Review on Noctua NF-P14s Redux-1200 PWM πŸ’¨ 140mm Quiet Fan - Grey (4-Pin) by Nestor Orbita

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Superior quality and performance. You get what you pay for.

Pros: - Quality construction - Extremely quiet - Moves a lot of air - PWM Cons: - Price - Comes with cheap silver screws. I would have preferred rubber screws, but oh well. Honestly, I wouldn't buy this fan unless I needed a fan no deeper than 25mm. I usually go for the Arctic F14, which costs under $10, but it's 27mm deep, so it doesn't fit in the front of my case. I have a Fractal Design Define R4 case with screwless front intake fans. They are held in place by tiny clips and a fan that is too thick will not snap into place. I used to have Fractal fans but they got loud so the only other company I really thought of was going to Noctua. This is my first Noctua product and I am very impressed with the quality of this product. It appears to be very well made and works great. Not only would I buy it for the price if an arctic fan could fit in, but it is what it is. Put this bad guy in, adjust the fan curve in the BIOS and go. The PC is eerily quiet right now. Damn near silent at idle. Everyone loves Noctua and now I understand why. I will update in the future regarding reliability, my Fractal fans seemed to last around 12-18 months before turning into a vibrating nightmare.

  • Electronics
