15-11-2024I used this fan to replace the stock fan in my Icom IC-7300, which was quite loud during transmit. The Noctura fan is essentially silent. I cant hear it at all. If youre looking for a quiet fan, look no more, this is the one.

> 3 dayI had a weird case that I needed to get these for to replace some noisy stock fans, the extra kit you get with this fan is amazing. You get a y splitter, an extension cable, and a low voltage (silent mode) adapter. And on top of that it is a Noctua fan and the hype surrounding these fans is real.

> 3 dayI bought two of these to replace the cheap fans in my rackmount case. Not only are these Noctua fans well engineered and designed they are dead quiet. I used the rubber mounting grommets that are shipped as an install option in lieu of the metal screws. This really helps reduce any vibration noise on the case. Noctua products are simply hard to beat.

> 3 dayThis thing is great, moves air well, and is far quieter than previous cooling fans. I cant say it is as quiet as the previous reviews made it sound, but my girlfriend is much happier with the noise from my CPU case now -- it used to drive her bonkers! :-)

> 3 dayThis fan is quiet, and the specifications are honest. Personally, I dont care for the colors. But from the packaging down to the sheathing on the wires, you can tell this is a high quality product.

> 3 daygood little fan, for the amount of air it pushes I never would have guessed it was only 80mm. Its a really good fan that sits on the outside of my case and is near silent. In fact at 80% power I hear my quiet GPU fans over this fan. Very impressed. I have this installed in mini iTX setup, so noise is very apparent and this fan does not make any

> 3 dayWorth every penny, if you want a quiet PC Noctua is the only way to go
The NF-A8 is a highly optimised, premium quality quiet 80mm fan. Featuring Noctua’s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame as well as sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A8 further improves the renowned quiet cooling performance of the award-winning NF-R8. The PWM version sports Noctua’s custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 2200 to 1750rpm. Its superb running smoothness, reference-class SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for the highest demands.
AAO frame
Noctua"s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua"s proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan"s performance/noise efficiency.

|---|---|---|---|
Flow Acceleration ChannelsThe NF-A8 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-A8 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua"s renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. |
Integrated anti-vibration padsIntegrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems. |
Scope of delivery
|
Inner Surface Microstructures
With the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency.
