## Description

Product Description Recommended and awarded dozens of times by the Trade Press and IT websites around the world, the NF-A9 has established itself as an undisputed reference for high-end 92mm fans. The chromax.black.swap version maintains the performance and level of silence that characterizes the NF-A9 while offering a 100% black look complemented by an assortment of anti-vibration silentblocks in different colors (red, white, blue, green, yellow and black). These allow aesthetic customization of the fan and a personalized integration according to the color themes of the different configurations. To further increase the level of customization, a wide range of accessories – such as cables and coloured fasteners – are available for sale. Combined with the premium Noctua SSO2 bearing and an MTTF of over 150,000 hours, the NF-A9 PWM chromax.black.swap is undoubtedly the ideal choice for users who value quality and performance as much as aesthetics and customization capabilities. AAO Frame Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames are equipped with anti-vibration silentblocks and benefit from exclusive optimizations that push the limits of performance and silence even further: Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures. Interchangeable anti-vibration silentblocks in 6 colours The NF-A9 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with NA-AVP5 anti-vibration silentblocks: 4 pieces in white, red, blue, green and yellow and 8 black. Paired with a variety of color accents or in "Full Black" mode, the fan can immediately match most popular color themes. It is also possible to purchase an additional NA-SAVP5 kit to equip both sides with silentblocs of one and the same color. Bearing SSO2 The NF-A9s are equipped with the famous Noctua bearing benchmark: the SSO. This is the new generation, even more optimized. The SSO2 is indeed equipped with a rear magnet closer to the axis for greater accuracy, durability and stability. Flow Acceleration Channels The turbine of the NF-A9 is equipped with flow ductors on the suction side of the fan. The acceleration of the flow generated at the ends of the blades creates a more massive, less dispersed suction, thereby increasing efficiency while reducing noise disturbance related to vortices. Colorful Optional Cables Noctua fans in the chromax line use a modular cabling system and come with a pre-sheathed 30cm black cable: the NA-EC1. For those who want an even more personalized aesthetic, you should know that 30cm NA-EC1 cables, as well as their Y-counterparts (called NA-YC1) are available for sale in the following colors: white, red, blue, green and yellow. Series chromax.black.swap With a wide range of colours, Noctua fans from the chromax.black.swap series can be customised with the included anti-vibration silentblocks as well as the optional cable ties and cables.

Review: Perfect littles fan - Brought to replace the stock fan on a AMD heat sink. Primarily for aesthetic purposes, to match the the black and white theme of the case. Even transferred the AMD sticker from the original fan. No issue with fitting the fan as alligned and clipped in nicely. Brought temperatures down by an average of 3 degrees. May not sound much however the CPU goes up only to 61 degrees with stress benching and idles around 32 degrees as only a 65w CPU. Fan is nice and quiet and I don't run it above 50%. Comes with a variety of rubber corner colours to choose from, but no Linus orange for his fans. These didn't come with my original fans and had to be brought separate back then. So was a nice addition to the pack. The PWM extension cable for the fan is slightly shorter than I would like. Plan to buy an extension cable to run it behind the motherboard to conceal it, rather than have it on display. Had a variety of fans from other manufacturers and can honestly say unless your a argb/RGB addict that noctua are perfect fans for the job.
Review: Great little fan, replacement for my cpu cooler - Great little fan, needed it for my Be Quiet Pure Rock Slim CPU Cooler as the original fan was playing up and making weird noises when playing Cyberpunk and other games that need high processing power. Sounds quiet even on full blast.
