If you’re in need of a cooler that fits within super small form factor cases – such as a Mini-ITX case or a really small Micro-ATX, you would usually have to rely on the stock cooler. Intel’s stock coolers are actually quite good at stock speeds – they are small, and low profile, but can get a bit noisy and hot under load. Noctua seeks to remedy that with a cooler that is just as small, but features a lot more dissipation area, and even has a pair of copper pipes to drive the heat from the bottom of the heatsink to the fins more efficiently. Today we’re reviewing the Noctua NH-L9i, compatible with LGA-1155, 1156, and upcoming LGA-1150 (Haswell) processors: hardcoreware.net |
