    Really interesting about the orientation thing. Makes me wonder what noise levels are at other orientations. Ironically, this sounds slightly like a downside of a hemi-anechoic chamber measurement: in real life, noise reflects all over the place, and so directionality of noise will matter less; i.e. if noise is directional, then you'll hear it even from a different direction. But within an anechoic chamber, you're not getting that noise "aggregation" for free, so even though measurements may be much more repeatable and precise, they're slightly less representative of real-world applications. Probably a good trade-off, but I wonder now what other cooler's noise at different angles would have been like. Another thing that's springs to mind now is that such coolers are of course mounted in a case in the real world, not an open test-bench. I suspect that given the kind of air-flow dynamics that seem to matter here, the directionality of the noise will be affect by a real-world the case. But would it be even worse for G2, or better? who knows...

    While the new NH-D15 G2 MSRP is overpriced, these fans are not - such a performance for both airflow and static pressure are never seen before especially at 25mm width! I just wished they had connection system similar to UNIFAN and they would release these fans in white, and I will buy these fans in a heartbeat. Knowing Noctua, it won't happen.

    @@HardwareBusters you can connect unifan to normal PWM and ARGB (if the version has ARGB) headers, single unifans come with this cables. Also you can connect other fans to the unifan hub (in some versions), to be honest the whole point of unifan is to reduce cable clutter, I've had 15 fans (I know too much but this what I ended up) in my case and cables of the fans were a nightmare, now I have 9 Al120v2 fans and it's much better I need 3 cables - 1 pwm from CPU header to the radiator and 6 fans daisy chained with 1 cable to the controller and one to connect 2 groups of fan I have that it! Even with more fans it would not be an issue. I have already bought some Al140v2 and O11 evo XL and plan to change my system to dual 420mm old hardware labs radiators I have ( I need to paint them first). Noctua fans are in god tier of performance I acknowledge that, and I'm willing to pay the 40$ a pop for them, but going back to the old cable clutter - this is not something I would like, not after experiencing such a better solution for cable management. Maybe I will get them for my brother, who is fan of Noctua (no pun intended).

    The original A14s are not really better than most other 140mm fans with good bearings, it uses a pretty generic blade design and the only real upsides of it are the quality of the bearings and noctua supoort. I have a bunch of case fans from the likes of fractal and phanteks which essentially perform the same as the Noctua A14s from my coolers.

    Very nice video as always, appreciate your work! I wanted to go for SF850L because of better cooling and it's also fitting, but why is the sfx-l so loud, even tough it has the 120mm fan? Is it just the fan curve the went with, are the components not able to run so hot because of worse design, or did they just do big compromises and went with a too high continous operation temperature on the SF850 and the SF850L is the way better choise in terms of durability? Or just bad design on the SF850L?
