Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.Black, Low-Profile CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Black)

I bought this to replace a tower-style cooler that didnt fit well with my updated RAM. Installation is straight forward and simple if your board is not installed in the case. On-case installation (like mine) is a little trickier as you need to use the backplate provided and do the adjustments vertically. In terms of performance, I have no complaints, it performs as good as my old cooler in a significantly smaller package, which is definitely a highlight. Probably the major drawback is the price, but in my opinion is worth it

This thing is super quiet and keeps my thermals down. Ive been hearing that these are the best for years and now I see why. Even packaging and instructions were simple and nice

Somehow cools my 3950x

So i got a new small itx case where my AIO is not able to fit. I bought this to cool my Ryzen 2700x and it works great. I play games mostly so cpu isnt intense. Its average is about 45c and ive seen it go as high as 75c during cinebench (cpu bench test). This is basically an open air case with alot of airflow. Im running it with a 3080ti. No issues at all with performance. Definitely recommend. Gpu tops out at 70c while gaming. Fyi. Very low fan noise.

What more is there to say? Every other fan I looked at had reviews comparing the fan to Noctuna fans. Skip the hassle and just buy Noctuna.

This is a great cpu cooler that is quiet and low profile. This is cooling my Ryzen 7 3700X and keeping the temperatures steady and ideal. I would like to see a newer method by Noctua for mounting this type of cooler. Having to secure the unit from underneath is doable just takes some coordination. Overall the device is great and works flawless. I would like to see some option for a fan RGB. This is an excellent purchase for those who may be building an ITX system also. Noctua gets my vote for Quality and Performance.

Love how it looks, but unfortunately my Silverstone Sugo SG13 case doesnt show the cooler. My 3700x idles at about 40°C. Installation was easy and I liked how much thermal paste was included - should be plenty for multiple installs. Only really audible at full power as set in my UEFI, otherwise I cant hear it over normal background noise.

This guy is like me. Slim and handsome :p

I use this in my Ncase M1 (glass panels) on my AMD Ryzen 7 3800X. Averages around 43 C and tops out at 70C. This is very impressive considering it is currently 90+F weather and inside my house is at an average temp of 85F

Great product, it knocked my CPU temperature down 20 degrees C vs. my stock ryzen wraith. I only took a star off because it is very difficult to install without removing your motherboard. For a new build it would be easy but if you are upgrading it will be a challenge. Also there are no extra screws so if one rolls off somewhere you might be in for trouble.
