Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.Black Low-Profile CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Black)
Product Description

The NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning NH-L9a-AM4 low-profile quiet CPU cooler for AMD Ryzen based HTPCs and Small Form Factor (SFF) builds. Thanks to the same proven heatsink design and NF-A9x14 PWM fan it stays true to the NH-L9a-AM4’s successful formula of fusing a height of only 37mm with strong performance and excellent quietness of operation as well as 100% RAM 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 low-profile mounting system for AMD AM4 and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound the NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek an ultra-compact heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

^{37mm low profile}

Due to the slim 23mm heatsink and the NF-A9x14 low profile fan that measures only 14mm in thickness the NH-L9 stands a mere 37mm tall which makes it ideal for use in compact HTPCs or Small Form Factor cases that offer minimum clearance for CPU coolers.

^{100% RAM compatibility}

The NH-L9a-AM4 has a compact footprint that fully complies with the socket keep-out zones specified by AMD. This means that neither the heatsink nor the fan overhang the RAM so the cooler provides easy access to the slots and is fully compatible with tall memory modules.

^{100% compatibility with PCIe cards on mini-ITX}

Some AMD-based mini-ITX motherboards have the PCIe slot located close to the CPU socket zone. While larger coolers that exceed this zone may block the PCIe slot the compact-sized NH-L9a-AM4 provides full compatibility with PCIe cards.

^{Custom-designed SecuFirm2 mounting for AM4}

The NH-L9a-AM4 comes with a custom-designed SecuFirm2 mounting system for the AM4 socket of AMD’s Ryzen platform. Allowing the heatsink to be fixed from the back of the motherboard it makes installation easier than ever all while maintaining the trusted SecuFirm2 quality.
