Noctua NF-A9X14 HS-PWM Chromax Black Fan
Overview
Having received dozens of awards and recommendations from international
hardware websites and magazines, the NF-A9x14 has established itself as a
default choice when it comes to premium-quality slim 92mm fans. The
chromax.black.swap edition combines the NF-A9x14’s signature quiet cooling
performance with an attractive all-black design and a bundle of self-adhesive
red, white, blue, green, yellow and black anti-vibration pads that allow the
colour-customisation of the fan to match individual build colour schemes. Topped
off with Noctua’s trusted premium-grade SSO2 bearing, more than 150,000 hours
MTTF and 6-year manufacturer’s warranty, the NF-9x14 PWM chromax.black.swap is
the perfect choice for all users who value individual, focused build aesthetics
just as much as class-leading quality and performance.
Features
Award-winning NF-A9x14 design
Having received dozens of recommendations from the international press,
Noctuas NF-A9x14 has become a proven premium choice for slim 92mm cooling needs.
Its renowned efficiency has convinced tens of thousands of customers all over
the world.
chromax.black.swap edition
Maximising colour choices, the NF-A9x14 chromax.black.swap fan can be
colour-customised using the included self-adhesive anti-vibration pads as well
as optional coloured cables. This makes it ideal for enthusiasts looking for a
true premium-grade fan that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes
such as all black, black & white or black & red.
Self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in 6
colours
The NF-A9x14 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 8 swappable, self-adhesive
anti-vibration pads in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow respectively,
which allow the fan to be fully colour-customised in order to coordinate it with
other components or popular build schemes.
Optional coloured cables
Noctuas chromax line fans use a modular cabling system and come pre-fitted
with a fully sleeved black NA-EC1 30cm cable. For refined colour coordination,
white, red, blue, green and yellow 30cm NA-EC1 cables plus corresponding NA-YC1
y-cables are available separately.
14mm low profile design
Measuring only 14mm in thickness, the NF-A9x14 is much slimmer than standard
92x25mm fans. This makes it ideal for all applications where standard fans would
take up too much space, such as low profile CPU coolers in HTPC builds or server
environments.
Flow Acceleration Channels
The NF-A9x14 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By
speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces
suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower
vortex noise.
AAO frame
Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated
anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua's proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and
Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan's
performance/noise efficiency.
Stepped Inlet Design
Noctua's Stepped Inlet Design adds turbulence to the influx in order to
facilitate the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow, which reduces
tonal intake noise, improves flow attachment and increases suction capacity,
especially in space-restricted environments.
Inner Surface Microstructures
With the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created
by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of
the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing
noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency.
SSO2 Bearing
The NF-A9x14 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's
renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer
to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability.
Custom-designed PWM IC with SCD
Supporting fully automatic PWM speed control, the NF-A9x14 uses Noctua's
novel, custom-designed NE-FD1 PWM IC that integrates Smooth Commutation Drive
(SCD) technology. By providing smoother torque impulses, SCD suppresses PWM
switching noises and thus makes the fan quieter at lower speeds.
Stops at 0% PWM
When the fan is set to 0% PWM duty cycle by the motherboard or PWM fan
controller, it will stop. This makes it ideal for creating setups with
semi-passive cooling that automatically turn the fans off and thus run
completely silent at idle if thermals allow.
6-year manufacturers warranty
Noctua fans are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding
longevity. Like all Noctua fans, the NF-A9x14 features an MTTF rating of more
than 150.000 hours and comes with a full 6-year manufacturer's
warranty.
