HB gives this cooler an Editor's Choice award for its outstanding cooling performance, high clearance and low profile modes, and high quality. It's pretty pricey though.
"Noctua is not a volume-based CPU cooler vendor but all of their CPU coolers are well designed and have a strong solid purpose of existence; not duplicating or competing with each others and they are continuing improving their products. Today we will have a look on Noctua latest CPU cooler; NH-C14 which is a similar version of NH-D14 but it is in C-type top-flow mode instead of vertical/tower mode."
