  • Abstract:  A CPU cooler can be very cheap, very expensive and can even cost you up to 100 euros. For this article we tested 39 current CPU coolers and try to find out which one has the best cooling, is the quietest or ideally which one excels at both. Every pro...

  • Now it's time for my final thoughts on the Noctua NH-L9i Low Profile CPU Cooler designed for socket LGA 115X CPU's, how does it compare to its bigger brothers and how does it cope with the extreme heat of Haswell combined with a nice hot summers day? Wel...

  • When we have reviewed previous, larger, Noctua coolers the build quality and design of each has been top notch but there was always the concern that this wouldn't be the case with such a compact model. There would maybe have to be compromises in the ultra...

  • Very small size, Unlikely to cause clearance issues with RAM, VRM heatsinks and motherboard components, 6 year warranty, Lownoise adapter supplied and PWM fan, Can handle high overclocks for a cooler of its size,
  • A well-designed CPU cooler that eliminates the worry about space constraints and component clearance. ...

  • Noctua are recommending a price of $47.90/€39.90 for the NH-L9i. For British customers this translates into approximately £33. Obviously there will be variance between retailers depending on their pricing strategies and delivery costs but generally speaki...

  • The Transcend StoreJet 25H3 3TB retails at RM 629.00 of which I think is an excellent price for an external drive of such caliber. You might be wondering – aren't 3TB external drives priced at RM 400 – 500 range? Yes they are but the strength of the Store...

  • COOLING PERFORMANCE FOR ITS SIZE, ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE, SUPER COMPACT FORM FACTOR, EXCELLENT BUILD QUALITY, BUNDLE AND PRESENTATION, 6 YEAR WARRANTY
  • PRICE POINT OF A TOWER COOLER
  • The NH-L9i is no ordinary low profile cooler from the guys at Noctua. It is definitely 91W TDP capable, even able to dissipate the heat of an overclocked Core i5-6600K at 4.4GHz.What's also praise worthy is the bundled NF-A9x14 fan. It is modified to run...

  • Si bien ya Noctua ha presentado sus coolers de bajo perfil, esta vez renueva su diseño (de cobre /aluminio) y estética con el NH-L9i chromax.black para sockets LGA115x de Intel con dimensiones ideales para computadoras de bajo perfil (HTPC por ejemplo) en...
