Description
Noctua's premium cooling components are internationally renowned for their superb quietness, exceptional performance and quality. Continuing the legacy of Noctua’s classic NH-U-series, which has received more than a thousand awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines, the NH-U14S has become a benchmark for high-end 140mm single tower coolers. The TR4-SP3 version is a tailored custom model for AMD’s sTRX4/TR4/SP3 platform (Ryzen Threadripper / Epyc) and features a larger contact surface as well as the latest SecuFirm2 mounting system for socket sTRX4/TR4/SP3. Topped off with the renowned quiet NF-A15 PWM 140mm fan and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U14S TR4-SP3 forms a complete premium-quality solution that combines maximum performance and superb acoustics for enthusiast-grade sTRX4/TR4/SP3 systems. With six heatpipes, a fin surface area of more than 6000cm² and the large NF-A15 140mm fan, the NH-U14S TR4-SP3 provides a superior level of cooling performance that makes it ideal for the most high-end, enthusiast-grade sTRX4/TR4/SP3 systems. Noctua’s SecuFirm2 mounting systems have become synonymous with quality, safety and ease of use. The TR4-SP3 variant has been completely custom-designed for the new socket and is particularly easy to install: Put on the heatsink, fix the four spring-loaded screws and you’re done! In order to assure optimal compatibility with SLI and CrossFire multi-GPU setups, the SecuFirm2 mounting for sTRX4/TR4/SP3 makes it possible to offset the cooler by 3 or 6mm towards the upper edge of the motherboard, thereby increasing clearance of the top PCIe slot. Built with Noctua’s AAO standard and sophisticated aerodynamic design measures, the NF-A15 has built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm heatsink fans on the market. Copper (base and heat-pipes), aluminium (cooling fins), soldered joints & nickel plating This cooler is only compatible with AMD sTRX4/TR4/SP3, and cannot be used on any other sockets and is incompatible with Noctua’s standard mounting kits. Please note that the NH-U14S TR4-SP3 is a dedicated version for the AMD sTRX4/TR4/SP3 socket. Due to its customised larger base, it cannot be used on any other sockets and is incompatible with Noctua’s standard mounting kits.

I have a high-end Workstation (purchased in 2020) that has a Threadripper 3960x, 3080 FE GPU, m.2 SSD expander and 1600W power supply. When I bought the system, I really didn't consider the fans/ cooling because the cooling for the CPU was a ENERMAX solution which came with fans as well as the case a Lian Li Mesh Cool II and used those. This was the first desktop I've had since early 2000's and had been using laptops (workstations) for the past 8 years +/- since I graduated college/ grad school. Last week the ENERMAX cooler gave signs it was dying, had the pump ramped up to max and all fans to max and my CPU was still hot at 70-90C... Because I remember the attendant at Micro Center saying ENERMAX AIO had issues, but it was the only cooling solution in store that would be adequate with the CPU, I rolled the dice. It lasted me 3 yrs, I honesty thought it would have died earlier, so I wasn't caught off guard completely. So I decided to go all out with air coolers and found that the best was a Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3, Premium-Grade CPU Cooler for AMD sTRX4/TR4/SP3 (140mm, Brown) which brought me to research the Noctua NF-F12 iPPC 3000 PWM, Heavy Duty Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 3000 RPM (120mm, Black) for the case as I wanted new and better ones that had no RGB. I considered the NF-F12 over the other Noctua alternatives for the sheer power, 3000 RPM and the volume of air it pushed just was un matched. I rather have the power and not needed than need it and not have it. So my biggest concern was that to keep all this hot hardware cool, all fans would have to run at high speeds and this would mean noise. To my delight after installing them, the entire system runs at 40C and below and the noise is not an issue as I can run these at 1k RPM and no real noise. I have 6 of these fans, 3 at the front (push-config - 800-1200 RPM +-300), 2 on top (push-config- 800-1200 RPM +-300) and 1 at the back (pull-config - 700-1000 RPM +-300) as well as having the NH-U14S with a 2x fans push-pull config 1500/1200 RPM. I probably get temps even further down if I tweak it further. But as it is... I'm very happy with the results in terms of both performance and noise levels. Yes if you run these at full 3000 RPM they are loud (not as bad as I feared either, but obviously loud) but the volume of air is also incredible. One little difference is because these are "industrial" the fans only come with 4 screws and that's it. I believe it was a good investment, specially because this machine is my daily driver for work (I'm a Data Scientist & Developer for SAS solutions). I got reliability and simplicity of air cooling as well as the brute power of massive air-flow if I need. I will definitely consider using Noctua cooling solutions on my next build when I decide to upgrade this machine sometime in the next couple of years.

