  • El rendimiento de este sistema de refrigeración no tiene una segunda interpretación, simplemente supera con creces a la solución que entrega AMD en sus empaques de procesador, ya que si observan con detención podrán notar que el disipador Noctua logra ...

  • Voila! notre ventirad nous a tout dit, du matériel comme on l'aime, avec une qualité irréprochable comme d' habitude chez Noctua, le dissipateur s'en sort à merveille avec ce core I7 et surtout en silence! Si je dispose un jour d'une carte permettant...

  • Le temps de la conclusion est arrivé et on peut déjà dire au vu des performances que ce ventirad est excellent. Les Performances sont au rendez vous tant avec 2 ventilateurs, qu'avec un seul mais il sera préférable de l'installer sur le haut. Le bundl...

  • Abstract:  En mars dernier, nous avions consacré un comparatif aux ventirads d'entrée de gamme . Si ces solutions remplaçaient avantageusement la solution de refroidissement fournie par Intel sur un Core i7-2600K, elles montraient toutefois leurs limites en cas d'ov...

  • Voici venu pour nous le moment d’établir le bilan de cette expérience. Le NH-C14, ventirad top flow, visant principalement les utilisateurs de PCHC, est mis en concurrence face à trois ventirads tours haut de gamme. À plein régime, il se paie le luxe d...

  • Le NH-C14 va plus loin que le NH-C12 SE 14, avec une plus grande modularité et de meilleures performances thermiques et sonores. Le pré montage des ventilateurs est également un gain de temps, ce qui vient compléter un bilan plus que positif. Toutes le...

  • Performances, Montage ventirad, ventilateurs, Qualité de finition
  • Pas de PWM, Pas de garantie du 2nd ventilateur, Prix
  • Tout d'abord, il convient de saluer l'effort fourni par Noctua pour fournir un ventirad de grande qualité destiné à des configurations non conventionnelles. Le travail de recherche est manifeste et rares sont les modèles top-flow présents sur le marché qu...
