NH-U9S CHROMAX BLACK
The NH-U9S chromax.black
is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning NH-U9S premium-quality
quiet CPU cooler. 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.
Award-winning NH-U9S cooler
Tens of thousands of enthusiast users all over the world
swear by the NH-U9S’s quality and performance. Recommended by more than 100
international hardware websites and magazines, it is renowned as being one of
the best 92mm coolers on the market.
chromax.black design
The NH-U9S chromax.black is black from head to toe:
Featuring a black coated heatsink, a black fan with black anti-vibration pads,
black fan clips and black mounting parts, it is right at home in all-black
builds and easy to integrate with other colour schemes.
Colour-customisable
Using the optional NA-SAVP5 anti-vibration pads (available
in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U9S chromax.black can be
fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or
black and white.
100% RAM compatibility
With its 95x95mm footprint, the NH-U9S does not overhang the
RAM slots on current Intel and most AMD mainboards. This gives the user full
access to the memory modules and guarantees 100% compatibility with tall RGB
modules, large heatspreaders or optional memory fans.
100% compatibility with PCIe cards on mini-ITX
Many 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 95x95xmm sized NH-U9S provides full compatibility with
PCIe cards, be it on ATX, microATX or ITX.
NF-A9 premium fan
The highly optimised features Noctua's proprietary AAO frame
as well as sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration
Channels, which allows it to further improve the renowned efficiency of
Noctua's previous 92mm models and contributes to the NH-U9S' superior cooling
performance.
Dual fan ready
The NH-U9S chromax.black includes an extra set of fan
mounting clips for users who want to achieve even better cooling performance by
adding a second, optional NF-A9 PWM chromax.black.swap fan in order to create a
push/pull setup.
SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system
Noctua’s SecuFirm2™ mounting systems have become synonymous
with quality, safety and easy installation. Supporting Intel LGA115x (LGA1150,
LGA1151, LGA1155, LGA1156, LGA1200) and LGA20xx (LGA2066, LGA2011-0,
LGA2011-3), as well as AMD AM4, AM3(+), AM2(+), FM2(+) and FM1, the SecuFirm2™
mounting included with the NH-U9S is straightforward to install, provides
perfect contact pressure and will stand the test of time even under heavy use.
Compatibility with past and future sockets
Thanks to Noctua’s SecuFirm™ ecosystem, the NH-U9S can be
made compatible with the older LGA1366 and LGA775 sockets using the optional
NM-I3 mounting kit, which is provided free of charge. If technically possible,
Noctua will also provide upgrade kits for future sockets, which makes the
NH-U9S a safe long-term investment.
NT-H1 thermal compound
Having received more than 100 awards and recommendations
from hardware journalists around the world, Noctua's NT-H1 is a proven
professional grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance,
excellent ease of use and outstanding reliability.
Soldered interface between heatpipes and fins
With many heatsinks, the fins are press-fitted to the
heatpipes. Due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of copper and
aluminium, this fit can loosen over years of thermal cycling, which may lead to
reduced performance. By contrast, the NH-U9S’s fins are soldered to the
heatpipes in order to guarantee a superior thermal interface that doesn’t
deteriorate even after many years of usage.
6-year manufacturer’s warranty
Noctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality
and outstanding longevity. True to this legacy, the NH-U9S heatsink is built to
last and, like all Noctua fans, the supplied NF-A9 units feature an MTTF rating
of more than 150,000 hours. The entire package comes with a full 6-year manufacturer’s
warranty.
