Thanks to the same proven compact 92mm tower heatsink design and NF-A9 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U9S's successful formula of fusing strong cooling performance with excellent quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system, Noctua's enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound and a full 6-year manufacturer's warranty, the NH-U9S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a compact, highly compatible 92mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools. 100% Compatibility with PCIe Cards on mini-ITXMany mini-ITX motherboards have the PCIe slot sitting close to the socket zone. While larger coolers that exceed this zone are likely to block the PCIe slot, the 95x95mm sized NH-U9S provides full compatibility with PCIe cards, be it on ATX, microATX or ITX.
100% RAM CompatibilityWith its 95x95xmm footprint, the NH-U9S does not overhang the RAM slots on current Intel and most AMD motherboards. This gives the user full access to the memory modules and guarantees 100% compatibility with tall RGB modules, large heat-spreaders or optional memory fans.
NF-A9 Premium FanThe highly optimised NF-A9 features Noctua's proprietary AAO frame as well as sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, which allow it to further improve the renowned efficiency of Noctua's previous 92mm models and contributes to the NH-U9S's superior cooling performance.Award-Winning NH-U9S CoolerTens of thousands of enthusiast users all over the world swear by the NH-U9S's quality and performance.
