High retail price
Installation procedure takes some time
But is straight forward
Due to product design you cannot install a second fan
Although the price is a pro
$70 for a CPU cooler can also be seen as a con to some buyers
Pricey
Color scheme might be a con for some

Once again, Noctua have produced a pair of products that blows away the competition in every respect. The smaller C12P is easily one of the best coolers I've ever used, and while being quite expensive its passable. Its bigger brother takes the perform...

For once, it's great to see a company cut corners, and with the NF-P14 FLX 140mm fan that's exactly what Noctua have done. With its circular fan frame and 120mm fan mounting they've managed to produce a 140mm fan that is much more compact than...

Performance is limited by its design, []Can't compete with most tower heatsinks
The new NH-C12P SE14 is a nice refresh to the old design. By simply implementing the new fan to the proven design, Noctua have improved the product by quite a bit, especially considering that the cost will remain the same. Although it may not be toppi...

El Noctua NH-C12P SE14 no es un cooler para cualquiera. Su elevado precio lo vuelve prohibitivamente caro para un cooler de dimensiones medias, a la gran mayoría de las personas le funciona perfectamente bien un cooler de los más baratos y quienes se c...
Después de todo, Noctua nos sigue ofreciendo una suerte de unidades orientadas al alto rendimiento. Los resultados están dentro de lo esperado, si bien el nicho de mercado de estos dos disipadores no está claro. El NH-C12P SE14 es un ventilador con pre...
Noctua nos vuelve a ofrecer un disipador con calidad Premium. En este caso el objetivo del Noctua NH-C12P SE14 cambia respecto a sus "hermanos", pasando de la búsqueda de la máxima eficiencia, a la máxima compatibilidad. Ya que los disipadores de torre...
Adoptant un nouveau design, le NH-C12P SE14 permet de combiner, avec brio, performances et encombrement réduit. Son ventilateur de 140 mm et son rad performant en font un produit silencieux au design attrayant et au bundle des plus fournis. Il conviend...
Il est bien difficile de départager les deux ventirads Noctua. Le NH-U12P SE2, produit déjà testé dans nos colonnes, confirme ses excellentes performances tandis que NH-C12P SE14, challenger de ce comparatif, affiche une bonne capacité de refroidissem...
