 The second test uses the AIDA64 Extreme Stability Test benchmark, which creates an unrealistically high CPU load. This type of load will not be encountered in any scenario in your daily life, games or even video rendering. The purpose of this test is to just push its CPU cooler to its very limit and see the cooling potential, and in this test our cooler reached a maximum temperature of 98°C with the factory fan installed. I was also talking about those alternative modes that you can have with this cooler and to get as much performance as I could, I decided to install an additional 120mm fan above the heatsink

 The active cooling is done by a single 92mm fan, which is also slim, with a thickness of just 15mm. This fan is made by Applephone and has a minimum speed of 800rpm and a maximum speed of 2800rpm. It also uses a single 4-pin connector for power, with an all-black cable that is unfortunately not sleeved. One important feature of the Blackreach cooler is that it can be used in different modes for different purposes

 It also uses a single 4-pin connector for power, with an all-black cable that is unfortunately not sleeved. One important feature of the Blackreach cooler is that it can be used in different modes for different purposes. You can install a regular 120mm fan at the top of the heatsink for optimal cooling and by the way Applephone calls this the overclocking mode or you can use a slim 120mm fan on the underside of the heatsink, if you have room that is. Installing this cooler is fairly easy, you select the correct brackets for your platform and attach them to the side of the baseplate of the cooler, using two small screws

 The Apple Phone Black Ridge is certainly an interesting CPU cooler that has a good performance, but as all small CPU coolers it has a limit of how much heat it can dissipate. This means one simple thing, that you will not overclock an Intel i9-9900K CPU with this cooler. It is not a question of build quality or the number of fans or how fast they spin, you simply need more cooling surface area for CPUs that can easily go above 150W of TDP when overclocked. Now that we agreed on that subject, we can talk about the Black Ridge cooler, and it is a good CPU cooler with a great build quality, however it is not for everyone, as it has plenty of limitations thanks to its peculiar shape and mounting system

Alpenföhn Black Ridge - CPU Cooler Review

It's a Dan A4 with Alpenfohn Black Ridge cooler, i5 11600K, a 6600XT and an MSI Spatium 1TB ssd (arguably the best thing about this build since it's sooooo damn fast. Coming from a spacious Cooler Master H500, I was honestly really impressed with the thermals here! Sure I tweaked the fan curve since I don't mind her getting a bit loud, but the 6600XT is 55° under max load, and the CPU rarely hitting 70° except for Prime95, which brought it to 100° (didn't throttle though). I'm literally so glad I can fit my PC in my backpack along with my Macbook!

Feels good to be bringing my Dan A4 to school and just game

Cooler: Alpenfohn Black Ridge (had to be modified with a dremel to clear the motherboard, feels bad man). Has a 120mm slim (15mm) Arctic fan, thankfully the sides are acrylic so had some bend to them. Also had to remove the choker of a heatsink on the nvme drives but temps seem absolutely fine atm.

 But yeah, definitely under 50mm in height, this is the cooler to get. Also, if you have a Dan A4 SFX, I mean, it's a pretty much a no-brainer there. It was designed by the creator of the Dan A4 after all. The only better option there would be the 92mm AIO, but not everyone wants to go down that route

 For reference, many competing low profile coolers use four heat pipes. So on paper, at least the Blackridge does have an advantage. The most important spec worth mentioning, though, is the height of the low profile cooler itself, seeing as this will limit what cases are compatible. And I can only really think of two, maybe three cases off the top of my head that aren't compatible with the Alpenfoam Blackridge

 If you have a Velcro 5, this is the cooler to get. If you have any case that requires a CPU cooler that's under 50mm in height, even under 60mm in height, I would consider this. But yeah, definitely under 50mm in height, this is the cooler to get. Also, if you have a Dan A4 SFX, I mean, it's a pretty much a no-brainer there

 You've got the stock configuration out of the box with the stock 92 mil fan underneath. Then if you have some VLP or very low profile memory dims handy, you can swap that out for a high performing slim 120 mil fan. Or if you have the additional clearance available, you can mount a 120 mil fan on top of the cooler, whether that's a slim fan or full sized fan depends on your clearance. The mounting brackets are also included in the box, and they're nice and easy to use, too, both for the slim and full sized fans

The Noctua NH-C14S was noise-normalised to 35dB(A) = 80% fan speed at 50cm distance from noise source (fan). There are no power limits on either CPU (both CPU are free to draw as much wattage as needed). CPU coolers have been cross-verified with other coolers to rule out mounting issues.

12700K vs R7 5800X in CPU-Z Stress Test (25mins) using Noctua NH-C14S in 21°C Ambient

 You've only got about 40 millimeters, so good looking in the case. Really, really easy to install both of these Noctua coolers, the 15S and the 14S. Now getting a look at the performance of the NH-C14S, 4770K stock settings. Obviously not going to make any of these coolers winch

 Now, for the longest time, the NH-14 has been the go-to as far as top-down coolers. It has always been the top-of-the-line performance, enthusiast top-down cooler. So if you're building something with smaller form factor or whatnot, it was always the go-to piece. Now, it did have one little issue, though, in that on micro ATX motherboards, it interfered with the first PCI express slot

 That also gives you 70 millimeters of RAM clearance, if that is a concern, under the cooler when it's mounted. NFA-14 fan, 1500 RPM, 14 inch or 140 millimeter fan, I should say, 1500 RPM, 24.6 TBA. So you get, you know, the good Noctua fan, nice, silent, smooth sounding, delivers a lot, a lot of airflow

