Vienna, December 9th 2009 - Noctua today officially introduced its new NH-C12P SE14 premium cooler. Building on the proven basis of the successful NH-C12P, the NH-C12P SE14 now comes with Noctua’s new, already award winning NF-P14 140mm fan for further improved quiet cooling performance and adds support for LGA1156 as well as LGA1366 via the latest SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system.
“Ever since its introduction last year, our NH-C12P has been a very popular choice among customers who seek excellent cooling performance close to our signature NH-U12P series at much lower height”, says Mag. Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO. “More than 100 awards and recommendations from the international press are a testimony to the NH-C12P’s broad appeal, so we’ve decided to issue a special edition that adds compatibility with the latest Intel sockets and further improves the coolers renowned cooling efficiency by using our new NF-P14 fan.”
Further improving the original NH-C12P’s much acclaimed quiet cooling performance, the NF-P14 is a highly optimised, premium quality 140mm fan with Vortex-Control Notches for superb quietness and outstanding aerodynamic efficiency. Due to the NH-C12P’s top-flow design, two large Airflow-Gaps and the oversize 140mm fan, the cooler doesn’t only ensure excellent CPU cooling but also provides superior airflow for near-socket motherboard components. At a height of only 114mm, the NH-C12P SE14 is ideal for HTPCs or smaller chassis.
Thanks to the addition of the latest SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system, the new NH-C12P SE14 supports LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA775, AM2, AM2+ and AM3, making it compatible with Intel’s latest Core i7 and Core i5 processors. Topped off with Noctua’s pro-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-C12P SE14 forms a complete premium quality package that lends itself to applications that demand both excellent cooling efficiency and lower profile design.
Price and availability
The NH-C12P SE14 will be available shortly at a recommended retail price of EUR 59.90 / USD 69.90.

Shiny objects are always cool to look at in the dark and UV reactive cables under UV light is just awesome. As any modder would know, a case without lights is a boring mod indeed and so we take a quick look at some awesome gear from VIZO for the finishing touches.
Today we take a look at the Noctua NH-C12P. A cooler with a shorter profile making it an excellent choice for those wanting top end passive cooling in smaller system cases. Check out the video review for more information.
Lexmark, a well established and internationally recognised brand allows us to review one of their products. The X204n mono laser printer with its modest looks aims to please small office and home users. Check out the review.
A Behemoth of a mouse, or so as OCZ claim. This litle fella will give you quite a smack in performance for a relatively low cost which puts it in good place amongst its competitors. Check out the full review for more information on the product.
Vienna, August 18th 2009 - Noctua today announced the impending availability of its new NM-I3 SecuFirm2™ mounting kit that adds support for Intel’s upcoming LGA1156 based Core i5 and Core i7 “Lynnfield” CPUs. Compatible with all Noctua CPU coolers since 2005, the new SecuFirm2™ kit will be supplied to Noctua users free of charge after uploading a proof of purchase on Noctua’s website.
“Back in 2006 when AMD introduced the AM2 socket, we started providing free mounting kits because we think that product and service quality should always go hand in hand”, explains Mag. Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO. “We’ve continued this tradition when Intel presented LGA1366 and we’ll stick to our policy for LGA1156 as well. We always like to think of our coolers as safe long-term investments, and even if you bought one of our first models four years ago, you’ll still be able to upgrade it to the latest socket technology free of charge.”
Designed to combine outstanding reliability, optimal contact pressure and easy, straightforward installation, Noctua’s enthusiast-grade SecuFirm2™ mounting systems meet the highest demands in safety, performance and ease-of-use. The new NM-I3 kit supports the upcoming LGA1156 based Core i5 and Core i7 (Lynnfield) CPUs as well as socket LGA1366 and LGA775 processors, thus also serving as the successor of the previous upgrade kit for LGA1366.
The new NM-I3 kit is backwards compatible with all Noctua CPU coolers since 2005 and can be ordered free of charge via Noctua’s website. A proof of purchase (photo, scan or screenshot of the invoice) of both a Noctua CPU cooler and either a socket 1156 mainboard or socket 1156 CPU are required. The new mounting kit will also be available in stores at a low service charge.

The NH-U12P, from Noctua, yet another cooler to tackle the Core i7 CPU from Intel. With a dual 120mm fan arrangement and a large heatsink one would think it is not to be taken lightly and the review is testament to that. If you’re in the stages of buying a new cooler specifically for the Core i7 socket then you may want to consider the NH-U12P. Check out the review for more details.
