We’re delighted to have once again been voted Best CPU Cooler Manufacturer and Best Fan Manufacturer by the ComputerBase community, securing both Reader’s Choice Awards for the third year in a row.
The results were particularly clear this year: Noctua received 44.8% of the votes in the CPU cooler category and an absolute majority of 53.3% in the fan category, placing us clearly in first place in both polls.
We were also delighted to receive 15.3% of the votes in the water-cooling category. Having only entered this market two months ago, we consider this a highly encouraging result and a wonderful vote of confidence from the ComputerBase community.
Winning both the CPU cooler and fan categories for the third consecutive year is a tremendous honour, and the strength of this year’s vote makes the recognition all the more meaningful to us. As awards decided directly by the ComputerBase community, they reflect the trust and appreciation of PC enthusiasts who use and evaluate our products every day.
A huge thank you to everyone who voted for us and continues to support Noctua – we greatly appreciate your confidence in our products!
