Noctua NF-A9 PWM korpuso ventiliatorius – 92mm

Noctua is a well-known name in the silent cooling market, with the Austrian manufacturer’s CPU coolers enjoying an excellent reputation. They combine outstanding build quality with high cooling performance and minimal noise levels. This is largely thanks to Noctua’s proprietary fans, which are also sold separately for use as case or CPU fans.

The NF-A9 is a quiet 92 mm premium fan with a square AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame. Its square shape and 92 mm mounting holes make it an excellent choice for use as a case fan. With advanced aerodynamic design measures like Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A9 offers improved silent cooling performance compared to the highly acclaimed NF-B9.

The PWM version is equipped with Noctua’s custom-designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control and comes with a low-noise adapter that reduces the maximum speed from 2,000 to 1,550 RPM. Its performance-oriented top speed and extensive speed control options make the NF-A9 PWM a top-tier solution for users seeking a perfect balance between excellent cooling performance and superb quietness—whether on water cooling radiators, heatsinks, or for case ventilation!

Noctua’s NF-B9 has become a standard solution for PC enthusiasts seeking premium-quality 92 mm fans. With extensive aerodynamic optimisations, the NF-A9 achieves higher static pressure and an improved airflow-to-noise ratio compared to its renowned predecessor.

The NF-A9’s impeller features Flow Acceleration Channels on the suction side. By accelerating airflow in critical outer regions of the fan blades, suction-side vortex shedding is reduced, leading to greater efficiency and lower turbulence-induced noise emissions.

Noctua’s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames are equipped with integrated vibration pads, a stepped inlet design, and inner surface microstructures, which further enhance performance-to-noise efficiency.

Anti-vibration pads made of extra-soft silicone reduce the transmission of even the smallest vibrations and are compatible with all standard screws, common mounting systems, and fan clips used with CPU coolers.

To ensure maximum manufacturing precision, minimal tolerances, and excellent long-term stability, the NF-A9 features a CNC-machined brass bearing shell. The NF-A9 is equipped with the second-generation version of Noctua’s proven SSO bearing system. In SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the fan axis for even better stabilisation, resulting in improved precision and durability.

Noctua fans are renowned for their flawless quality and exceptional longevity. Like all Noctua fans, the NF-A9 has an MTBF (mean time between failures) rating of over 150,000 hours and comes with a full 6-year manufacturer’s warranty.
