Noctua NH-L9x65, Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler (65mm, Brown)

To start this off I’m going to say I went from a broken Intel 2012 stock cooler to this and the difference is instantly noticeable. Towards the end of my stock cooler, the plastic mounts broke so the heat sink would not fit correctly on top of the cpu. I was getting temperatures of 40-50 c idle and 100-105 c when running monster hunter world (a cpu intensive game). With this new cooler I have an idle temp around 25-35 c and it will not go above 60 c when playing monster hunter. So it cools perfectly fine. My only issue, and it’s not even an issue really, is the installation. I have an old case so I had to take apart my whole pc pretty much to get the back plate on. That part was easy enough besides the time it took, the only frustrating thing was putting the fan on the mount. It’s a bit tricky to get both screws in but once you do you’re golden. I gave installation 3 stars for this, however I don’t think you can really do much to improve it. The fan is quiet and efficient. Mounting was straight forward and only a little bit tricky. If you know what you’re doing you won’t have a problem. I’d recommend this fan to anyone trying to replace their intel stock cooler if they don’t plan to over clock. Comes with thermal paste, and a nice screw driver. Nice touch. My cpu is an Intel corei5 3450 3.1(3.4 boost) gghz

This cooler exceeds all my expectations. Install was a breeze, possibly the easiest cpu cooler install I've ever done. Dropped temps by up to 50% at idle and under load. So quiet I can't even hear it. I have 3x120mm and 3x80mm fans in my mid tower InWin case and I never realized it was the CPU cooler making the most noise. Amazing upgrade. On first impressions, I'm very glad I decided to try a Noctua product. With this little beast installed, I'm running 20-25c at idle and running TW WarHammer at ultra settings on a 980GTX 4GB in a massive campaign I'm barely tipping 50c under load. That's still 25% or more less temp than the stock fan did brand new with Arctic's best avail thermal paste. ( I used the included NT-H1 paste since my order of the MX-4 paste was delayed in being shipped out. I'll send it back I guess. I figured if Noctua included this paste, they trust it. Was a full 4g tube.) I had a 6 year old stock intel cooler for my i5-2500k I OC'd about `15% with no issues of any kind for all those years but lately was not performing well at all keeping my CPU around 40-50c at idle and up to 81c under load. The fan was no longer revving up with the Asus AI Suite controls or manual control (ROG Gene-IV Maximus). Recently it became a bit sluggish, and more recently it began to set off temp alerts. Was going to try a Corsair Hydro H60 but as much as I had to bend the hoses to fit into location in my case I felt the connections were going to be stressed so decided against it and issued an RMA. With the lack of actual pressure inside the cooling system I'm not sure why high pressure hoses are used...they are quite stiff. Should be able to accomplish the same thing with a high strength, thin walled, and highly-flexible tubing for roughly the same price. Definitely going to Install one of Noctuas supersize coolers in my upcoming i7-7700k build instead of going liquid. More peace of mind and obviously outstanding cooling technology. Sure wish the fans had color options though. I don't look inside a lot but these colors certainly don't fit anything I've ever put into a PC case in almost 30 years of building PC's. *yeah, all the way back to when RAM was measured in MB! :o I'd paint them but that's not a long-term solution. The slightest amount of weight off center throws the fans a bit out of balance and shortens their life a great deal. I'll let it work as intended and sit comfy with that amazing 6 year warranty.

Purchased to replace the stock heatsink that came with Intel Core i7-8700 for noise reduction because the stock fan sounded like a weed whacker in the distance when CPU temp rose under load. Instructions were very easy to follow. Parts were all labeled and keyed in such a way that it would be very difficult or impossible to install the wrong way. Noctua fan is extremely quiet with the low-noise adapter. 100% speed reports 1800 RPM, and it is barely audible while still moving plenty of air. Idle temperatures unchanged. (36C) Improved temperatures under load! Peak temperatures during CPU-Z bench test dropped from 98C to 76C. No difference in benchmark performance score, but gives a good 25C of overhead before thermal throttling occurs. The build quality of the Noctua heatsink looks and feels fantastic next to the dinky aluminum sink that came with the CPU. Slightly taller, same footprint, but so much more surface area for heat removal. Fit into Antec VSK2000-U3 Micro ATX case with 1-2cm clearance with case door. Could probably fit a 25mm thick fan on there if desired; there is a higher set of notches on the heatsink, presumably for the clips to hold a non-slim fan. But the slim fan that comes with the set is quiet and performs well, as expected of Noctua products. Modular fan interface is nice. Will be an easy replacement if ever needed. (If only GPU fan systems would do the same.)

Keeps my Intel i5-14600K at 46 degrees under load in a small Fractal Node 803 NAS chassi with 4 HDDs, 2 SATA SSDs and 1 WD Black NVMe SSD, ambient temp of 20 degrees. Fits nicely in the somewhat cramped chassi. No noticible noise.

Keeps the 5600G of my HTPC 7 decrees celsius colder than the stock cooler and is a lot quieter.

Uno dei dissipatori migliori a questo prezzo, forse non il più bello esteticamente, ma esiste anche la versione black per davvero pochi euro in più. Silenziosissimo, e rispetto al dissipatore stock a carico massimo ho in media poco più di 10 gradi in meno. Può essere utilizzato anche per un leggero overclock della cpu in qualche caso, ma per l'overclock si dovrebbe comprare il noctua che sta al doppio del prezzo e se si ha un case/scheda madre che consento il montaggio, è ingombrante. Io l'ho montato su una gigabyte z370, ci entra benissimo. Consiglio di montarlo in 2 persone, e se non avete il case aperto dietro, e avete già montato il pc, dovete smontare tutto, siccome ha la "griglia"dietro. Montaggio spiegato passo per passo davvero molto bene in un comodissimo e piccolo libretto di istruzioni. in oltre nel pacco sono inclusi anche il cacciavite e pasta termica della noctua, non la migliore in assoluto, ma comunque è davvero molto buona. Assolutamente consigliato come prodotto, silenziosità e basse temperature, uno dei migliori best buy, se non vi interessano colori e lucine, ma una dissipazione che funziona davvero.

Everything is missing.. the toolkit was missing.. the screws were missing.. the cooler was used and had a thermal compound on it.. the thermal compound itself was missing ..n the main Mount was missing.. it shipped from Calcutta XRIG sales ..
