The Noctua NF-A14x25r G2 PWM PC fan set in the chromax.black edition includes two fans with a round frame to cool high-performance computer builds. The set's design optimises for a push-pull setup, where two fans work in tandem on a single heatsink, increasing static pressure for efficient airflow through dense fins. This PWM fan provides fully automatic speed control, ranging from 0 to 1500rpm. The chromax.black edition features an all-black design, from the frame and blades to the anti-vibration pads, making it easy to integrate into builds with a uniform aesthetic.
The advanced aerodynamic design uses an impeller made from Sterrox LCP composite with nine progressively curved blades. This material reduces vibrations and deformation at high speeds. The etaPERF motor with SupraTorque technology delivers increased torque, which maintains a constant rotational speed even when air resistance increases, such as with dense heatsink fins or water-cooling radiators.
This set contains two fans with slightly different maximum speeds, with a difference of approximately 25rpm. This deliberate speed offset helps to suppress acoustic interference. When two identical fans operate in close proximity, as in a push-pull configuration, resonances can occur. The offset speeds eliminate these unwanted harmonic effects, which manifest as a pulsing sound. The result is a smoother and less intrusive sound profile for the entire cooling assembly.
The fan uses a second-generation self-stabilising oil-pressure bearing (SSO2). Its design incorporates an additional magnet placed closer to the rotor axis, which improves stabilisation, precision, and durability. The SSO2 bearing used has a stated mean time to failure (MTTF) of over 150000 hours of continuous operation. The metal bearing shell, which is CNC-milled from brass, also contributes to the overall precision and mechanical stability.
The fan provides fully automatic speed control via a standard 4-pin PWM connector. The speed range runs smoothly from 0 to 1500rpm, allowing you to tailor the cooling performance to the current system load. The integrated NE-FD6 PWM chip manages the automatic speed control and supports a complete stop function. At a 0% PWM signal from the motherboard, the fan stops completely, which is ideal for silent builds with semi-passive cooling under low load.
