NH-D14 tests comming (extreme tdp and cfm included), some other tests (True, Megahalems, Thor's Hammer etc) here.

I lapp a lot of True's (and many others) and the gain was no more than 2c (except Brocken). No way True perform that bad.
Lapping details here and here.
The Noctua uses a optimized Design of the IFX14. Even the IFX14 is not far away from Megahalems, especially when u use 2 fans (push pull).

But we will see in the next Tests.

@busterben

because the temp inside the case is higher than outside. the h50 gets cooler air, so the temps are better. but when u not have enough exhaust fans installed, your temp inside the case will increase (because u usally use the exhaust fan for the h50)

sorry for my poor english skills
