Noctua NF-A14 PWM chromax.black.swap, Ventilateur Silencieux Haut de Gamme, 4 Broches (140 mm, Noir)

Je recommande ce produit, permet une finition irréprochable.
De bonne qualité seulement ou sans les accessoires de la sérieux classique comme le y, le prolongateur etc...

Bien penser à régler la courbe de ventilation pour un silence optimal

Bonjour,
ventilateurs installés dans un Phanteks Enthoo 719. Les processeurs chauffant beaucoup et rapidement désormais, les ventilateurs étaient un peu bruyants au départ. Mais il suffit de prendre son temps, de régler dans le bios le paramétrage des ventilateurs, de leur définir une courbe de hausse en fonction de la température. Au final, on obtient des configurations puissantes, qui ne chauffent pas ou peu, le tout dans un silence très appréciable.
Comme toujours, ventilateurs chers, surtout lorsqu'on démarre de zéro dans un boitier livré sans ventilateurs, mais la qualité est toujours là, même si une lecture attentive nous apprend une nouvelle fois que le produit est fabriqué en Chine.

Ventilateur très silencieux et faisant ce qu'on lui demande.

Ventilateurs de boitiers installés par 3 pour ventiler un moyen tour, deux en aspiration devant et un en extraction sur le dessus en complément du radiateur AIO arrière.
Très silencieux mais efficaces pour le refroidissement global

Maigre contenu, juste le minimum social

J'ai reçu ce ventilateur très bien emballé comme tout produit Noctua qui se respecte.

Dommage cependant que ce qui est à l'intérieur se contente du strict minimum.
Vous aurez le ventilateur, 6 types de caoutchoucs de plusieurs couleurs pour mettre sur les coins ainsi que 4 vis en métal et c'est tout.

Au prix demandé ils auraient pu mettre les 4 amortisseurs (tiges) en caoutchouc et leur système omnijoint qu'ils mettent généralement (même sur des modèles moins chers ils sont souvent fournis).

Un peu trop cher pour ce qu'il propose. Et puis bon ce n'est plus la qualité Noctua que j'ai connu avant on voit bien qu'ils les fabriquent en Chine. La finition est moins bonne.

Performance maximale.

Un ventilateur très silencieux que l'on entend jamais. Il présent une pression et un flux d'air très conséquent ce qui permet de refroidir mais également de générer assez de flux d'air pour le mettre soit en entrée soit en sortie.
Clairement un très très bon ventilateur. Par contre a haut régime il peut être bruyant, mais en soit s'il tourne a haut régime c'est que votre ordinateur est clairement en souffrance et qu'il y a un soucis de flux d'air.

EDIT : J'en ai finalement acheté un deuxième 4-5 mois plus tard. Et que dire à part que j'en suis ravi, toujours aussi silencieux et surtout très performant. On notera cependant qu'en vitesse max il est toujours plus bruyant qu'un NF A12 ou des silent wing de Be Quiet sauf qu'il n'y a pas vraiment de comparaison valable étant donné qu'aucun des deux que j'ai cité précédemment ne peuvent donner un flux d'air et une pression statique aussi puissante.

Je conseil à tous ceux qui désire allier style, sobriété, performance que ce soit en pression statique ou flux d'air, qui conviendra parfaitement en entrée ou sortie de boitier avec un bruit très contenu.

Des ventilateurs d'exception

J'ai monté deux de ces ventilos en extraction en haut du boitier.

Excellent airflow, un peu bruyant à 1500 RPM mais pour moi le ronronnement n'est pas un problème: ceux qui aime le silence devront réduire la vitesse. En pratique je gagne 5 degrés CPU en burn et 2-3 degrés sur les autres valeurs: j'avais deux 120 Fractal Design à la place auparavant donc rien à dire: c'est du Noctua, ça marche très bien.

Sinon, bundle très complet (rallonge de 30cm en 4 pin, multiples "coins" colorés à poser selon sa config), avec en prime la rapidité de la livraison ! Que du positif. Tellement que je viens d'en prendre un 3e en 120 pour remplacer le Cooler Master...et que je me pose la question d'en prendre d'autres !

Excellent !

Vraiment parfait !

En plus d'être silencieux c'est un ventilateur vraiment performant, malgré la chaleur d'en ce moment j'ai perdu pas mal de degré depuis l'installation, je le recommande vivement.

Still the best Fan Maker on the market but prices are getting silly...

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 9 septembre 2020

First off, I would consider myself a long time fan of Noctua products. Have used them for 12+ years and never had an issue with a cooler or fan - not once.
To add, the after sales service and RMA that Noctua provide is fantastic..

I decided to try out some of the new Noctua Chromax fans for the hell of it.
Bought four of them and added them to my Phanteks Enthoo Luxe case - 2 in the front, 1 exhaust and 1 on top..

As usual, the fans are the high quality you would expect from Noctua fans. These Noctua NF-A14 PWM chromax are exactly the same as the Noctua NF-A14 PWM fans - exchanging the Beige/Brown for all Black.
Quality fans.

The Good -
- Quieter than the stock fans.
- Have reduced temps (2c using P95 Blend and IBT).
- Fantastic build quality (as expected).
- 6 Year Warranty
- Interchangeable Corner Anti-Vibration pads - slew of different colours

The Bad -
- Price - compared to the original NF-A14 - paid €3.50 more per fan.
- Accessories gone - these new chromax fans don't include the Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.), 4-Pin Y-Cable, 30cm Extension Cable and 4 Vibration-Compensators - that we always got with the original versions.
- New cable system - the wire that comes out from the fan is only 1-2cms long and then goes into a connector. You get a 30cm Cable with the fan that connects directly into the connector.
However, I have 2 issues with this -
a. the connection point so close to the actual fan is cumbersome and gets in the way and
b. you have lost 30cms in length in comparison to the original NF-A14 that came with a spare 30 cms extension cable.
- Missing Vibration corner pads - you only get "4 Anti-Vibration Corner Pads" of each colour provided.
That means that if you select say RED - you can only have it on one side of the fan. This is unacceptable imo. It meant I had to buy a pack of "Noctua NA-SAVP1 chromax.red ANTI-VIBRATION PADS" at a price of €11.80 from Noctuas ebay site. They were sold out everywhere else. The pack comes with 16 of the pads meaning I could have each corner of the fan with pads now all red. When you consider that all the previous Brown fans came with 8 (each corner) on each fan, this is totally unacceptable.

