Product Description
The ARCTIC P8 Max 80 mm High-Speed PWM Cooling Fan in Black is a compact, high-output cooling fan engineered for small form factor (SFF) PCs, Mini-ITX enclosures, high-density 2U/3U server chassis, and restricted heatsink environments. Built to deliver cooling performance within an 80 mm footprint, the P8 Max extends ARCTIC's renowned P-series lineup with an expanded rotational ceiling reaching up to 5000 RPM.
At the center of its performance is an aerodynamic closed-ring blade design optimized for high static pressure. Producing up to 5.30 mmH2O of focused static pressure and 40 CFM of airflow, the P8 Max pushes air through tightly packed heatsink fins, radiator meshes, dust filters, and cramped server chassis with ease. When running under idle or light computing loads, the fan's intelligent PWM controller enables a true 0 dB mode, bringing blade rotation to a complete stop whenever the PWM signal drops below 5% for silent operation.
Constructed with an advanced Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB), the P8 Max minimizes mechanical friction and internal vibration, ensuring quiet acoustic profiles at low speeds and sustained durability over long operating lifespans. It draws just 0.19A of current at peak output and features a startup voltage of 3.2V DC. Equipped with a 400 mm black cable and a standard 4-pin PWM header, the ARCTIC P8 Max delivers versatile installation and high-pressure cooling reliability backed by ARCTIC's 6-year warranty.
