Stonerboy779 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 That is amazing I am really tempted to splurge on phanteks fans and coolers and do a little modding of the family pc. The 80mm fans piss me off so it is time to get some of these phanteks 120/140mm fans in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black64 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 phanteks seems like the new High-End CPU Cooling company to me. They have beat Noctua in my book and they just look cooler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
airman Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 These coolers have some very close similarities to Noctua though. The mounting systems are identical - but that doesn't mean that they just used the same OEM. However, the Noctua D14 and the Phanteks PH-TC14PE are also very similar... Regardless, yes - Phanteks now reigns above all other heatsink manufacturers in my book when it comes to performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correction - When it comes to performance and looks They look so good especially this new black colour I wonder if they will add black to the range of colours for their other cooler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

airman Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Haha. It came out shortly after the launch of this version of coolers IIRC Here's the product page http://phanteks.com/index.php?p=products_3&id=27&cate=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6bmg Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Eh! Phanteks version of C14. Performance wise better though. Phanteks are doing a great job by not only copying Noctua's design but improving it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealNeil Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 I wonder if the coating that they spray it with makes it a little better than the Noctua coolers? The 140mm PH-TC14CS with red colored fans is on sale for $73.00 with free shipping at Newegg. Since it will be in a case with no real window, I may get it and compare it to my NZXT Havik 140.
