Product Information

Full details

The Noctua NF-P14S REDUX-1500 PWM is a high-performance, 140mm PC fan designed for users seeking effective and quiet cooling for their computer systems, particularly in demanding applications like case and radiator cooling. Its key benefit is the optimal balance between high static pressure, significant airflow, and low noise levels, achieved through its specialized impeller design and advanced bearing technology. A potential caveat for some users might be its standard grey color, though this can be customized with optional accessories. This fan features PWM control for dynamic speed adjustment, a durable SSO-Bearing for longevity, and a design optimized for high-impedance environments.

FAQs

What is the difference between the NF-P14s redux-1500 PWM and other NF-P14 models?

The 's' in NF-P14s denotes the square frame, which is optimized for radiators and cases. The 'redux' line represents streamlined, cost-effective versions of Noctua's popular fans, offering core performance and reliability. The '1500 PWM' indicates the maximum rotational speed and PWM control.

Can I change the color of the fan?

Yes, the standard grey color can be customized using Noctua's optional NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads, which are available in various colors.

What is the warranty period for this fan?

The Noctua NF-P14s redux-1500 PWM comes with a 6-year manufacturer's warranty.

What is MTTF, and what does it mean for this fan?

MTTF stands for Mean Time To Failure. A rating of over 150,000 hours indicates that the fan is designed for exceptional longevity and reliability under typical operating conditions.

Is this fan suitable for a CPU cooler heatsink?

Yes, its high static pressure makes it very effective for cooling CPU heatsinks, especially those with dense fin stacks.

What is the maximum noise level?

At its maximum speed of 1500 RPM, the noise level is approximately 25.8 dB(A).

Does this fan come with screws?

Yes, the fan includes mounting screws for installation.

Can I use this fan with a 3-pin fan header?

You can connect it to a 3-pin header, but it will operate at full speed or be controlled via voltage. For dynamic PWM speed control, a 4-pin PWM header is required.

Troubleshooting

Fan does not spin

Ensure the fan is securely connected to a functioning fan header on the motherboard. Check motherboard BIOS settings to confirm fan control is enabled and not set to 0% speed. Verify that the PWM signal is being sent correctly.

Fan is making unusual noise

Check for any obstructions in the fan blades, such as cables. Ensure the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case. If the noise persists, it might indicate a bearing issue, in which case contact Noctua support for warranty service.

Fan speed is not adjusting via PWM

Confirm that the fan is connected to a 4-pin PWM header on the motherboard. Check your motherboard's BIOS or UEFI settings to ensure PWM mode is selected for the fan header. Update motherboard BIOS if necessary.

Fan stops at low RPMs

This is normal behavior if the fan is set to 0% PWM duty cycle by your system. If it stops at higher RPMs than expected, check your fan curve settings in the BIOS or control software.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent static pressure for radiator and heatsink cooling
  • Quiet operation, especially at lower RPMs thanks to PWM control and noise-reduction features
  • High durability and long lifespan due to SSO-Bearing technology
  • Stops completely at 0% PWM for silent idle operation
  • Versatile mounting due to standard 140mm square frame
  • Proven Noctua quality and reliability

Cons

  • Standard grey color may not match all build aesthetics (though customizable with optional pads)
  • Performance might be slightly lower in very low-impedance, high-airflow scenarios compared to more specialized airflow fans
  • Requires a 4-pin PWM header on the motherboard for full speed control functionality
  • Higher price point compared to generic fans, reflecting premium build quality

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Mounting: The NF-P14s redux-1500 PWM features a standard 140mm square frame with 124.5mm mounting hole spacing. It can be mounted to any surface or component that supports this standard. Use the included screws for installation.
  2. Power Connection: Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cable to the appropriate `CPU_FAN` or `CHA_FAN` header on your motherboard. Ensure the header supports PWM control for optimal speed regulation.

Compatibility:

  • Form Factor: Compatible with all PC cases and cooling hardware that accept 140mm fans with standard mounting dimensions.
  • Motherboard Headers: Requires a 4-pin PWM fan header for full functionality. Can be connected to 3-pin headers, but speed control will be limited to voltage-based regulation (full speed or lower via BIOS settings).
  • Optional Accessories: Can be fitted with Noctua's NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (sold separately) for noise damping and color customization.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and frame using a soft brush or a can of compressed air to remove dust buildup. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring the fan is disconnected from power and completely dry before reconnecting.
  • Bearing Lubrication: The SSO-Bearing is sealed and does not require user lubrication. Do not attempt to disassemble the bearing.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