I really like the NH-U14S. It's very capable, but I'm not an overclocker and didn't expect it to cool beyond stock settings which are somewhere around 330W or so at the wall. That would put the CPU socket probably around 250W. I do NOT suggest the smaller version of this cooler. If you are going to air-cool a threadripper and choose Noctua, you want to get the U14S. A couple of notes on this cooler: The cooler partially blocks one DIMM slot, but its above the slot. Simply removing the fan (which takes 2 seconds) clears the slot for putting a DIMM in or taking it out, then the fan can be put back on and will be above the DIMM. This is a major plus. The cooler includes one fan, but also includes a strap for a second fan so you can boost heat extraction (and noise) by adding a second 140mm fan if you like. The fan is fairly quiet considering what its being asked to do. A lower-noise setup is possible if you use XFR2 + PPT settings to reduce the power envelope below stock. The cooler is designed for front-to-back airflow. Front-of-case fan-in, cooler pulls the air through to the back of the case, and a rear case fan to pull the air out. I recommend a front AND rear fan at a minimum, inline with the CPU socket. The cooler is fairly hefty and I do not recommend a vertical motherboard. Keep the motherboard flat if you use this cooler (and this is true for any bulky air cooler). If you need more cooling, intend to mount sideways (vertical motherboard), or need to fit the threadripper into a lower-profile case, consider a liquid cooling setup such as an Enermax. The advantage of using a liquid cooling setup is that you don't really have to worry about case airflow so much, whereas with an air-cooled setup you have to make sure that the front-to-back path is clear. The advantage of air-cooling is that it is extremely robust (no liquid to leak, no AIO pump, the fan is the only moving part). The disadvantage is that you will have non-uniform heat distribution on the motherboard. For example, the DIMMs on the exhaust side of the fan run considerably hotter than the DIMMs on the front-side, and same for the VRMs. So air-cooling is best when you aren't pushing the limits of the system, whereas liquid cooling is best if you are (or for the other reasons iterated). -Matt

I have an AMD 2950x CPU and was having a great time with it. Had a well known liquid cooler that has the words "TR4 II 240" in it. It was ultra quiet and worked great. Great that is, until the pump failed at about 15 months in. It's under warranty, but, my PC was only useable for about 5 minutes at a time with no working cooler, and it left me stranded and so far they aren't being quick with my warranty ticket. So, I needed something to get me back in action and this was not only one of the more affordable options but also well-reviewed. I threw the Noctua cooler on and its been doing a fine job keeping my CPU in the ~40C range for a few hours. I haven't pushed the PC to its limits, but I think it will suffice. And, it's really not that noisy and should actually be a great cooler. Not sure what I'll do once the other one is replaced. It's tempting to just keep using this one, since it works so well. At least its an easy swap. It came with the mounts, some thermal grease, a wrench, parts for adding a 2nd fan if you wish, and everything needed to get it going. The ONLY downside I found so far was that if you leave the fan mounted in the default location, it hits my DRAM because it needs to be maybe 1/8" higher or so. So I was forced to attach the fan just slightly higher by 1/8" to 1/4" than centered on the cooler. Otherwise, it's great.

Very easy to install. I didn't know until I got it that you can get one with a second fan. I'm ordering that for my computer as the Threadrippers runs even warmer than I thought it would. Make sure you have good airflow in the case! It works very well at stock speeds and maybe a mild overclock, but beyond that, unless you have a way to keep your computer room very cool, it will get warm. I tried the 3960x with a liquid cooler at first, but although it kept it below the throttling speed, it was getting quite warm. The standard water coolers just don't cover enough of the cpu to keep it cool. Putting it in was very easy. Cleared the memory on my Gigabyte Aorus Wifi Pro MB with no problem, but I only have four sticks of ram. If I had more, it would have hit the top of the sticks closest to the cpu and wouldn't fit. If you are planning on using more than four sticks, they had better be very low profile. Your MB may be different and have more spacing though. It cleared my video card which is in the first slot by at least 6 mm, although there is an adjustment to move it up to 6 mm higher up in the case if needed. Heatsink seems to be solid and very well made. It's tall, so check your clearance with the side of the case. I've got an old Cooler Master HAF 932 case and have four fans mounted on the side, and it still cleared with plenty of room. Even though it came with only one fan, it includes clips for a second one and a tube of thermal paste. It also comes with a short cable you can attach to the second fan to keep it at about 1200 RPM for quietness. I don't think the second fan will add that much extra noise as they are rather quiet fans and are 140 mm. They come with extra rubber isolation pads to keep the fan from vibrating against the cooler. All in all, a good product for a fair price, (considering what everything costs these days). Amazon shipping is also very quick, even without paying extra for faster shipping. I ordered it on a Wednesday evening, and it arrived on Friday about noon. I live near a large city, so your mileage may vary!

