The NH-D14 was great, and the NH-D15 is even better, so we can say we're huge fans of this air cooler. If you're thinking of overclocking your CPU, the NH-D15 will do a great job at keeping it cool and being silent. The only issue we'd have with this air...

The Noctua NH-D15 truly is the successor to the venerable NH-D14. The NF-A15 PWM fans operate very quietly, even more so with the low-noise adapters. The heat sink will last you for years to come thanks to the SecuFirm2 mounting kit, with Noctua offering...

Abstract: For years Noctua has been known for their signature tan and brown theme. It made their products easy to spot and that along with their performance really helped promote their brand over the years. When every fan was black, they stuck with their signature...

Abstract: Introduction Here at TBG, we have a thing for coolers. In fact, at this point, we've tested more coolers than any other PC component, with nearly well over 40 under our belt. That means we have a very good sense of what the best models are, and what makes...

Once again since we're all about total transparency i need to point out that Noctua send us their Chromax accessories many months back but due to several changes in the layout of the lab and our sample storage area they got misplaced (fell behind...

A bit pricey when compared to other air heatsinks, May not fit every case due to size
I initially wasn't sure about the NH-D15 SE-AM4. Sure I was aware of Noctua's reputation and that they make some of the best coolers around. I was originally looking to go with liquid cooling, as I wanted to overclock while keeping my temps down. Somethin...
For those who detest Noctua's magnificent Copper and Cream colour scheme (I, personally, love it!), the Chromax range lets you use the high quality Noctua product range, but with your own style.I'm pleased Noctua, while somewhat ceding to the mass market...
Abstract: Let's be honest, both some of the best heatsinks and fans are Noctua's, especially when you are looking for low noise output. The problem is they have been very stuck on their brown and tan color scheme. The benefit is that when you see them you know exac...
