NH-L9a-AM4 Low Profile CPU Cooler
The NH-L9a-AM4 is the latest, AM4-specific revision of Noctuas award-winning NH-L9a low-profile CPU cooler for AMD Ryzen-based HTPCs and Small Form Factor (SFF) systems. At a height of only 37mm, the NH-L9a is ideal for extremely slim cases and, due to its small footprint, it provides 100% RAM and PCIe compatibility as well as easy access to near-socket connectors even on tightly packed mini-ITX motherboards. The custom-designed SecuFirm2 mounting system for the AM4 socket makes installation childs play and, thanks to the highly optimised NF-A9x14 92mm fan that supports fully automatic speed control via PWM, the NH-L9a-AM4 runs remarkably quietly. Topped off with Noctuas renowned NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-L9a-AM4 combines everything users have come to expect from Noctuas larger coolers into a super-compact, premium-quality package for ITX and HTPC builds with Ryzen CPUs or APUs.
