Improvement over the Intel Stock Cooler, Simple, small design ensures no clearance issues, Easy installation, SecuFirm 2 mounting system works with any Noctua cooler, 6Year warranty, Silent performance.
Performance is not adequate for high TDP processors, Really expensive lowprofile cooler.
In reference to it's competition, the Noctua NH-L9x65 is a top of the line cooler with great technical features such as advanced Flow Acceleration Channels that allow the blades of it's 92 mm fan to be more airflow efficient and reduce noise caused by the...

Price, High Quality, Small Size, Easy Install
Cooling Limitations, Not everyone will appeal to the fan color,
The Noctua NH-L9x65 may have some cooling limitations in extreme overclocking conditions but if you have limited space and are in need of a cooler that can handle the stock load, look no further because the Noctua NH-L9x65 will meet those demands! 1 2 3 4...
Abstract: While the NH-L9x65 is much more compact than the typical CPU cooler, it isn't as small as many others. The key benefit of coolers like the ITX30 and NH-L9i comes from their height... I would not be able to fit the NH-L9x65 in to the Mini-ITX cases that I...
For the NH-L9x65 you need to understand the purpose, silence. And that is intended for low-end to mainstream processors. We tested high-end/enthusiast level and that paints a little bit of a different picture. With its low profile, a suitable alternative...
Small Form Factor, Noctua Mounting System, Four Heatpipe Configuration, High Performance Fan
Works best on low wattage processors
With the popularity of MiniITX motherboards there has been a push for companiles to make smaller computer cases. As these cases shrink to take advantage of the smaller form factor it becomes increasingly difficult to find a good aftermarket heatsink that ...
Unmatched quality and attention to detail, unique form factor, the best manual and mounting mechanism in the business,
By default runs louder than stock Intel cooler, will not support extreme overclocking, expensive
Ultimately, the Noctua NH-L9x65 cannot be judged based on its price alone, as it would have to compete against big tower-style coolers that vastly outperform it. Instead, it must be viewed in the context of its form factor. Being constrained to the footpr...

Excellent choice for DIY HTPC and SFF PC Setups, Made for both AMD and Intel Platforms, Additional cooling thanks to 4x nickel plated copper heatpipe, 6 Years Warranty, 95mm x 95mm x 65mm footprint
Noctua NFA9x14 PWM fan is little audible at max and constant RPM of 2500.
Noctua NH-L9x65 works very nicely with low TDP processor. It's a low-profile CPU cooler that's not bigger than 95x95mm footprint. Exactly as advertised. With a lower TDP rated processor, like the Intel Pentium G3258, you can give a fairly good overclock. ...

about the Noctua NH-L9x65Deceptively simple looking with its 95×95 square layout and short stature, make no mistake, the Noctua NH-L9x65 is a serious piece of cooler engineering. While the original NH-L9 was about getting the shortest height possible, it...
