CPU Cooling Noctua NH-L9I CHROMAX.BLACK Color:black

Noctua NH-L9i chromax.black CPU Cooler

The Noctua NH-L9i chromax.black is an all-black version of the low-profile NH-L9i cooler for HTPCs and Small Form Factor builds. It keeps the same heatsink design and NF-A9x14 PWM fan, and adds a black coated heatsink and a chromax.black fan for a stealth look.

At only 37mm tall and with a 95 x 95 mm footprint it is fully compatible with RAM and PCIe cards. The low-profile SecuFirm2 mounting system fits Intel LGA115x and LGA1200 sockets. The manufacturer notes that the cooler is not suitable for CPUs that create high heat loads.

Key features

• All-black look - A black coated heatsink and the NF-A9x14 HS-PWM chromax.black fan give a uniform stealth appearance.
• 37mm total height - A slim 23mm heatsink and a fan only 14mm thick make the cooler suitable for slim cases with minimal clearance.
• Full RAM compatibility - The 95 x 95 mm footprint complies exactly with the Intel LGA115x keep-out zone, so it does not interfere with chipset coolers and does not overhang the memory modules.
• Full PCIe compatibility on mini-ITX - On mini-ITX boards where the PCIe slot sits close to the socket, the cooler does not block the slot.
• PWM fan and Low-Noise Adaptor - The 92mm NF-A9x14 fan adjusts its speed automatically through PWM, and an NA-RC7 Low-Noise Adaptor is included.
• Easy installation and thermal compound - A black SecuFirm2 mounting system for LGA115x and LGA1200 and NT-H1 thermal compound in the box.
