NH-U9S
When we look at the broad picture, Noctua seems to know CPU cooling well, both big and small. The Noctua NH-U9S is again a similar story, demonstrating excellent build quality and aesthetics. All of the design choices were optimized for a low noise and high performance balance, and it shows in our tests. As for performance, much like the ukulele, the NH-U9S is very capable when considering its size, and performs on par with what we expect. We never expected it to perform close to its larger sized heatsinks, but these numbers from our performance tests are still quite good. It is also more capable than the Intel stock cooler, and keeps your processor cool where it otherwise would be fried. The NF-A9 fans fitted to the NH-U9S are also superb, and provide cooling without sacrificing the quietness.
"When it comes to computer cooling, good things come in Noctua packaging, and the NH-U9S is no different." (Aaron Lai, APHNetworks.com)
