Greater than one weekgood 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

Greater than one weekPremium. That basically sums it all up. From packaging to the quality of Noctuas products. You know what you are getting. A little on the higher priced side? Sure. But these fans (even at the 80mm size) are better then any fans I have ever purchased. From Antek to Corsair, I am now a believer in Noctua. 10/10 would buy again

> 3 dayUse it to cool my nvme ssd on the back side of the motherboard. Even at full speed it is still very quiet.

> 3 dayUsed this to replace the factory fan in an Icom IC-7300 (yellow to red, black to black) which was quite noisy, this fan is silent! Perfect!

Greater than one weekPurchased this fan to replace a noisy stock fan. I was very impressed by the results. The fan is completely inaudible over other case noises, and judging by my temperatures, is still moving a substantial amount of air over the components. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a Quiet fan with a capital Q.

> 3 dayThis fan is performing as expected; it is virtually silent. Lots of cheaper options out there, but you get what you pay. I have purchased several Noctua fans and cpu coolers, and am happy with all of them. No failures or other issue to date, and they are all whisper quiet.

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.
