Smooth Commutation Drive 2
The latest version of Noctua's Smooth Commutation Drive system ensures smooth operation by eliminating torque variations and switching noise. This makes the fan very quiet, even at close range.
Nine-blade design for increased pressure
Specially designed for environments with high pressure requirements, such as CPU fans, water-cooled radiators or cases with narrow ventilation grilles, the NF-P14's nine-blade design delivers high pressure and high flow.
Vortex-Control Notches
The Vortex-Control Notches, which are unique to Noctua, disperse the vortexes developing at the tip of the blade and thus spread the sound emissions over a wider frequency range. This feature helps to generate a sound that is more pleasing to the human ear.
Colour customisation with NA-SAVP1 silentblocks
The fan frame can be fitted with NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration mounts from the Noctua chromax line. Available in black, red, blue, white, green and yellow, these dampers provide micro-vibration damping, but they also offer an undeniable additional advantage: they allow you to match the fan to the most popular colour themes as you see fit!
Exclusive PWM circuit with SCD
Allowing for full automatic PWM speed control, the fan uses the brand new exclusive NE-FD1 PWM IC which incorporates Smooth Commutation Drive (SCD) technology. By promoting less abrupt torque pulses, SCD eliminates PWM switching noise, allowing the fan to remain quieter at low speeds.
SSO-Bearing
By combining a hydrodynamic bearing with a complementary magnet, SSO-Bearing technology greatly enhances the fan's performance, while providing exceptional long-term quietness and reliability.
Optional accessories
With anti-vibration seals, 3/4-pin adapters and Y-cables, this range of Noctua fans is equipped with a wide range of accessories to meet the demands of your configuration.
6 year manufacturer's warranty
Noctua fans are renowned for their reliability. The Redux series of fans operate for up to 150,000 hours and come with a 6-year manufacturer's warranty.

    Silent performances

    Very good performance, while being quieter than the BeQuiet it replaced. The grey is also more neutral than Noctua's traditional brown.

    Noctua saves on its customers?

    This product has a very short connection cable!
    On my medium tower with the ATX board, I could not record the fan. I had to dismantle the whole ATX board and run the cable right under the motherboard.
    All this - because Noctua saves a few centimetres of the connecting cable! :-/ (adding 10 to 20cm more would not be luxury).

    It's quiet, of course. Other brands too!
    Considering all the problems I've had with this damn short cable, I'm not ready to excuse the grey fan colours anymore! Why not do black, why always look for the difference with other brands?

    The packaging where the fan is housed is made of moulded plastic. Paper cut would have been more ecological and classy! So another negative point for this "reputable" brand.

    In short, if I had to choose again, it would not be this brand!

    Noctua in all its glory

    Excellent price/performance ratio. Good static pressure and airflow performance. From 80% of its maximum speed you start to hear it.

    Small downside: Noctua could have provided anti-vibration pads like on the NF-A14 or the Chroma range.
    I don't take away any points from its very low price for the performance provided.

    Does its job

    Mounted on inwin 101 case.
    3 fans, 2 of which are driven by the gtx 1080.
    My 1080 reaches max 60 degrees despite the 32 degrees in the room.
    The fans do not exceed 70% at the moment which makes it not very noisy.
    I'm not sure how much I'd like to see the system run, but I'm sure it's a good idea to keep it running.
