P8 Max

I chose this over the quieter version as it had a more similar airflow performance at full speed to the OEM CPU fan in my Dell Optiplex. Very glad I did, as it can keep temperatures below thermal throttling levels while being far, far quieter than the original fan. At idle or while doing basic tasks like browsing or office work, it’s all but silent - certainly quieter than a HDD. And during intensive work like encoding or gaming, it’s about 50% quieter. A great upgrade.

Bought for itx build pc. Tried a slim version but this is better, great gusts of air relatively quietly. Splendid.

Fast delivery, good quality fan, easy to install and good airflow. Keeps solid airflow to my gpu

Works well, had one though which was producing weird sound (returned). Noise is ok if you don't go more than 2500rpm. For antything over it you get server room experience. Saying that - it is nice to have extra power to go up to 5000 in case you need it.

Superb fan. So quiet you can barely hear it. Easy to fit and has a good length of power cable too, enabling it to fit in any area of your case. Also comes with the screws for fitment.

Exactly what I needed on my build

The box states the contents should be 1 80mm high performance PWM Fan and 4 screws ... There were *zero* screws. The fan is advertised as 0dB at < 5% PWM .... I couldn't verify this as the fan appears uncontrollable by the Lenovo BIOS on the Sharkbay motherboard (even on the acoustically optimised setting) so it spins at the max 5000rpm .... It certainly does the job cooling but the airflow sounds like every data centre I've been in .... If all were combined at the same time. I tried unsuccessfully to control it with the Speedfan utility too. Nice job Arctic ! Given the role of the fan though is to control the temps I can't deny it does that so I will give a generous three stars for effort !

Excellent airflow but on the noisy side, particularly for the first few hours.

Pression statique (le critère n°1 pour moi sur mon projet) ≈ 5,3 mmH₂O, donc très puissant. Je le mets à 60%. Il est très silencieux a cette vitesse. Si vous le mettez à 100% il fera du bruit (très supportable), mais on ne lui demande pas d'être silencieux mais puissant et il fait le job!

Did the job for me.

Ho installato nel mio pc la ventola ARCTIC P8 Max e devo dire che sono rimasto davvero colpito dalle sue prestazioni! Questa ventola da 80 mm è perfetta per chi cerca un equilibrio tra potenza e silenziosità. La possibilità di controllarla tramite PWM, con una gamma di giri che va da 500 a 5000, è fantastica. Una delle caratteristiche che ho apprezzato di più è la modalità 0dB: quando il sistema è a basse temperature, la ventola si spegne completamente, il che è un grande vantaggio per chi ama un ambiente di lavoro silenzioso. Quando il PC inizia a scaldare, la ventola si attiva e fornisce un flusso d'aria potente e efficace, nonostante le sue dimensioni compatte. Inoltre, la possibilità di programmare la ventola sia dal BIOS che tramite l'applicazione del produttore della scheda madre rende tutto molto semplice e personalizzabile. In sintesi, l'ARCTIC P8 Max è una scelta eccellente per chi cerca una ventola ad alte prestazioni che non comprometta il silenzio quando non è necessaria. La consiglio vivamente!

Ventilador de 80mm con excelente rendimiento y control de velocidad amplio, ideal para cajas de PC y servidores. Funciona de manera silenciosa en bajas revoluciones y ofrece una gran potencia de refrigeración cuando se necesita. La opción de modo 0dB es un plus para reducir el ruido cuando no se requiere ventilación activa. Construcción sólida y materiales de calidad. Muy recomendable para mejorar la refrigeración del equipo.

Used to replace my CPU cooling fan. It runs so slow with such little noise that I had to keep checking to make sure it was running. It speeds up when needed but it's still really quite and provides good airflow to keep everything within its proper heat range. Good price for a nice quality fan.
