Which Noctua model for cooler?

[ilikecomputersalot]

Hi guys! Which noctua 92mm PWM model works best for a CPU cooler? Looking for really quiet which is why I chose Noctua, but I read that they have different fan types for different air flows. I will be *pushing* air through the cooler. Feel free to suggest other fans (in the £10-15 range) as long as they are known for being super quiet too. Thanks!

 

edit: I should also mention this is going on a Cooler Master Hyper TX3i https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01CXIMK9A/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&psc=1

You don't really have options. Its either redux or A92. Both are airflow fans with one having dark grey frame and other normal brown color.

ah ok. do you know if there any of the noctua coolers work like the TX3i where you can swap out for the intel stock cooler without installing a  bracket?

No, there aren't. That being said, the fan can be replaced by any standard 92mm case fan.

If you don't have the cooler yet, you can get the PR Slim instead which is very quiet and uses the stock Intel plastic pins: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/hyQRsY/be-quiet-pure-rock-slim-351-cfm-cpu-cooler-bk008

They would still have A92 fans. If you want Noctua, pick Noctua.
