Did the original fan have a three pin connector or a four-pin connector?
Try plugging the original fan back in.
Does it work without the error message, as expected?
If it does, that means the Noctua NF-A9x14 is faulty or plugged in incorrectly.
If the header on the motherboard is for a three-pin fan and the new four-pin fan plugged in correctly the fan will run a t full speed all of the time.
Take a read of the article at the link below.

OK.
So the Noctua fan was faulty, as I suggested in my response that might be the case.
