Does this come in black?

Hi! The fan comes in standard Noctua colors, light and dark brown.

Is this any good for gaming with a i5 6400 non overclocked?

Shall I goggle that for you? https://ark.intel.com/products/88185/Intel-Core-i5-6400-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_30-GHz http://noctua.at/en/products/cpu-cooler-retail Your CPU has a TDP of 65W. The NH-U9S has a TDP of 95W for socket 1151. An i5 should be enough for gaming, I have an i5 4670K but gaming performance will be mostly down to GPU performance (I have 2 x GTX760 SLI which plays most games at 1080p high detail) If you add a second fan you should be able to use the mainboard overclocking quite happily (using mainboard software utilities)

My stock intel fan is really noisy are these quite ?

Whisper quiet, even with just a 92mm fan. 2 of my machines are cooled with these: one based around an i7-3770 & one (with a second fan) around an i7-4790K, both are in mATX cases & neither are audible above the desk. If you're using the push-pin fitted low-profile Intel cooler with the plastic, clip-on fan, you'll really see a difference.
