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

Cheap fan, but for some odd reason this little fan decrease the noise level in my case. Highly recommended.

Yes it is quiet, but it barely moves any air at all.

Needed a new fan for my 80mm modded OG Xbox. The cheapo 2500RPM Rosewill LED fan I used to begin with is very loud, and is molex only so cant utilize the Xboxs auto fan control.

Good quality fans, they work well and the install is a snap. My old but very reliable Synology DS 411+ NAS drives fans started to sound a little noisy. I ordered two of these fans and they were for the most part drop in. Harness plugs fit directly into the mother board no problem. The only watch out is they are a little deeper. The extra thickness fits fine if you do not install the metal fan cage. Ive been using them a few weeks and everything is fine temperature wise. The other watch out is since these fans are not Synology exact replacements, you will get a beep code saying fans stop and start again. They never really stop though. You will have to disable the beep with a fan error in the software which is pretty easy.

I am using this as an intake fan on an old SFF desktop. This fan moves a serious amount of air! I had expected it to be silent as I understand that many Noctua products are. This fan is not silent, but it is easily one of the quietest computer fans I have ever heard. For the amount of air it brings into the system, I am not going to complain about a little noise.

Have a older pc this helped to take the heat out.

I used this fan to help cool a power supply.

I give it a 5 star because I is a Noctua but I did not receive the redux version but the older beige/pink version.

workin good quiet

I’m sure the fan works fine but it’s not 3 pin. What was delivered to me (twice) was a 4-pin fan. I sent the 1st one back and received the same 4-pin as a replacement. The sticker on the box says 3-pin but the box itself says 4-pin and the actual fan inside is 4-pin. Someone must have put the wrong sticker on the box.