I've never used water cooling and was unhappy when AMD recommended that for its AMD 2950x Threadripper CPU. After all, when water cooling fails (and many such reports are online), you've ruined hundreds if not thousands of dollars of computer parts. When air cooling fails, all you have to do is replace a $25 fan and you're back in business. However reviews here and elsewhere claimed that this Noctua cooler does an excellent job cooling the Threadripper series. And it does. At idle, the CPU is 27-33C (depending on ambient temperature). While I've not run a stress test like Prime95, during a half-hour compilation in which all 32 "cores" were at 100% the temperature was always under 50C. The tradeoff is the size of the cooler. It's tall enough that cases smaller than a Full Tower might not work. Also it will block the first PCI Express slot. But Noctua provides a clever system which allows you to slide it over by 6 mm to unblock this slot. In my case, I did not do this since I needed only one such slot and had five. Since my motherboard alternates x16 and x8 slots, my video card ended up in the third, rather than second, slot. I believe that alternation is common in many motherboards. The excellent fan is large enough that it will impinge on the first RAM slot as well. I was worried that moving the fan up a bit would be difficult but it wasn't. In Amazon's photos you can see the clip that holds the fan to the heatsink. (There's one on each side.) Noctua's installation instructions have you attach the heatsink to the CPU first and then attach the fan. The two clips are easy to clip and unclip from the heatsink. The cooler is remarkably quiet given its size. I've already bought a Noctua replacement fan when this inevitably fails and am now hooked on Noctua for air cooling.

Sure it's afer-market modded with their parts, but still, it works well enough. I'll never be able to stress this machine out for my use case, since I don't play heavy load games, or do 3d rendering. Built it to last longer. I'll not need faster ram for a good 5 years. When all was said and done, using the black fans and this cooler, I spent $150. THOUGH it was hard to find an AIO that could cover the whole die or at least the 4 packets on the die. AND this being my first build in 20 years, wasn't even going to attempt watercooling with a custom loop. Not with the price of these parts. OLD faithful methods. SO, yeah, this works great and would recommend. YES BCool has an all black one that I could have bought, but their fans were smaller, that whole package was much bigger making it probably impossible to put all the RAM in that I wanted. Even though those HyperX are sans RGB and rather short. So, I get double fans, at an extra price to the BCool option with the Noctua reputation attached to it. Also at max fan speeds this thing hits 67dB. THOUGH, CPU Cooler only, is about 35dB (I have a sound meter). One and only complaint, at 2600RPM it only spits out about 3MPH of wind power, where those 3000RPM ones can hit 6MPH. The 120mms usually top off at 5MPH, didn't think 2600RPM would be almost/is half the performance.

Pros: - Excellent performance compared to other coolers (including industry leading water coolers) - Great quality parts and packaging (no shortage of high quality pipes and great quality fan) - Includes extra fan mounting braces for extra fan & includes thermal fluid. - Quiet Cons: - Does not fit in many cases - Restricts access to the top PCI-E port (was unable to fit my GPU in the top port, I had to move it down to the next port wich now prevents me from being able to run NV-Link/SLI) Pro tip: You can upgrade the performance of this unit by ordering 2x 'Noctua NF-P14r' fans which operate at higher speeds (at the cost of more noise). This push-pull setup will make a considerable difference, especially for AMD CPUs with high core counts (which will 'always' throttle down after prolonged loads). Previously, my R7 2990wx would throttle down to base clock (3ghz) after 10 minutes of 100% load during renders. After this upgrade, the temps go from 3.6ghz to 3.4ghz for the first 10 minutes, and never goes below 3.2ghz even after hours of renders.

The pictures do NOT do justice to how HUGE this thing is. I've installed it in an enormous full-tower case, and even so, I was worried about it having enough room. It barely fits! Installed with the optional second fan in push-pull configuration. Installed thermal paste exactly according to Noctua's instructions, which is nine small dots in a grid of three rows, then four larger dots in the gaps between those. Its performance may be helped by the fact that I'm running 6 case fans, providing plenty of airflow and plenty of cool air for this CPU cooler to work with. Top, front, and bottom of the case are all intake, with the rear of the case for exhaust. The CPU cooler blows front to rear, which plays very nicely with that airflow arrangement. But that massive size gets you extremely impressive cooling. People told me that my Threadripper 3970x had to have water cooling, that no air cooler could keep it from thermal throttling. People were wrong. I've done benchmarks, games, rendering, CPU crypto mining ... nothing I've thrown at it can get the CPU temps above 65C, even with this massive 250W CPU churning at 100% all night, the CPU temp usually hovers around 53-56C well below the thermal throttling cutoff of 90C. When at idle or doing non-intensive tasks, it's usually down at 31-46C. I never overclock anything, of course. Not worth it. But if I wanted to, I'd definitely have plenty of thermal headroom to play around with given this incredible heatsink! The size does have drawbacks, though. I did have RAM clearance issues, which forced me to relocate the two fans higher on the heatsink than they were intended to go. Thankfully, this doesn't seem to have hampered thermal performance much, as temps are still extremely good. I didn't have to adjust it for GPU clearance. It comes very close to the nearest pcie slot, but still stays far enough away that there's a couple millimeters of clearance. Overall, HIGHLY recommended to anyone looking to keep one of these Threadripper monsters cool. Not for small cases, though, and be prepared to deal with some RAM interference. I wish now that I'd gone with fewer modules of a larger size each, rather than mostly filling the banks. Then I wouldn't have had to relocate the fans.
