ExplainingComputers | Quieter PC #1: Noctua NH-U9S Cooler @ExplainingComputers | Uploaded April 2022 | Updated October 2024, 6 days ago.
Noctua NH-U9S CPU cooler fitted in the first part of a project to make a desktop PC less noisy. The concluding part of this series is here: youtube.com/watch?v=Zwqm3c0-Dbw

A Noctua NH-U9S can be purchased on Amazon.com here: amzn.to/36IKmFj and Amazon.co.uk here: amzn.to/3uyTe8y Note that these are affiliate links, and that as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases when you click on them.

Note also that the above links are to the version of the cooler in its standard colours, not in chromax black. Oh, and do make sure to measure your PC to make sure a 125mm high cooler will fit!
