    Nice quiet fan. Does not move much air.

    Very low noise fans. The quiet adapter it comes with is really good. I have 5 nested 4 pin PWM fans plugged into the little low noise adapter cable. now all fans are running at 600~ rpm (what i needed). Now I can sleep at night without turning off my server. (This could have been done through BIOS or a fan controller. But, it is still very neat.)

    Great fan that came with a lot of extras (stabilizers, rubber feet to decrease noise, and multiple options for connecting it). Only issue is that it is about 2mm bigger between the holes than it says. This probably is not an issue for most (as this fits a standard configuration in a computer) but it did not work for my purposes (replacing a noisy fan in my aquarium hood). 4 Stars because of the misfit, and because I had to order this twice (the first time it never showed up, but amazon refunded my money so it was all good).

    Ill keep it short: my computers stock fan was so loud, it was making the whole pc tower vibrate and caused a massive amount of noise. I can still remember the vibrations from my legs and arms making contact with the desk. I finally got tired of it and ordered this fan. It took about a minute to install and turn it on and that was that. No more noise. Its like its not even on. If I hadnt seen the blades spinning, Id think I got a dud. It also keeps the PCs temperatures far lower than the stock fan. All I can say is that Ill never go back to regular fans. Its that good.

    Theres not much to be said here. Its a Noctua fan and you buy it because its a Noctua fan.

    Work quiet and good amount of air, a bit expensive than another but worth it.

    Designed in Austria, made in China. The best fan for PC I ever used. So quiet, you hardly notice it is there working diligently.

    Superior fan. Dead quiet. Everything is top notch. Cables are generous. adapters included.

NF-A8 PWM headerNF-A8 PWM header

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 Channels

The 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 bearing

The 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 pads

Integrated 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

  • Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A)
  • NA-YC1 4-pin PWM y-cable
  • NA-EC1 30cm extension cable
  • 4x NA-AV1 anti-vibration mounts
  • Fan screws

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.