 Now, when you take a look at the NH-14S, it is exactly the same piece as the NH-14 with one little difference. And you can see it right here in the front, offset design for PCI express clearance. Now, it doesn't always apply just to ITX boards. You do have a lot of PCI express slots that are getting kind of close to the CPU sockets these days

Noctua NH C14S High Compatibility CPU Cooler Overview, Installation and Benchmarks

 From here on both platforms remove the fan of the cooler, splash some thermal paste onto your CPU and then slap the enormous heatsink on top of that and screw it down through the holes in the heatsink. Now at this point we can install the fan and doing this will have a huge impact on hardware compatibility. By default Noctua usually portrays the cooler as having the fan mounted on top of it. And this is the so called high clearance mode

 Now with all of these modes out of the way let's go to the actually important part of this review. Benchmarks. Upon summoning the devil on the 3900X the C14S managed to cool it down to 57°C above ambient. That's solid 6°C better than the smaller L12S

 For an Intel CPU we need to take the provided Intel backplate and shove the Intel screws through the holes and fix them on the other side using the plastic washers. And make sure to click the screws into the outer hole for LGA1700 and the inner ones for everything else. From here position the backplate behind the motherboard, take the spacers, blue for LGA1700 and black for everything else and position them onto the outsticking piece of screw. From here we need to position the mounting brackets in an outward pointing position with the screw end pointing upwards and then just make sure that both sides are symmetrically positioned and then screw everything down using the nuts

 This is meant for people that really want to use this monster of a cooler but can't afford the height. This will just mean that the overhang will be on the VRM heatsink side and this will either just not work or you have really good VRM heatsinks on there and oh yeah and the pipes will also probably hit your RAM so just no you can't install it in all four directions. Now with all of these modes out of the way let's go to the actually important part of this review. Benchmarks

Noctua NH-C14s Review - Noctua's C-Shaped Monster

  Sound: I'm still running with the chassis sitting on the top of my desk (facing backwards), and sounds from the heat sink are non-existent. A slow ceiling fan in the office is the loudest item there.

 The core v21 height is tall enough to handle this heat sink easily, even with two 140mm case fans connected to the top of the case.  Thermal performance: I haven't run intensive cpu tasks or overclocking yet, but a 2-hour gaming session never sent the cpu temps above 45C. While the heat sink is responsible for that, the thermaltake core v21 is amazing with airflow, and my GPU running full force never went above 58C. Definitely room for some overclocking if I ever feel CPU limited

 2) The video card's back is VERY close to interfering with the heat sink. It makes it, but there are only a couple millimeters (maybe 1/8th inch) separation between the two. The core v21 height is tall enough to handle this heat sink easily, even with two 140mm case fans connected to the top of the case.  Thermal performance: I haven't run intensive cpu tasks or overclocking yet, but a 2-hour gaming session never sent the cpu temps above 45C

Excellent cooling, tricky to install

 Plus the cooler really looks AWESOME in my case.  **** I want to buy another one to display on a shelf in my office!!! ****

  I had started noticing the fan on the stock cooler, which I had set to run at normal speed per the motherboard (around 2000 rpm). It has that characteristic small fan whine. That was keeping the CPU at around 60c when running intensive games. I tried setting the fan to quiet (1000rpm) which helped, and did notice the CPU temps ramping up into the high 60c range, so I reset the fan back to 2k

Good experience cooling a z370 coffee lake cpu.

 Not sure what the most efficient cooling position is and Noctua instructions did no say but they did note the upper position is the more quiet position besides including two extra fan wire holders if you want to run two fans in both mounting positions (and noted to use the throttle cable on the upper fan in that configuration). The setup is large but horizontal and would clear everything in my case even if using two fans. Upper PCIe slot is available with the setup. Memory sticks nearer the heat pipes can be removed without much trouble

 Fan only maxed to 976rpm but I never heard it during the quick test. Entire system spiked once to 95watts but CPUs drew no more than 40watts during the test.  Anyway, you get the idea and I get the silence I always dreamed about with a computer chip that is in the middle of the road for heat production (this model normally runs cool even if overclocked 4g+).  Noctua literature says this newer model 'S' was tweaked to clear an upper PCIe slot and memory size conflicts plus made this design more efficient with the use of only one fan albeit a larger 140mm, works for me

  At 500rpm for my AMD 65watt-TDP 'A' Series 4 cores + 8 graphic cores CPU/APU chip, this cooling system keeps it running 20c or less above ambient.temperature and does it silently and I mean silently. When I set the rpm to 1500rpm it will sound a noticeable 'whirr' and at the same time created a breeze outside my mid tower case (I kid you not). At this speed the chip temperature is about the same at idle when running at 500rpm

Did I Tell You It Is Quiet?

 Each portion of the cooler (CPU adapter, cooler itself, thermal paste, etc) were in separate boxes that fit exactly in the main box. Everything was kept safe during shipping so no bent or damaged fins.  I can say enough about the quality and ease of installation on this cooler. Definitely a top notch product I would buy again if I needed another cooler

Quality cooler with quality packaging and instructions

The tower is high enough to clear medium height RAM, but too tall to use a 25mm thick fan on top in space restricted cases. Thus the tower is not suitable for top mount fan OR use with tall RAM. Just a little taller and the fan would fit underneath, just a little shorter and the fan would fit on top. Noctua chose to build this in the middle making it of no use at all

Neither Low nor High. Pick one and go with it.
