Hi,

here is the build I am planning on:
ASUS X99-DELUXE II LGA 2011-v3 Intel X99 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
i7-6950X

Will Noctua NH-D14 SE2011 work with these components?
Here is its description:

No reason why it shouldn't work, the mounting bracket hasn't changed, and the 6950X has essentially the same TDP as every other LGA2011(-v3) processor that Intel has released.

I'm using the same cooler on a 5930K / X99 so yeah it should work fine. Same socket and all that.

Should work. Only change with Broadwell-E is the z-height is a little lower on the package compared to previous gens, but that is handled on the socket mount. From all the reviews, the current cooling solutions still should work fine.
