    I purchased this initially for a 3600x which I exchanged for a 5600x for a SFF build (which turned into a micro ATX build).

    It does heatsink stuff. Works very well in a NR200P with a 5600x.

    Same great performance I was getting from my old NH-L9a-AM4, but black. Looks very nice in my S4M.

    Running this cooler on an ultra mini case and keeps the 5600x around 50 to 60c. This cooler is absolutely perfect for low power processors

    Like how low it sits on the motherboard

    Super quite. Way nicer than the stock AMD coolers

    I bought this to replace a tower-style cooler that didnt fit well with my updated RAM. Installation is straight forward and simple if your board is not installed in the case. On-case installation (like mine) is a little trickier as you need to use the backplate provided and do the adjustments vertically. In terms of performance, I have no complaints, it performs as good as my old cooler in a significantly smaller package, which is definitely a highlight. Probably the major drawback is the price, but in my opinion is worth it

The NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning NH-L9a-AM4 low-profile quiet CPU cooler for AMD Ryzen based HTPCs and Small Form Factor (SFF) builds. Thanks to the same proven heatsink design and NF-A9x14 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-L9a-AM4’s successful formula of fusing a height of only 37mm with strong performance and excellent quietness of operation, as well as 100% RAM and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 low-profile mounting system for AMD AM4 and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek an ultra-compact heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

37mm low profile

Due to the slim 23mm heatsink and the NF-A9x14 low profile fan that measures only 14mm in thickness, the NH-L9 stands a mere 37mm tall, which makes it ideal for use in compact HTPCs or Small Form Factor cases that offer minimum clearance for CPU coolers.

100% RAM compatibility

The NH-L9a-AM4 has a compact footprint that fully complies with the socket keep-out zones specified by AMD. This means that neither the heatsink nor the fan overhang the RAM, so the cooler provides easy access to the slots and is fully compatible with tall memory modules.

100% compatibility with PCIe cards on mini-ITX

Some AMD-based mini-ITX motherboards have the PCIe slot located close to the CPU socket zone. While larger coolers that exceed this zone may block the PCIe slot, the compact-sized NH-L9a-AM4 provides full compatibility with PCIe cards.

Custom-designed SecuFirm2 mounting for AM4

The NH-L9a-AM4 comes with a custom-designed SecuFirm2 mounting system for the AM4 socket of AMD’s Ryzen platform. Allowing the heatsink to be fixed from the back of the motherboard, it makes installation easier than ever, all while maintaining the trusted SecuFirm2 quality.
