Compact low-profile cooler with a total height of 65 mm (ideal for HTPC, ITX, and small cases)
Does not interfere with memory or PCIe slots on most modern motherboards.
Equipped with highly optimized NF-A9 x 14 slim 92 mm fans with PWM automatic speed control function and low noise adapter for ultra-quiet operation.
Comes with high-end NT-H1 thermal paste and SecuFirm2 mounting system for easy installation on Intel LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200, LGA115x and AMD AM5, AM4 (offset mounting option for highest efficiency)
Please use the recommended CPU environment with low heat dissipation. (Please refer to Noctua Web's compatibility list.) Example: Intel 14900K, 14700K, 14600K or AMD Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D, 7700, etc.
The NH-L9x65 is a higher performance version of Noctua's award-winning NH-L9 low profile cooler. The NH-L9x65 features a 4 heat pipes instead of 2 heat pipes & 65mm height instead of 37mm design for a smaller and more powerful 95x95mm footprint.
It also guarantees 100% RAM and PCIe compatibility on Intel's ITX motherboards, allowing easier access to nearby socket connectors without overhanging them. Additionally, with the optimized NF-A9x14 premium fan with fully automatic speed adjustable PWM function, the NH-L9x65 offers extremely quiet performance. Featuring an exclusive Intel & AMD compatible SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system, Noctua's famous NT-H1 thermal compound, and a 6-year manufacturer's warranty, the NH-L9x65 offers users a compact premium package for limited space.
Note: The NH-L9x65 is a compact low profile cooler designed for use in small form factor cases and HTPC environments. Although it offers top rate performance, it is not suitable for overclocking and should be used with caution on CPUs with TDP (Thermal Design Power) greater than 84W. Please check the guidelines to see if the CPU you are using is compatible with NH-L9x65.
