Noctua NF-A8 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin (80mm, Brown)

This is a noisiest fan I have ever had! The high pitch whine is unbearable!

Installed in a Synology DS1515+. I expected them to be quieter than the factory installed fans. However, from the start, I noticed little if any difference in noise level between these Noctua fans and the original fans. Now, after just a few months, these fans are make a buzzing sound. Going to reinstall the original fans.

I used this fan to replace the stock cooler in my Behringer iNuke 3000 amplifier. The stock cooler was extremely noisy, even at base load. I have the amp setup in a home theater app so the loudness of the stock fan couldnt be tolerated. I swapped the stock cooler for this Noctua. All I can say is WOW. The fan is completely inaudible at base line AND under load. Granted, I dont think it moves quite the CFM as the stock cooler, but Ive had no thermal overload issues so far. Id definitely recommend this for someone looking for a high quality cooler that is SILENT.

Super quiet fan. Greatly reduced the nolise produced by my vintage Heathkit Z-100 computer

Shhh! Good quiet fan. The amount of packaging is totally disgusting!

I am impressed with this product. Build quality is excellent, the accessories are useful, and instillation was a breeze. I can’t speak to unique measurements, but the fans moves a ton of air and is quieter than other rigs w/ same size fans. I’d highly recommend.

These fans are nice and quit, speed control is done with resistance wires that are included.

Works great, quiet, 3 speed options.

Excellent! Thank You!

Used on Synology and it makes a noticeable difference.
