NH-U9S
[T]he fact that the NH-U9S managed to keep our system running even at heavy load is really very important and shows just what this very small CPU Cooler is capable of. Of course even the much cheaper Raijintek managed to keep our system running but the NH-U9S performed better. Now normally the 4.5 degrees Celsius between these two similarly sized coolers (the Raijintek Aidos is 136mm tall however) isn't something that I’d tell people to pay over twice as much for but the NH-U9S is also 5.3dBA quieter and for HTPC users that's a big deal. And then you have the top notch craftsmanship Noctua alone can offer and although the end user is paying for that (naturally) i think it's well worth the extra money especially since the NH-U9S is covered by a 6 year warranty.
"Noctua is amongst a handful of manufacturers that put quality and performance before cost for their products and their latest NH-U9S is one such bright example." (Nik Kastrantas, NikKTech.com)
