One issue I've had with swapping fans for Noctuas is the airflow matching. The louder fans aren't louder just because they're lower quality (which they definitely are), but also because (almost always in my experience) they force more air through.

That unit from the article sounds very temperature sensitive. I'd be wary of throwing a precision unit like that out of spec and out of calibration.

FWIW I've noctua-swapped so many things including an oscilloscope.
