Noctua presents chromax.black versions of its NH-D15 G2 and NF-A14x25 G2
Vienna, November 19th 2025 – Noctua today presented all-black chromax line versions of its award-winning G2 flagship models: Both the NH-D15 G2 CPU cooler and the NF-A14x25 G2 140mm fans have successfully set new standards for performance-to-noise efficiency, and the new chromax.black versions provide the same, award-winning quiet cooling performance in a sleek, unobtrusive design.
“The response to our long-awaited G2 series products has been amazing, both from customers and expert reviewers,” says Roland Mossig (Noctua CEO). “We’re proud that the NH-D15 G2 and NF-A14x25 G2 have managed to continue the legacy of their iconic predecessors, and we are confident that the new chromax.black versions will be well received by those who prefer a stealthy, unobtrusive look.”
Succeeding the iconic NF-A14 and NF-A15, the square-frame NF-A14x25 G2 and round-frame NF-A14x25r G2 have quickly established themselves as a new benchmark for premium quality quiet 140x25mm fans. Their advanced aerodynamic engineering featuring a novel Progressive Bend impeller design with a Centrifugal Turbulator hub, winglets, and a record tight tip clearance of only 0.7mm enables the G2 models to provide a significant boost in performance-to-noise efficiency over their renowned predecessors: Whether it’s in low-impedance, airflow-oriented applications such as case cooling, or high-impedance, pressure-demanding scenarios such as on heatsinks and water cooling radiators, where their etaPERF motor with SupraTorque allows leveraging extra torque headroom, the NF-A14x25 G2 fans are proven winners.
The chromax.black editions combine the NF-A14x25 G2s’ Sterrox liquid-crystal polymer impeller, comprehensive feature set and breakthrough quiet cooling proficiency with an attractive black design that can be customised with coloured anti-vibration pads, which are available separately.
Continuing the legacy of the iconic NH-D15, the NH-D15 G2 has received more than 100 awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines since its introduction in summer 2024. Utilising the same further refined 8-heatpipe heatsink and state-of-the-art NF-A14x25r G2 PWM fans, the chromax.black version offers the same winning combination of cutting-edge cooling efficiency and superb quietness of operation. At the same time, its black fans and black coated heatsink enable it to merge these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the Torx based SecuFirm2+ multi-socket mounting system, Noctua’s highest performing NT-H2 thermal compound and a full 6-year manufacturer’s warranty, the NH-D15 G2 chromax.black is a deluxe choice for everyone who seeks an elite-class heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.
