As aftermarket CPU coolers continue a trend of “bigger is badder”, manufacturers must constantly tweak their designs to ensure compatibility across multiple platforms. Perhaps no one knows this better than Austrian company Noctua. Within the last year we’ve reviewed three coolers from them, the NH-D14, the C12P SE14 and the U9B SE2, and two of those feature their signature NF-P14 140mm fan. If you thought finding room to put one 140mm fan on a CPU cooler wasn’t challenging enough, today we take a look at Noctua’s latest creation, the NH-C14, and see how they manage to squeeze two of them on there.

Our review of the same can now be found here.


Well they kept that one quiet, didn?t they? The 6990 was yet ANOTHER launch from AMD that had no publicity whatsoever. Cast your mind back to the 6800 and 6950/6970 launches and I bet even then you can’t remember much about them. There?s a very good reason why, and it?s all down to AMD themselves who don?t believe in fancy, extravagant launches but yet prefer to just release a product with no big bang or anything. We’re still unsure as to why they do this, but i’m sure they have their reasons behind it.


Corsair had great success with Asetek’s low cost liquid coolers back in 2009 and while they have moved onto new pastures, Antec’s Kühler H20 620 has slipped into the market with a unique take on the liquid cooling concept.
