Noctua NH-L9i 92mm SSO2 CPU Cooler

Pros: I purchased this CPU cooler to build a low-noise, low-power computer using a Core i3 CPU with a TDP of 35W. With the included low-noise fan adaptor, it runs dead quiet. The last 4 CPU coolers I've purchased were made by Noctua, and I don't plan on changing brands for future builds unless I switch to liquid cooling for a high-end, hot-running CPU (i.e., an Intel X series or AMD Threadripper).

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Note: This cooler should not be used with a CPU having a TDP in excess of 65W.

Pros: Very low profile. Fits into the Node 202 with room to spare. Very easy to install. Quiet.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I would recommend this in a heartbeat.

Pros: - Very quiet! Didn't even know my computer was on until the monitor came to life. - Keeps temps for my i7-8700 under 45 C (note: I'm using standard set up, not overclocking). - Well constructed

Cons: - Hate the form factor that screws it down from the bottom of the MoBo, but that seems to be pretty standard for this socket.

Overall Review: Definitely worth the money. I'm using this in two different builds, and the thing has been doing exactly what it's supposed to without a bunch of flashing lights or gimmicky shapes.

Pros: Works very nicely on an i7 6700 in an ITX setup. Probably quieter than the stock cooler, but it performs much better and the mounting mechanism is far more secure. Doesn't interfere with anything else on the board either.

Cons: NA

Overall Review: Specs: - i7 6700 - Gigabyte Z170N G5 - 16GB RAM - PicoPSU 160W - L1 case - 240GB SSD - 16GB G.SKILL DDR4 Without a doubt the best quality packaging I've ever seen. Good stuff

Pros: Keeps my i7 7700 Cool. Silent fan, even on high speed. Super low profile.

Cons: The cooler secures to the mother board with screws that come up from the bottom of the motherboard. In my case, that meant I had to remove my motherboard. But in the end it was work the extra cooling.

Overall Review: Upgraded from the stock Intel cooler. What a difference that made. Temps were cut in half. Would definitely recommend these coolers.

Pros: I've always heard about Noctua fans and their quality so I bought one for my build. I was blown away, from the open box presentation, to the fan quality, and the included thermal paste. This particular heatsink is very quiet and doesn't take up much space. Perfect for any ITX build. Would buy again, I'm a Noctua fan now.

Cons: None

Pros: Extremely easy to install. With the included low noise adapter it makes absolutely no noise. I can't even tell that it is running. Even with my ear right up to it. I built an HTPC Using a Cooler Master Elite 130 Case and it fits so perfectly that I Honestly believe there is no better choice than this CPU Cooler.

Cons: Not One.

Overall Review: This Noctua Cooler is not my first Noctua product. I have used their fans plenty of times all with excellent results. It is my first Noctua CPU Cooler though and I am blown away. It is cooling an i5-4670K overclocked to 4.2 GHz on an EVGA Z87 Stinger Mini ITX Motherboard with 16GB of GSkill 1866 MHz Ripjaws and the room I have is incredible. It keeps my temps down really low and I just can't stress enough that this Cooler is a perfect choice for anyone needing a Quiet, Small Form Factor CPU Cooler that keeps temps down. A breeze to install as well. You won't be disappointed if you buy this.

Pros: - Since Intel stopped bundling fans I needed a goto cooler for LGA1151, this is it. - The only fan out of 3 that I tried that actually fit the mini-ITX form factor.

Cons: - None
