> 24 hourAs 70s/80s as they look with the sexy brown and beige color scheme, these puppies are incredibly high quality, incredibly silent, and move some air. Highly recommended. The rubber bits at the corner to help dampen any vibrations are a thoughtful touch.

> 24 hourEste pequeño ventilador de 8cm es perfecto para esos gabinetes que lo requieren, nunca me habia tocado usar uno siempre los de 12 o 14cm pero esta vez para dos proyecto que usan un chassis mas pequeño me toco buscar este modelo y genial que sea PWM. Como siempre Noctua y sin mas que acotar cumple lo prometido, calidad, bajo ruido y simple de instalar.

> 24 hourNoctua, I love you. You made a Sandy Bridge Xeon run like its on ice, even with the stock heat sink.

> 24 hourTheyre very much adaptable to different cases. Super quiet. The evidence I needed that you get what you pay for, and Noctua means truly high quality

> 24 hourExpensive but worth it. Used these to replace rosewill fans in a media server case that sounded like a vacuum. So much quieter.

> 24 hourLove these fans although they do not blow you away. They are silent and rarely spin up enough for to be heard. Great quality.

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.
