Quiet box fan 92x14mm

Pictures may differ from actual products

Equipped with an AAO frame and Noctua's state-of-the-art aerodynamic advances, the NF-A9x14 is a highly optimised, high-quality, quiet 92x14mm fan. Its low profile (only 14mm) makes the NF-A9x14 the ideal choice for demanding users.

Quiet box fan 92x14mm

Overview
Exceptionally quiet!

Equipped with an AAO frame and benefiting from Noctua's advanced aerodynamic features such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A9x14 is a highly optimised, high quality, quiet 92x14mm fan. Thanks to its low profile(only 14mm), the NF-A9x14 is the ideal companion for smaller CPU fans.

Noctua 's exclusive PWM circuitry provides full automatic speed control; the renowned SSO2 bearings ensure smooth operation and excellent service life. Complete with a modular cabling system, LNA low speed adapter and a 6 year manufacturer's warranty, the NF-A9x14 is the ideal choice for demanding users.

Thin 14mm design
With a thickness of only 14mm, the NF-A9x14 becomes the preferred choice for situations that do not allow for the installation of a standard fan(HTPC or servers).
Flow Channels
The impeller of the NF-A9x14 is equipped with flow ducts on the fan face. The flow acceleration generated at the tips of the blades creates a more massive, less dispersed suction, thus increasing efficiency and reducing noise disturbance from vortexes.
AAO Frame
Noctua's AAO(Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames are equipped with anti-vibration mounts and benefit from exclusive optimisations to push the limits of performance and silence.
Stepped Inlet Design
Noctua's Stepped Inlet design adds turbulence to the inlet flow, allowing a gradual transition from laminar to turbulent flow. This reduces noise emissions, generates a more massive flow and increases suction power.
Inner Surface Microstructures
As the blade tips move in a boundary layer influenced by the presence of an Inner Surface Microstructure, the flow separation that takes place at the suction level becomes almost non-existent.
Integrated anti-vibration dampers
The integrated anti-vibration mounts, made of extra soft silicone, limit the transmission of vibrations while ensuring perfect compatibility with standard fastening systems.
SSO2 Bearing
This is the latest generation of the SSO2 bearing, which is even more optimised. The SSO2 is equipped with a rear magnet closer to the axis for greater precision, durability and stability.
Exclusive PWM circuit with SCD
Allowing full automatic PWM speed control, favouring less abrupt torque pulses, the SCD eliminates switching noise, allowing the fan to be quieter at low speeds.
Low noise adapter
Supplied with an L.N.A. adapter that allows the maximum speed to be reduced from 2200 to 1700rpm. It can be used to stabilise the fan speed at 1700rpm or to limit the speed when using PWM control.
Many wiring options
While the main fan power cable is short(20cm), a 30cm cable is provided to solve any distance problems. Both cables are fully sheathed.
6-year manufacturer's warranty
Noctua fans have a proven track record for both quality and durability. As with all Noctua models, the NF-A9x14 has an MTBF of more than 150,000 hours of testing and comes with a full 6-year manufacturer's warranty.

    NOCTUA NF-A9X14

    At last a 92x92x14mm fan that's slim, efficient and quiet.
    I lost around 4°C in processor temperature (81°C instead of 85°C in intensive testing) by attaching it to the side panel of my PC case (Chieftec HO-12B-OP case / AMD Ryzen 5700G Cezanne processor / ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS WI-FI II motherboard / Noctua NH-U9S radiator-fan / Noctua NF-A9 PWM fan at the back of the case).

    more noise

    bought to replace old noctua for processor, except that i had trouble engaging them because there is no space like the original ones, by deforming the metal part of verntirad, i was able to manage.
    and...whoa much less noise, better cooling, I have 5°C less than before while they run almost 2x less.

    really efficient this purchase !

    Perfect

    Very quiet in normal use. Even at high speed the noise is very reasonable.
    And the performance is very good.
