The Noctua NHL9i is designed for CPUs up to a max of ~65watts. So you'll be at the top end of it's cooling capacity but should be OK. Overall The case is awesome as a NAS case. With the fans set at optimal, the drives are at ~35 degrees and with the Fans set at full, the drives are around ~28-30 degrees. Loaded with (4) 4 TB 7200 RPM HGST NAS drives, (2) WD80EZZX and (2) WD80EZFX drives.
Have been copying data to the system and running StableBit Scanner non stop for the past 5 days and the temperature has not changed.
If it had fit on my shelf it would have been perfect
