Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Noctua NH-L9i chromax.Black - High-Performance, Low-Profile CPU Cooler for Intel LGA115x (Black) by Kathy Jaramillo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice looking low profile cooler for i7-10700

I wanted to build a little minimalist and decided to buy this cooler because of its color and size. I hooked it up to an i7-10700 processor on a Z490 ITX board. Very easy to install. I did the following steps Step 1: Apply thermal paste to the CPU Step 2: Turn the cooler upside down and place it on a flat surface Step 3: Turn the mainboard upside down and align it with the cooler Step 4: Screw in the cooler while playing COD MW. The fan is quiet for small tasks. The fan will be louder during gaming, but not louder than GPU fan. I have it in a NZXT 510 case with 2 intake and 2 exhaust fans, but the rear is not covered due to the short SFX power supply cable. I will be porting this setup to the Cooler Master NR200 as soon as it becomes available.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Long time
