Noctua has published a new product roadmap for the second half of 2026 and the first half of 2027, detailing upcoming CPU coolers, partner power supplies, and desktop fans. Many of these upcoming designs were first shown as prototypes during the Computex 2026 international trade show in Taipei. The company plans to release several thermal accessories later this year before launching its next-generation cooling hardware.
For more immediate launches in the third quarter of 2026, Noctua is preparing its NT-CP1 carbon nanotube thermal pad as an alternative to standard thermal paste. The pad utilizes vertically aligned carbon nanotubes with an aluminum backbone to transfer heat from AMD AM4 and AM5 processors. The company also plans to release the Pulsar Feinmann F01 mouse and the WireView Pro II voltage measurement tool later this quarter

Scheduled for the second quarter of 2027, the next-generation NH-L12 series low-profile CPU cooler checks in at a compact 70 mm (2.8 inches) tall. The cooler uses six 6 mm (0.24-inch) copper heat pipes and dense aluminum fins, paired with a single NF-A12x25 G2 120 mm (4.7-inch) fan. This compact format provides space-saving cooling similar to the small enclosures used by mobile setups in our guide to the best gaming laptop under 1200.
The cooler offers 35 mm (1.4 inches) of clearance for memory modules on Mini-ITX motherboards. This clearance requirement means builders need to select low-profile memory sticks, rather than the taller high-capacity modules featured in the best 32gb ram laptops. In addition to the low-profile model, Noctua is preparing dual-tower workstation air coolers with seven heatpipes for upcoming AMD Threadripper and Intel LGA4710 sockets.
In the second quarter of 2027, Noctua plans to launch two power supply collaborations built with Seasonic. The Seasonic Prime PX Noctua Edition and the next-generation Seasonic Prime TX Noctua Edition units will integrate specialized quiet fans to lower operating noise. The company is also releasing home products in early 2027, including a 140 mm (5.5-inch) desk fan with an airflow amplifier and a USB fan controller.
For liquid cooling, the company recently introduced AIO liquid coolers starting from €220 (around $240 USD) with radiator sizes up to 420 mm (16.5 inches). Attentive builders can watch for official retail listings as the release dates for these roadmapped products draw closer. Perfecting these premium cooling products often requires extra development time, meaning some estimated release windows may shift.
