The ARCTIC P8 is an 80 mm case fan for desktop PC builders who need to add cooling to a compact case or replace a compatible fan. Its fixed-speed design also suits installations where a straightforward three-pin fan connection is preferred.

A focused airstream and 1.90 mm/H₂O static pressure help the P8 move air when it encounters resistance, making it suitable for heatsinks, radiators and partly covered case vents. It can be installed to draw cool air into the case or push warm air out. The fluid dynamic bearing and motor design are intended to reduce friction, operating noise and vibration.

Key features

• 80 mm frame for compatible fan mounts
• Fixed 3000 rpm operation for consistent airflow
• 23.4 cfm airflow for moving air through a system
• 1.90 mm/H₂O static pressure for airflow against resistance
• Fluid dynamic bearing designed to reduce friction and bearing noise
• Install as an intake or exhaust fan to suit the case airflow layout
• Three-pin connector provides a tachometer signal

Compatibility

Check that your case, heatsink or radiator has an 80 mm fan mount and that the motherboard or fan controller has a compatible three-pin header. This is a fixed-speed fan, so it does not provide PWM speed control. Good to know: the box contains one fan and four mounting screws; check your system's connector and mounting requirements before ordering.

In the box

• ARCTIC P8
• Mounting screws x 4

Specifications

For a compact system that needs a simple 80 mm airflow upgrade, the P8 combines a focused airflow profile with flexible intake or exhaust installation and a fluid dynamic bearing.
