Noctua delays most of its 2025 roadmap

Noctua has announced significant shifts in its 2025 product roadmap, impacting the release schedule of several highly anticipated products. The flagship NH-D15 G2 chromax.black cooler has been pushed back from Q2 to Q3 2025, while Noctua's next-generation 120mm fans have been moved from Q1 to Q2 2025.

Perhaps most surprising is the removal of the next-generation dual-tower CPU cooler from the 2025 schedule. It seems this new cooler is now destined for a 2026 release. Further delays affect specific fan models. The chromax.black version of the NF-A14x25 G2 fan has been shifted from Q1 to Q3, and the chromax.black edition of the next-generation 120mm fan has been pushed back significantly from Q1 to Q4.

While Noctua cites “quality optimisation” as the reason for these changes, the specific underlying causes remain undisclosed. However, there is some good news. The Seasonic Prime TX-1600 Noctua Edition power supply remains on track for its planned Q1 2025 resupply. Initially launched in late 2024, this collaboration has a Titanium efficiency certification and ATX 3.1 compliance, making it a suitable choice for high-performance systems featuring current-generation graphics cards like the RTX 5090 and 4090.

Noctua plans to showcase its upcoming product range at Computex Taipei 2025, where further details about the revised release schedule and potential specifications are expected to be revealed.
