Noctua NF-A14 PWM, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (140mm, Brown)

Product Information

While the standard NF-A14 is one of the most energy efficient 1500rpm 140mm fans on the market, the industrialPPC version’s three-phase motor provides a further 10% reduction in power consumption when compared at 2000rpm. 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. The anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone reduce the transmission of minimal vibrations and are compatible with all standard screws as well as standard mounting systems or fan brackets used with CPU coolers. As for the thickness (depth) of the fan, generally 25mm (1 inch) is by far the most common depth, although smaller fans can have shallower depths such as 15mm or even 10mm.

Both cables are fully sleeved and a 4-pin y-cable allows to connect a second NF-F12 fan to the same PWM fan header for automatic control. To complement the coloured anti-vibration pads included with the fans, users can purchase chromax line NA-SAV2 anti-vibration mounts that enable the convenient, quick and vibration-free installation of fans in standard mounting holes for case fans. Noctua's AAO (Advandced Acoustic Optimization) frames have integrated vibration buffers as well as a stepped inlet area (Stepped Inlet Design) and an inner microstructure (Inner Surface Microstructures), which enable even better performance/noise efficiency.

Swap has an MTBF specification of over 150,000 hours and comes with a full 6-year manufacturer's warranty. Gen - 12700k CPU with Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black cooler and 4 x Noctua Fans keeps my system at 27c at Idle,.

This problem also occurs if you try to use an in-line fan speed controller such as the one made by Gelid.

Thanks to its thoroughgoing aerodynamic optimisations, the NF-A14 provides higher static pressure and an even better airflow/noise ratio than its much acclaimed predecessor. This means that it is not only highly dust resistant but also withstands dripping water equivalent to 3mm rainfall per minute. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted reliability and six year manufacturer’s warranty, the NF-A14 industrialPPC is an ideal choice for highly demanding applications that require superior flow rates and ultimate dependability.We would generally recommend using the ULN resistor cable for best results in almost all circumstances. The only downside is their colour scheme but If you're like me and prefer function over form, you can't get any better.

With SSO2, the back magnet sits closer to the fan axis for even better stabilization, resulting in further improved precision and durability. Optional coloured anti-vibration mounts - To complement the coloured anti-vibration pads included with the fans, users can purchase chromax line NA-SAV2 anti-vibration mounts that enable the convenient, quick and vibration-free installation of fans in standard mounting holes for case fans. New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . It will use voltage control to them, but get as accurate as you can with PWM connection (since most mobos only offer pure fan control on CPU header anyway).

Had two of these fans now, I RMA'd the first one as when screwed into the case it produced a horrible humming noise. 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. The size of fan you need will generally be determined by the size of the fan fitting position in your PC case.

With SSO2, the rear magnet sits closer to the fan axis for even better stabilization, resulting in further improved precision and durability. Thanks to a special varnish coating that covers the motor and PCB, the NF-A14 industrialPPC complies with the ingress protection rating IP52. The NF-A14 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's renowned, time-tested SSO bearing.

Quality fan The fan is presented in a very smart box, and from the outset you can tell that it is a quality component. Installation is easy and modular, I'm using mine to replace the Corsair fans I have and it did make it quieter for no loss in performance. For an even higher cooling performance on current high-end CPU coolers, the width was expanded to 150 mm and supplemented by advanced aerodynamic design measures such as flow acceleration channels, which again improve the silent performance.
