Review on Noctua NF-A9 PWM: Premium Quiet 4-Pin Fan (92mm, Brown) - Efficient Cooling Solution by Serguei Mracek

I have a lot of Noctua fans. I knew immediately that it was much better. As soon as I opened the box, I could feel the difference in build quality and weight compared to the stock Kraken G12 fan. I don't think it was necessary to replace the stock fan, but I like to keep a cool head. The RPMs are much higher than the stock finish, and while I know it's not very scientific to say, just using my hand to feel how much air is being pushed out, it was pretty obvious that the Noctua fan pushed 2 or 3 times as much air. as a warehouse. fan even with the same noise level. At 1500 rpm, the series fan runs at full speed and seems rather weak, but quiet. The Noctua pushes out a lot more air at the same speed and is almost inaudible. It's very audible at full speed, so adjust the fan curve accordingly. The noise at full speed is not disturbing, but there. You get all the usual accessories, extenders, splitters, LNA etc. I use splitters in my build and for me the accessories that come with it are great value and you get a quality fan. Most of my Noctuas have been made in China including this one and I don't see any difference in performance compared to the Taiwanese ones.
