Noctua NF-A14 PWM, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (140mm, Brown)

I bought three of these as intake fans. I run a 3080 ti and 11700K OCd so I need some serious fresh air to keep everything cool. These are amazing as intake fans. They really move some air and are only audible when they are running at full speed. Even then they arent super loud. I dont mind the brown color scheme and I dont care about RGB, only performance.

Does the job

a great brand, a great fan.

Whisper quiet. Cant tell if PC is on sometimes. Did not use low rpm adapter. Running in a bottom mount pull configuration. Replaced a:XIGMATEK AOS XAF-F1453 140mm ( 800 - 1300 RPM 90.3 CFM). Running in conjunction with 2 NF-F12 PWMs on Corsair H100i cpu radiator and 3 case NF-S12As. Great combo for quiet/moderate airflow. Cant gauge temp change on my video cards due to forgetting to benchmark temps with old case fans (Antec 1600 RPM 56 CFM basic fans) and XIG. fan...but if memory serves...temps went up 3 degrees on video cards.

Received items next day as promised by Amazon. Items functioning normally and as advertised. Items were more expensive than the average fans of this type. Original packaging looked more expensive/professional than needed to be. This would mean 1/3 to 1/2 of the retail price went into packaging and advertising for this item. Professional packaging could have been more generic which would bring the retail price down much lower.

Not as quiet as the BeQuiet! Silent Wings fan, but still acceptable. Also, the fan power connector is rather short if you have a full tower, however, Noctua does include an extension cable.

thee best from austria

The thing is fantastically quiet! I installed this on a NZXT Kraken X40 radiator, and Im loving it. The fan is so quiet, I can hear the pump for the cooler!

Replaced my NZXT 700i case fans with one of these and 3 of the 120. WOW these are quiet and push air, They are ugly to the highest level but work awesome

Ive used many PC fans before, this has to be the best fan I have ever used. The packaging and presentation is phenomenal and the quality of the fan is amazing. The only downside is that its a little bit pricey, but you are getting your moneys worth. It comes with an extender, splitter and silent cord. Noctua puts other brands to shame, S-tier fans.
