Abstract: If you're a regular visitor to the pages of OC3D you'll no have noticed a bit of dearth of cooler reviews. The reason for this is simple, we've retired the old 2011 rig and have been busy specking up and putting together a new test rig. Not that the 2011...
If you want big block CPU cooler performance in your small chassis, this maybe for you. From a consumer experience point of view, there isn't anything bad about this cooler, and there is a lot good about it, though go for the two fan option, and you will...
Abstract: The Noctua NH-U9S CPU Air Cooler is the little brother to the U12S and U14S coolers and is more compatible than the U9BSE2 cooler. It comes with lots of aluminum fins, 5 cooper heatpipes and a cooper base. All the joints are soldered and it's nickel plate...
While the NH-U9S is a little to expensive to be considered a budget cooling-solution, at $59.99 it certainly doesn't break the bank either. It's also slightly larger than the NH-D9L with only a single fan installed, but does out perform that cooler as we...
The Noctua NH-D9L and NH-U9S CPU coolers provide an interesting comparison to the normal super high-end air coolers we've seen from the vendor. Both feature the standard stunning aesthetics common to Noctua coolers - chromed bodies with tan and brown fans...

Abstract: It's only natural that larger coolers will have more cooling potential . You will notice that “potential” is in italics, because that is what it is. More mass means greater potential, but the execution of the design plays a huge role in its ultimate perfo...

High Quality Materials, Easy to Install, Accessory Bundle, High Performance Fans, Memory Clearance
Price a little on high side, Fan Color may not appeal to everyone,
The NH-U9S may be small in size but packs the cooling capabilities of a Behemoth cooler. If you are in the market for a cooler that will not suck up volume inside your case, look no further because the NH-U9S will blow your mind with the cooling capabil...

I posted three 92mm CPU Air coolers together- U9S, D9L from Noctua and Coolermaster Hyper D92. If you plan on getting higher overclocks, check out the Noctua NH-U12S, NH-U14S and the monster of a dual tower CPU cooler- the NH-D15.The Noctua NH-U9S makes a...
Small Form Factor, Excellent Performance, Noctua Mounting System, Five Heatpipe Configuration, Dual Fan Options
Works best on low wattage processors, Can interfere with motherboard heatsinks
With the popularity of MiniITX and MicroATX motherboards there has been a push for smaller computer cases. The Noctua NH-U9S is a cooler designed to meet the demands of the 3U chassis market by giving you a high performance alternative to the Intel OEM co...
This is the best of two worlds. Cliché I know, but for now it holds true. Earlier I mentioned the two new models of low profile tower coolers recently introduced by Noctua. Previously I noted how the low profile the NH-D9L dual tower cooler could hold its...
