Noctua introduces chromax.black CPU coolers

Noctua introduces chromax.black CPU coolers

Noctua today introduced the long-awaited all-black versions of its award-winning NH-D15, NH-U12S and NH-L9i CPU coolers. Staying true to the successful formula of the original models, the new chromax.black versions with their black fans and black coated heatsinks combine the same signature quiet cooling performance with a sleek stealth look. 

The new NH-D15 chromax.black, NH-U12S chromax.black and NH-L9i chromax.black are identical to the regular models except for the colour: Featuring black coated heatsinks, black fans with black anti-vibration-pads, black fan clips or fan screws and black mounting parts, they are literally black from head to toe. Thanks to thoroughgoing optimisations of the coating material and process, the chromax.black models provide the same, renowned quiet cooling performance as their regular, non-coated counterparts.The new NH-D15 chromax.black, NH-U12S chromax.black and NH-L9i chromax.black are identical to the regular models except for the colour: Featuring black coated heatsinks, black fans with black anti-vibration-pads, black fan clips or fan screws and black mounting parts, they are literally black from head to toe. Thanks to thoroughgoing optimisations of the coating material and process, the chromax.black models provide the same, renowned quiet cooling performance as their regular, non-coated counterparts. The non-limited versions of the NH-D15 chromax.black and NH-U12S chromax.black will start selling via Amazon as soon as the Linus Tech Tips limited editions are sold out and via other sales partners at the end of October.

In addition to the three new chromax.black cooler models, Noctua also introduced the new NA-SAVP3 anti-vibration pads in black, blue, green, red, white and yellow. These pads are compatible with all NF-A15 line fans such as those pre-installed on the NH-D15 chromax.black, thereby enabling users to colour-customise their coolers for individual build cooler schemes. The NF-F12 fan on the NH-U12S chromax.black can be colour-customised using the existing NA-AVP1 pads. In addition, both models are compatible with the NA-HC1/NA-HC2 (NH-U12S) and NA-HC3/NA-HC4 (NH-D15) heatsink covers as well as chromax line NA-EC1 and NA-YC1 cables that allow for further visual customisation.

The manufacturer's suggested retail prices are as follows:

  • NH-D15 chromax.black.swap: EUR 99.90 / USD 99.90
  • NH-U12S chromax.black.swap: EUR 69.90 / USD 69.90
  • NH-L9i chromax.black.swap: EUR 49.90 / USD 49.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.black: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.blue: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.green: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.red: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.white: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90
  • NA-SAVP3 chromax.yellow: EUR 6.90 / USD 6.90

no more uggly (but good) air cooler.
This one is looking nice.
I would be interrested to know if the coating is reducing the cooling capacity.

Noctua is so boring. They need to jump on this RGB bandwagon.

I wish there were some nice beige and brown cases, suiting my personal needs with regards to feature set, to go along with the original look. :P

Seriously though, I would totally buy that!

They should come out a brown led variant first and talk about how it took them 9 years to get the perfect shade of brown.

Jokes aside I have a lot respect for noctua. The price/performance is probably on the extreme side but I love companies that put quality above everything else. It forces their competition to compete and pushes the market forward.
