Will the NH-D14 fit in the Fractal Design R4 Case?

nkucz

Pretty much asking what the title says, will the Noctua NH-D14 fit in the Fractal Design R4 case?

If you are willing to spend that amount of money, take a look at some watercooling instead

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing

Don't think an h100i would beat a d14 and the only other option is custom loop which would cost a whole bunch of money

Even if the h100i (the only closed loop that compares to the d14) was slightly better under full load it is louder and about $20 more

Think the H100i performs better then the d14, cant remenber now.

 

But the really good thing about watercooler is that you get the heat directly out of the case.

If you do the same for the GPU and PSU, almost all heat produced in the chassi are expeled directly out of the chassi, making the need for extra fans very low and the motherboard temp really low
