Featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A14 further improves the renowned quiet cooling performance of the NF-P14. The FLX version provides 1200/1050/900rpm speed settings via the supplied Low-Noise Adaptors in order to provide full flexibility in fine-tuning the fan for maximum ventilation performance or near-silent operation. Its superb running smoothness, reference-class SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for the highest demands.
Square 140mm frame
The NF-A14's square 140mm frame with 140mm mounting holes (124.5mm spacing) makes it a premium grade replacement for common 140mm case fans and perfect for use on 140mm water cooling radiators, where its square shape will ensure full coverage and best pressure performance.

Flow Acceleration ChannelsThe NF-A14 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. |
SSO2 BearingThe NF-A14 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. |
Integrated anti-vibration padsIntegrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems. |

AAO frame
Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua's proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan's performance/noise efficiency.

I bought this fan to replace a Cougar CF-V14HB 140 mm fan. That fan was purchased to replace the stock intake fan in my Lian Li case. The stock fan was an LED fan, so I never even considered using it.
Anyway, everything I say here should be regarded with the caveat that the Cougar had less than 100 hours of use on it, and the Noctua is pretty much fresh out of the box. It's possible that the Cougar might have quieted down after a longer break-in period, since most of its noise seemed to be coming from the motor or bearing.
I did a side-by-side comparison, and it was difficult for me to say which fan was louder (from distances between 0.1 to 0.5 meters). I will say that the Cougar seemed to have more motor or bearing noise, whereas the Noctua seemed to be emitting more noise from its fan blades. Also, the Cougar seemed slightly out-of-balance, when you hold it in your hand (with the power on). Both fans were run at full 12V (i.e. without any attenuator) and have similar airflow specs.
While the amount of (upstream) noise was similar, I feel the character of the noise from the Noctua fan is more pleasant. It's a soft, whooshy hum, whereas the Cougar seemed to have a bit more whine and buzz to it. That sounds a bit harsh on the Cougar, which really isn't bad (especially when I got it at roughly half the price). But it was noticeable enough that I decided to take a chance and see if the Noctua fan was better. In hindsight, I'm not sorry I tried, but I don't think the improvement was worth the full price of the Noctua fan. But if I were starting over from square one, I'd buy the Noctua without a second thought.
Finally, I just want to say that this fan is a little louder than I'd hoped. Since I don't know if my expectations were reasonable, I'm not going to deduct a star. Just be warned that this fan is definitely not silent, at full speed. And I bought it to run at full speed, since I also upgraded the exhaust fan and want to maintain the ratio to preserve a positive pressure configuration.
Sin duda alguna mucho mejores que los Corsair que venian incluidos con el gabinete. No duden nunca en adquirir productos Noctua no se arrepentiran.
That's not even the best part. These things are quieter than my desk fan! I was amazed at how quiet these fans are even on max speed setting. They're practically silent on low and medium speeds. You'll need a good case to take full advantage of these fans, but even in a terrible case, these will outperform any other fan on the market, especially for its price.
