Neoseeker tried the Noctua NH-U12S & NH-U14S CPU Cooler

A quote from the article:
Keeping your processor cool is essential when it comes to keeping your system running smoothly, after all everyone knows what happens when your system overheats: it shuts down or it fries the CPU. Coolers come in many different shapes, sizes, colors and types than I would care to count. You have traditional stock coolers usually provided by the processor manufacturer and at best will get the job done, then you have water cooling, phase change cooling, dry ice and LN2. The last three mentioned are used more for seriously extreme overclocking and benchmarking, and while phase change could be used on an everyday basis great care must be taken to prevent the build up of condensation.

If you not sure which route is best for you, then I would suggest going with a high performance air cooler. This is usually the safest and easiest way of cooling your CPU. In the past we have covered many such products from manufactuer Noctua, and today I will adding two more to that long list, the NH-U12S and the NH-U14S. Noctua's NH-U12S uses 120mm fans whereas the NH-U14S supports those measuring 140mm, and both are U-type tower coolers.