Note, I didn't have to purchase NA-SEC1 4-pin ext cables as had a few boxes from previous builds but needed to use two of them to extend the cables on the front fans. Therefore I would recommend you measure the distance between the fan location and the Fan Header on the motherboard. If using a HUB at the back of the Case, you should be fine.

In conclusion - I think the awe and worship I had for Noctua is fading. The fans are still the best fans on the market in my opinion but this scrimping on accessories and leaving you short on corner vibration pads has left a bad taste for me.
Also, I really don't like the new cable connection system at all. Its not as clean when placing the fans and cables.

Usual quality from Noctua.....However!

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 14 mai 2021

I purchased 2 new additional Chromax fans to go into my new case which is a Be Quiet Silent Base 802 non windowed version, I already had 2 beige/brown fans and a U 12S air cooler so I know excatly how good they are. While building my system for this case I wanted an additional 2 fans giving me 3 x 140mm intakes and 1 x 140mm exhaust (for now, further testing needed) as the Be Quiet ones were their cheap slow 3 pin rubbish and only 2 x intake and 1 x exhaust

Noctua fans are not cheap but with a 6 year warranty and supberb quiet performance I think they are worth it as they are premium. However these fans are the same in terms of performance as the beige/brown ones but black with the lovely little colour pads to make your system your own in terms of colour theme even though my new case was not a tempered glass version. They were at the time the same price as the standard colour versions.

I wish I had just bought the standard ones due to 2 reasons. You only get 4 of the same colour pads and you really should get 8, yes this would bump the cost up a little but you are already paying a lot for a fan so a few extra pence is nothing. My main problem is the cable length.......Noctua, what were you thinking! These are far too short even with the extensions on, I had to play around with positioning just to get them to reach the PWM fan hub supplied with the case which I really wanted to use. The exhaust fan (Chromax) had to be plugged into a motherboard header as it simply would not reach the fan hub while the beige ones had no issues at all and plenty to spare with the same extesion cables. This case is big but far from the really big cases.

I may add another exhaust fan to the top of the case and again will be the same 140mm size but it will definitely be a beige/brown one.

Decent build quality but a few things to note for the OCD inclined...

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 24 décembre 2020

First off, the build quality is great which you can tell as soon as you open the box. There really doesn't seem to be a fan out there that can compete with Noctua in terms of build quality and performance. I have even decided to purchase a second one even though I dislike some of the design choices, these being:

1) As many others have said, the fan connector / cable is too short. I can see why they might have done this i.e. the user can just add the appropriate extenders to get the desired length (resulting in no excess cable) but this brings me to the second issue.

2) As most towers have a transparent side to see all the gubbins, and due to the way that these fans will most likely be positioned, the connector is on the visible side of the fan. Therefore, if you want the "Chromax" branding the right way up, you have to route the cable extender (which they provide) along the bottom or top of the fan to connect it to your motherboard. As the cable has to travel that extra distance, it's most likely that one will not be enough for most people. I'll be buying an extender pack but this is an additional ~£9. Alternatively, if you like disorder and chaos, you can connect it directly to your motherboard with no cable management effort whatsoever - but that would be uncalled for!

All that being said, these issues weren't enough to stop me from getting another one. Would still recommend.

Good fan poor cable attachment

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 14 août 2021

I bought this to replace an existing Noctua fan which was a 1200 speed fan, these are the 1500 rated ones. I am not impressed by the updates to this newer fan. The cable connection is now terrible and as other reviewers have stated, the cable length is now even shorter than previous version. The issue I had is the connector cable is so short that I struggled to fit the fan in the front of the Fractul Define R5 case and get the cable in the right orientation so it can be connected.
In general the tiny short cable to connector and then connector and short length of cable to then attach to power connector is a poor design. They should have stuck with the single wired and long length of cable with pin connector on the end. Considering these are premium fans I think the cost is no longer worth it and I can't recommend purchasing a Noctua fan with this type of connector setup.
Must be plenty of other fans out there for half the price which give a longer and easier length of cable to work with, very disappointed and won't be buying any more of these.
The performance is good as expected and the noise is not too bad compared to the 1200 RPM fan it replaced, but the hassle in swapping it over has made it a poor experience and seems like Noctua are trading on their previous good name of high performance and basically giving the customer a worse experience and making the product cheaper. Not good and very annoyed and disappointed.

Compromise

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 30 janvier 2022

The key benefits of these Noctua fans are their great airflow for the amount of noise, and the reputation for superb engineering which promises long years of use.
The downsides are the cable length which is really badly thought out, and the price which is not justified given that the alternatives are so much closer in performance these days.
I still bought them - 6 of them in fact! And I don't regret my purchase. My PC temperatures are way lower, and when computer is under load and the fans spin up the noise level is acceptable. But fitting them was a lot more difficult than it needed to be because of those short cables and bulky connectors, and the cost means I'll be waiting somewhat longer before I am able to buy the next upgrade!
Noctua, if you're reading this - extend the cable to 150mm beyond the fan before the connector, and drop the price by 20%. You'll sell as many as you can make, and your review scores will max out I'm sure!
