Premium low-noise 140 mm case fan that combines incredible reliability, low noise levels, and no unwanted vibrations. This model continues the tradition of Noctua’s acclaimed products, maintaining leadership in its segment. Positioned as a high-end product aimed at demanding users and enthusiasts who value silence, impeccable aerodynamics, and exceptional reliability.
The Noctua NF-A14 PWM fan frame complies with the proprietary AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimization) standard. The square shape and 140 mm mounting holes make this model ideal for use on large liquid-cooling radiators or as an upgrade for cases. Thanks to well-thought-out aerodynamic solutions, the impeller generates a focused, powerful airflow with low noise. Speed control uses the proprietary NE-FD1 controller, providing a wide speed range from 500 RPM to 1500 RPM. It can work with any current motherboard models or with the NA-FC1 PWM controller (sold separately).

Written on some websites: 1500-1650 RPM, don't worry if it's more or less, it's not a defect, but our domestic marketers don't want to use their brains and conscience and visit the official manufacturer's website. Let me explain: The manufacturer states that the RPM is +-10%. My fans personally reach 1300 RPM at maximum. The fans are very high quality, well assembled, they don't rattle, and blow air in a straight line rather than all over the place. Yes, they are expensive, but trust my experience, it's better to buy a good product once than questionable ones multiple times. At maximum RPM, they are quite loud, but who needs maximum RPM anyway - I have no idea) At 1000-1100 RPM they are almost silent, and if you're not actively listening, you won't even guess they are there. Included: an extender, a splitter, a resistor that reduces RPM by 300, so 1300 with the resistor becomes 1000, 4 metal screws + 4 silicone ones. I bought them to improve the cooling on my graphics card, and they fulfill their task completely. Installed them and forgot, nothing rattles. Quality, equipment., Warranty - 6 years. High but justified price use Noctua NF-A14 PWM month or more i recommend it should buy |
