1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:07,640
okay so I'm having a look at another nocta cooler the reason that I'm looking at both of these is they both launched

2
00:00:05,799 --> 00:00:12,040
fairly close together and the reason for that is that nocta just launched their

3
00:00:09,599 --> 00:00:17,480
140 mil fan so this is an updated version of the NH c12p and it is the

4
00:00:15,119 --> 00:00:24,039
se14 which as you may or may not have guessed stands for special edition 14 cm

5
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:30,240
fan okay so there you go so let's get this open this is not a tower heat sink

6
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:34,960
this is actually a more traditional uh blowing down style of heat sink and the

7
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:40,160
reason for that is not everybody has room in their case for these giant Tower

8
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:44,879
heat sinks that go out of the side of your motherboard I mean the one that we

9
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:49,600
unboxed recently the the D14 is just huge and you don't always have space for

10
00:00:47,239 --> 00:00:55,120
that you don't always have clearance so a more top down design is good for that

11
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:58,680
and it's also good if you need more cooling for the surrounding components

12
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:02,760
around your motherboard because the fan will actually contribute to mosfet

13
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:06,880
cooling as well as RAM cooling all that other stuff the tradeoff is that it

14
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:10,840
doesn't cool the CPU quite as well which many people are happy to make so let's

15
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:15,560
dive into the accessories here first we have a metal noock case badge very

16
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:21,119
classy very stylish then we have their low noise and ultra low noise adapters

17
00:01:18,759 --> 00:01:25,840
so 7 and 5 volts basically then we have a couple of fan clips and a tube of

18
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:31,479
their nt1 thermal compound which you will need to spread on the CPU then we

19
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:36,560
have the AMD mounting hardware okay so their SKU firm mounting system includes

20
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:40,040
both AMD and Intel this Intel mounting hardware you can see by all the

21
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:46,079
different mounting holes here is actually good for 775 1156 and 1366 it

22
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:50,119
uses all thumb screws and stuff very nice I love to see that and then they've

23
00:01:48,079 --> 00:01:53,719
done their classy little manual thing here where you open it up and you got

24
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:57,759
the Intel instructions in one side and the AMD structions instruct AMD

25
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:02,039
structions AMD instructions in the other side very cool it's all colorcoded I

26
00:01:59,399 --> 00:02:05,840
should probably just do a quick uh show that really quickly here so they show

27
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:09,479
you all the different steps and colors should be quite simple to install like

28
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:17,080
all of their coolers have been in the past okay so let's get down to the c12p

29
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,720
se14 here if I can figure out how to get

30
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:27,400
the Box open then that will be a major stride for me okay so it actually

31
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:30,760
ships okay with you able to see the 140

32
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,959
mm fan through the front now this 140 mm

33
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:37,640
fan is a pretty new product for Noctua unlike all of the other 140 mil fans on

34
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:42,599
the market it uses a circular frame and the reason they've done that is because

35
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:45,159
it actually has 120 mm mounting holes

36
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:49,200
now if you buy the uh the fan Standalone you can actually get 140 mm adapters but

37
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:54,159
it's pretty cool that they allow you to mount a larger fan on a smaller uh

38
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:57,760
mounting hole okay they ship it with a little piece of plastic I like attention

39
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:01,239
to detail like this I love to see this between the fins and the fan so that

40
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:06,239
nothing get scratched you don't get any plastic junk uh residue coming off on

41
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:10,480
your fins keeps it nice and pristine looking so let's have a look at the

42
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,560
cooler itself you've got okay a nickel

43
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:17,720
plated copper base which will do the uh the obligatory finger shot to show the

44
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:23,080
uh the shininess now it's not particularly reflective but Noctua takes

45
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:28,560
great pride in how flat their bases is their bases are all your base something

46
00:03:25,959 --> 00:03:33,239
either way reflectiveness is not necessarily an indication of flatness so

47
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:38,720
we have six heat pipes coming into the bottom here which are all oriented to

48
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:40,519
come up into their sort of radiator

49
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:44,480
array here now I'm not sure why they've made this design decision where they're

50
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,680
leaving out some of the fins here but I'm sure there's a very good reason for

51
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,159
it and I just want to give you a couple more angles here before we wrap up our

52
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,840
unboxing so you can see the noct to a branding there oh I see why they've done

53
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:59,120
it because these ones are connected directly to the base I'm sorry I totally

54
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:04,720
missed that wow blonde moment there okay so thank you for checking out my

55
00:04:00,519 --> 00:04:08,720
unboxing and product overview of the NH

56
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,720
