stock fans on my radiator (Corsair H110i GT). They fit great and the cables were just long enough to reach the header extension from the cooler, and if they wouldn't it comes with extensions, which is nice! These fans are at least 50% quieter than the stock fans. They also come with low noise adapters, however if you're using PWM controls, that is pretty redundant, since you can control the fan speeds yourself. The dark brown rubber pieces on the corners are removable if you have fitment issues, but I didn't need to remove them.They do have less static pressure as the stock fans (about half), which concerned me when I bought them. Luckily, the temperatures are pretty much the same (within +- 3C as before, while running at the same or lower RPM's. Even if I had to increase the RPM's, they are still quieter, so I wouldn't mind having to do that either. I also never ran the stock fans even close to their their highest RPM (2000), since they were too damn loud! I am running a pull configuration so maybe it's why I'm not seeing huge differences, but either way it's completely acceptable when you factor in the quietness and durability of these fans.Lastly, the warranty on these fans are simply amazing, 6 years! My stock fans started rattling a little after 2 years of usage, and they weren't run 24/7 or at a high RPM either (about 700). I believe that warranties are made to end at around half the expected life of an item, so these should have a guaranteed life of at least 12 hours, however with their own tests (on their website/specs), they claim to have a mean run time of 17 years before failure! It's nice to know I'll have these for a while, and not have to deal with rattling or buying a new one so soon.

The NF-A14 PWM is the best all-around 140mm fan in the world, even better than its more expensive brother, the iPPC variant.There are a few points that are worth knowing:1: Quiet. Like all tan and brown Noctua products, the NF-A14 PWM is borderline silent in almost all uses. The beauty of this is that it requires no knowledge, or specialized software/hardware, to get it to run appropriately. Simply plug it into a PWM-enabled fan header and let the computer run it. It'll be silent or near silent in almost all conditions.2: Powerful. This fan produces excellent pressure and airflow. Unlike the 120mm fan Noctua equivalents, the 140mm line is designed, in general, for all-around performance, so it works great on heat sinks/rads, intakes and exhausts.3: Position invariable. Almost all fans use sleeve bearings, which in a typical position, where the bearing is perpendicular to the ground (think front case fans), are both quiet and long lasting. However, when placed parallel to the ground (think your power supply fan), they can become noisy and fail prematurely. The SSO2 bearings in the NF-A14 PWM are unaffected by position, making these great for fans that are mounted at the very top of your case or radiator.4: Long lasting. In large due to those superior bearings, these fans will last much, much longer than your computer will be relevant. You will easily get 4 or 5 entire computer builds out of reusing these fans, and given that fan technology doesn't advance at the rate that other computer technology does, you could conceivably reuse the same fans for 10 years or even longer.All in all, the NF-A14 PWM is my favorite fan within Noctua, including their higher speed iPPCs (which I also own) and their smaller fans.
