NF-A9x14 PWM, High-Performance Quiet Fan 92mm

I’ve been building PCs for a while, gaming, content creation, and sometimes even working on tight low-profile builds. Noctua fans are always a go-to for me, and the NF-A9x14 PWM is no exception. First off, the looks: let’s be real, the classic beige-and-brown Noctua color scheme is not exactly pretty, and honestly, it never matches my cases. But honestly, you buy these for the performance, not the aesthetics. The airflow is excellent for such a slim (92x14mm) fan, and the noise levels are super low. I used this one for one of my early Ryzen builds and it held up for years, still ran like new when I finally upgraded my setup. One of the reasons I stick with Noctua is the reliability. Their quality control is top tier. This fan worked perfectly out of the box, no issues with installation, and always maintained good thermals in my system. I’ve never had a Noctua fan die on me, and their thermal paste kits are just as good, always my go-to for builds. Yes, Noctua fans cost a bit more than the cheap brands, but it’s worth it for the peace of mind. You get what you pay for: quiet operation, long lifespan, and consistently good airflow. The included 4-pin PWM connector means it’s compatible with basically any modern motherboard, and you get precise fan control in BIOS or with your favorite software. For anyone who builds their own PCs, whether you’re a gamer, a content creator, or just want a reliable and quiet fan, Noctua is a name you can trust. I’m a bit of a tech junkie, and I always find myself coming back to Noctua for any important cooling job. Overall: not the prettiest fan, but easily one of the best on the market for performance and reliability. Highly recommended for any DIY build.

This is a very good quality fan that has a great cooling capacity due to the rpm 1700-2200 depending on your needs. It comes with cables for different setups, and a low noise adapter. It also has a low profile design making it a perfect fit to rreplace the fan in the amateur radio G90 cooling fan base. It is very quiet and worth the price. Simple to install and runs very efficiently. Would buy again and would recommend for other uses.

Dead silent with great airflow (everything I've come to expect from Noctua). I got this as a replacement for a failing fan on a Thermalright cooler in a compact Mini-ITX Ryzen build. This Noctua produces more airflow at lower RPM than the original (even when it was new). In hindsight, I should have just used the Noctua L9a cooler (which includes this fan) in the first place.

I use 2 Noctua fans in my Media PC. It's a mini ITX case, with an ATX Power Supply Unit. That leaves very little room inside for clunky coolers! The Noctua low-profile CPU cooler, uses this exact model 90mm fan. I built this PC almost 7 years ago, and have never replaced the Notua fan on the CPU cooler! I do clean my system every 6 months or so, and remove dust, but have never oiled the fan since it's install. To my amazement, it has not failed! I've turned and spun the fan by hand a few times, and it still freely flows. I also have a BeQuiet PSU, which has it's original fan. I noticed that when the room is cold, there is a very slight vibration noise from one of the fans (probably the PSU fan) which goes away after a minute or so of running. After almost 7 years, I am amazed that this slight noise is only just starting to creep in. So, I installed a Noctua 140mm fan in the PSU (since it's out of warranty now anyway) and replaced the CPU cooler fan with this Noctua 90mm fan (a like for like replacement). In my previous setup, I was not using the low-noise connector that you get in the Noctua box. However, this time I installed the low-noise connector on both the CPU fan and the PSU fan, and connected both fans directly to the Motherboard for optimum fan performance and monitoring. Without the low-noise connectors, the system was extremely quiet and never intruded on my movies or TV shows. And now with the low-noise connectors installed, the system is so quiet you cannot hear it at all! I also have a passively cooled nVidia GT1030 graphics card in the case, creating additional heat and have not noticed any problems or noise increase. Quiet - With the low-noise connector, I have to shine a flashlight into the case to see if the fans are spinning! >.< Effective - My tiny mini-ITX case remains cool and operational even after hours of use. Reliable - After almost 7 years of daily use, it's still going strong! Why did I replace it then? Simply for peace of mind. I highly recommend Noctua fans. They're definately worth the money. Additionally in the case, you get a low-noise adapter, Y-splitter cable and extention cable. There are also some low noise rubber mounts.

