Noctua NF-R8 redux-1800, High Performance Cooling Fan, 3-Pin, 1800 RPM (80mm, Grey)

The closest thing to ho hum beige Noctua makes, its a really good fan, priced for the masses. They are known for high quality over time, and you wont be disappointed at all with these. But maybe an un-intended foray into the lower price point put them right in the crosshairs of led enthusiasts looking to breathe some life into their rig with color and lighting, rather than higher quality components. Ahhh, this market economy!

Good quality. Work as expected. Quite.

Nice construction. It is not whisper quiet as I had hoped but not too bad!

Works great,i cant even hear the fan spinning i had the check to see if fan was on.I used the Noctua 80mm fan to replace a power amp fan that was way to loud.Im happy!

You can tell by how much air is being moved that these are Noctua fans. As Noctua fans go, they are slightly louder than normal, but for a server rig that is out of sight out of mind. These are just fine.

Very quiet!

I needed a quiet fan for a project I was working on but it needed to be able to move some air, this Noctua worked on both accounts.

Completely silent and moves a good amount of air. Was a great replacement for my stock Behringer amp fan.

I love these things. Noctua, without the ugly brown.

Aint complaining. IT is nice and quiet and for about a year or so now it has been performing outside in the dusty garage with no complaints.
