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 and more than 150,000 hours MTTF, 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.
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.
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.
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.
Flow Acceleration Channels
The fan’s 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.
Optional coloured cables
Noctua’s 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.
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.

I didn't always pay -that- much attention to what fans I used. Most of the time, I'd rescue them out of retired builds and cases, and recycle them into new systems as a sort of "tribute" to the predecessor. When I set out to build my Skyreach PC, which was my console-killer wet dream, I knew each part going in needed to be the best possible in it's class. I initially bought the NH-L9i in Chromax Black and was so impressed by it, I decided to go full Noctua in this system. I replaced the GPU fans (noisy, kinda whiny and frankly too tall to fit) with these fans, and it's been great.I was actually surprised at how well they performed at low-speeds in tasks where noise was a concern. That said, they can get LOUD. ASUS Fan Xpert allows you to crank all connected fans to max speed and this little box becomes a jet engine. Add to that the vortexing issue with this case and things became unbearable. However, flipping the fans worked splendidly (from push to pull) and the avg temp jumped only 5c. With a mild undervolt and some fine-tuning, I had a quiet, high pressure fan that did a decent enough job repelling dust and keeping components cool.In comparison to other fans I have used over the years, I find the pitch and tone of the fan sound to be more pleasant to the ear. You'll find that most fans don't have -that- much different fanning abilities from their immediate competition, but you will HEAR the difference. I do prefer these greatly.The added bonus? No more puke brown, although I do have a slight fondness for that hilariously-outdated color scheme. I imagine the brand recognition factor is also there. And in the RGB era, seeing a brand stand up against competition without the pretty lights to mask any quality defects is refreshing and inspiring.If I had to gripe about one thing it'd be the price. You pay a -little- more than you would from competitors but honestly, you get something truly special with this company. Quality European engineering at it's best.All in all, these are incredibly well-engineered fans with the pedigree to boot. I will be using Noctuas in future situations that require low-noise, high static pressure fans. These are great. And they're kinda blingy, in their own cool way. Definitely a quiet flex.

Got these to replace some fans that came with my NAS enclosure. After installing some adapters on the backplane, the provided fans were just slightly too big and the back panel wouldn't fit without some uncomfortable pressure.Got these and replaced the factory fans. I love that the power connector is so short! I already had cables running to the area and didn't need to zip tie up any slack.Airflow is the same, but these are easily half the thickness. System is super quiet. Love the black color of these. I know noctua is good quality, though the beige and brown they usually do is pretty awful for my tastes. The colored anti-vibration pads are fine. I just used the black ones because I'm basic.

Great replacement for any 92mm fan. Cooled the thermalright axp90-x47 like a charm. Didn’t have the same max speed as oem fan on cooler, but the noise profile of the noctua is just more pleasant, it’s hard to describe it but it just sounds better and cools the same if not better. It won’t ever happen, but there’s so many other brands that are catching up to noctua’s build quality and performance, so I hope the competition can bring some of these prices down a bit. But I get it, you get what you pay for and the warranty and pedigree of noctua is top notch. Minor gripe, I didn’t like how there’s adhesive colored rubber pads that I had to install, I get the customization aspect, but if one build I want it black the next build I want red, if I ever want to revert back to black pads, I can’t because it’s not a reusable pad.

I have a Radeon R9 Nano, and I accidentally cracked the cheaply-made fan the other day when I was swapping out some SATA cables. I tried to fix it with duct tape, but it was just too unstable at higher RPMs. Made the loudest racket as it wobbled and touched part of the heatsink cover! So I looked around and found this Noctua case fan. I read all the specs to make sure it voltage, amps, and RPMs would all be fine and have a high chance of working. Then I snipped the connector off an old graphics card, soldered it to the extension cable that came with this new fan, and successfully got power, fan speed, etc. all working fine. I ran a few benchmarks and didn't see any alarming temps, and the card was not even running the fan at 1500RPMs. I've been playing Warzone DMZ and some other versions a lot without any issue. The RPMs would get up to 1500 or so, and temp less than 75c. Interestingly, the fan sensor would report as using less than half RPMs, which would put the more accurate upper max 3000RPMs, not 2500RPMs, as stated on this product page. Tonight was interesting though. I played BF4 on Ultra quality, and the temps would have gone higher had the fan not ramp to over 3000RPMs! You can see on my TechPowerUp GPU-Z screep cap the section that I boxed in blue which shows 100% fan speed and RPMs @ 3000 or so. GPU temp remained less than 78c. I am very pleased with the results of this hackjob! This fan is amazing!UPDATE: Added another screenshot showing temp and RPMs while playing BF4.

These sleak and quiet fans came with an included extension, that's sheathed and looks nice

Actually one of my favorite fans of Noctua. Just the right size to fit almost anywhere, yet still provide more than adequate amount of airflow.Good job guys!

Good quality, very quiet. Comes with damping rubbers in a variety of colours.

I bought this is because Dell computers will not any how accept any fans. The BIOS will give you an error message on boot up. I think all you Dell computer users know what I mean. So at max 2500 rpm, Dell computers are fooled into thinking it's their approved fans. Hope this gives you a thinker and hope for Dell computer users.
