There is no 'Noctua 5 dual Heatpipe' lol are you talking about the D14, U14, U12, etc?
The NH-D14 will perform similarly to the H100i at stock voltages and clock rates, but the H100i will beat out slightly at moderate or more overclocks. The H100i is noticeably louder though at full RPM than the Noctua fans are.
If your case doesn't have a window, I would go with the Noctua D14. If it does have a window, and you care a lot about aesthetics, the H100i is also a great choice.

What do u mean my case has windows?
I have not decide my case
Probably either Corsair 400r, 500r, or maybe NZXT Phantom 410
Also, how about the noise?

I meant if you can see inside your case. The D14 is extremely bulky, and I personally can't stand the colors of Noctua fans. But if the look of the inside of your computer isn't a big concern, I would go for the Noctua D14.

I would always go air over closed loop water, but that is just me.
the NH-D14 and h100i perform about the same.
Don't forget changing the fans on the h100i will only LOWER performance.

The Nh-D14 performs the same as the H100i and will be MANY MANY times quieter. Closed loop coolers are NOT for people looking for quiet.
Thanks Everyone, but also, is NH d14 is same as this ?

This is the one you need. The second one will not fit your motherboard, and the third is a completely difference cooler.

Yes both of those will use Corsair link. But honestly, most people disable Corsair link and control the fans themselves.

H110 does not have Corsair Link, neither does the H60.
Having used the H100i and H110, the H110 is a decent bit better than the H100i. I plugged my fan splitter into the 4-pin motherboard header incorrectly, and the fans didn't even turn on. Took me about 15 minutes to realize they weren't on, as I was downloading a game on Steam, but my temps never rose above 35 - with no fans on.

Case is very much personal choice. If you're going with an air cooler, the better air flow the better. It really depends on what you like. Check out the Corsair 450D. It has good airflow, great build quality, and a huge window.