Nice and quite

I bought this fan 5 years ago. It failed finally last week, but there is no doubt that this is a truly excellent product that has lived up to its name. I had turned it on 24/7 for nearly 5 years without stopping it for a single day on my PC and it has served me very faithfully and quietly, keeping the system cool at all times. When it finally failed this week, I thought I would simply buy a new one to replace it, but was surprised to see on the original box (Yes, I kept it.) stating that the warranty is 6 years. I am based in Singapore and bought this from Amazon USA, and the company is headquartered in Austria. I thought even if I had raised an RMA request, it might be too cumbersome and costly to ship the defective fan back to Noctua in Austria. Still, I tried my luck to write in. Surprisingly, within a day, I was told by a Mr. Anthony Maleschitz from the Noctua Support Team that all I need to do is to break a few blades from the defective fan to render it unusable, and send a picture of the broken fan to him as proof, and that would save me the trouble and cost of shipping back the defective fan. I did as instructed and by the next day, I was informed by Mr. Maleschitz that a replacement fan would be shipped out to me soon (In fact, it was shipped out the next day and I would expect to receive it within 4 days). It's completely hassle free and I am truly touched and impressed by his excellent customer service. I have no doubt at all to recommend this product to anyone who looks forward to buy a genuinely quiet and quality product, and above all, to patronize a company that truly values and takes great care even of a small and faraway customer like me.

Great replacement fan for my cpu-cooler! Keeps the fan noise lower and more bearable for a small form factor build.

Very quiet and runs smooth. It comes with cables, mounting screws and anti-vibration mounts, plus a six-year warranty. Nice slim design at 14mm. I installed inside of the front panel of the computer cover. The main problem I had was mounting it. The mounting hardware included was of no use to me. I needed 3m x 16mm screws so I could use the holes that were predrilled and threaded in the case. If looking for a fan, I would recommend this one.

i had been using a stock cpu fan/heatsink since i built my machine. the cpu fan was getting quite noisy but the heatsink is a great design. i couldn't find any coolers that i liked and didn't wanna spend too much on it either so decided to buy this case fan and attach it to my stock heatsink. first try was to use extra strong velcro. didn't last long. found a youtube tutorial that used cable ties so i got my small reusable cable ties out and after some time fiddling them through and around the heatsink (and after putting it on the wrong way initially) i made it work. in retrospect it really wasn't that difficult and now the pc has become considerably quieter. the original stock fan was 70mm, the heatsink was 90x70 so i thought i'd get a 90mm noctua to replace the 70mm one. it is working really well now. i then went ahead and bought a second noctua fan 90mm to put at the back of my case as the stock case fan was also pretty noisy i realised. I know that i will eventually replace all my case fans with noctua, they are just so quiet, it's amazing, the quality is outstanding. for the case fan i added the speed regulating and extension cable that came with the fan. i used the rubber mounts on the case fan, only 2 of them as there weren't more fitting holes. was a bit fiddly but once in place it's a solid setup even on 2 instead of 4 rubber mounts. was only fiddly because it's at the back of the case under the psu. FYI, cpu fan on 4pin and case fan on 3pin power. both work, 4pin with normal cable and 3pin with speed regulating cable.

Great quality fan for a great price for a pc that needed a tricky size. Quieter than I expected, it's good.

Item shipped fast. Fan is great. Used to replace thermalright axp90X47 stock fan. Seems like almost the same thickness thou. I bought it to lower overall height by 1mm.

Zoals altijd bij Noctua. Erg goede kwaliteit en ook nog eens stil. Ik koop nooit meer andere merken. Door schande wijs geworden zeggen ze dan geloof ik

Serviu perfeitamente para o que eu precisava. Completamente silencioso. É a terceira ventoinha da Noctua que compro desse vendedor e nunca tive problemas.
