NH-C12P SE14 | Installation Manual INTEL
Removing the mainboard
Step 1:
In case you want to use the cooler on an assembled system,
you first have to remove the mainboard from the case in order
to be able to install the supplied backplate.
Caution: On LGA1366 and LGA1156/1155, the supplied back-
plate will install over the mainboard’s stock backplate, so the
mainboard’s stock backplate must not be taken off.
Required mounting parts:
First put the four bolts into the holes appropriate for your
mainboard’s CPU socket.
Setting up the backplate
Step 2:
Thank you very much for choosing a Noctua cooler. This
manual will guide you through the installation process of
the SecuFirm2tm mounting system step by step.
Prior to installing the cooler, please consult the compat-
ibility list on our website and verify that the cooler is fully
compatible with your motherboard. Should you encounter
any difficulties, please check the FAQs on our website and
don’t hesitate to contact our support team at support@
noctua.at.
Noctua cannot be held responsible for any damage or losses
caused by compatibility issues.
Multilingual versions of this manual are available on our
website: www.noctua.at
Caution: Please verify that all four bolts are put into the ap-
propriate holes fully pushed in.
Step 4:
Installing the mounting bars
First put the plastic spacers onto the bolts, then add the mount-
ing bars.

1x 3-in-1 Intel backplate
4x bolts for backplate 2x mounting bars
LGA1366 (80mm)
LGA1156/1155 (75mm)
LGA775 (72mm)
For use on LGA1366 and LGA1156/1155 mainboards, please
remove the rubber inlay. Make sure that the rubber inlay is
in place for LGA775.
LGA1366 & LGA1156/1155 LGA775
Caution: On LGA1156/1155, please make sure that the two
cuts in the supplied backplate align with the screws of the
mainboard’s stock backplate.
Caution: Choose the alignment of the mounting bars according
to the desired final orientation of the cooler:
Step 3:
Attaching the backplate
Place the backplate on the rear side of the mainboard so that
the bolts stick through the mounting holes.

Caution: In tower style cases, please avoid installing the
NH-C12P SE14 with the bends of the heatpipes pointing
upwards as this may result in reduced cooling perform-
ance.

Caution: Tighten the screws until they stop.
Caution: Make sure to use the correct holes on the mounting bars.
Fix the mounting bars using the 4 thumb screws.
Step 5:
Applying thermal paste
If there are residual traces of thermal paste or thermal pads
on your CPU, please clean them off first. Then press a small
drop (4-5mm diameter) of NT-H1 onto the centre of the heat-
spreader.
Caution: Applying too much thermal paste will lower the heat
conductivity and cooling performance!
Step 6:
Fastening the heatsink to the CPU
Caution: Please take off the protection cover at the bottom side
of the heatsink first!
Put the heatsink onto the CPU and screw it to the screw threads
of the mounting bars.
Caution: Tighten the screws until they stop.
Caution: Make sure that the curved sides of the mounting bars
are pointing outwards.
Connect the fan to the mainboard, power supply or fan con-
troller.
Depending on your CPU and the temperature inside the case,
you may interconnect the supplied Low-Noise Adapter (L.N.A.)
or Ultra-Low-Noise Adapter (U.L.N.A.) in order to further re-
duce the fan’s operating noise.
Caution: When using the (U.)L.N.A., check the temperature
of your CPU using appropriate software (e.g. the respective
applications of your mainboard manufacturer), in order to
evade automatic throttling of the CPU due to the increased
temperature.
If the cooling performance is insufficient, please increase case
ventilation or remove the (U.)L.N.A.
Attaching the fan
Step 7:
First stick the 4 anti-vibration pads onto the cooling fins in
order to dampen minor vibrations emitted by the fan. Then
attach the fan to the heatsink using the 2 steel clips, placing it
so that it blows onto the heatsink.

Caution: Tighten the screws until they stop.
2x mounting bars
4x long screws

Caution: The SecuFirm2tm mounting system requires a backplate,
which is preinstalled on most AM2/AM2+/AM3 mainboards.
If your mainboard doesn’t have a backplate, please contact our
Step 3:
Applying thermal paste
If there are residual traces of thermal paste or thermal pads on
your CPU, please clean them off first.
Then press a small drop (4-5mm diameter) of NT-H1 onto the
centre of the heat-spreader.
Caution: Applying too much thermal paste will lower the heat
conductivity and cooling performance!
Removing the retention module
Step 1:
If your mainboard uses a retention module for CPU cooler in-
stallation, please remove it first. The SecuFirm2tm mounting
system will install directly to your mainboard’s stock backplate
on the rear side of the socket.

Step 4:
Fastening the heatsink to the CPU
Caution: Please take off the protection cover at the bottom side
of the heatsink first!
Put the heatsink onto the CPU and screw it to the screw threads
of the mounting bars.
Caution: Tighten the screws until they stop.
