Arctic P8 Max High-Performance 80mm PWM Fan Review
Peter Donnell / 1 year ago
They say good things come in small packages, right? Well, let’s hope that’s true, as this is by far one of the smallest parcels I’ve ever received for a review sample! I have the Arctic P8 Max, and 80mm PWM fan which promises some seriously impressive specifications for such a small fan. Arctic has a rock-solid reputation for high-performance cooling products and high build quality too, so I have pretty high expectations for this fan, even if it is pretty small.
Arctic P8 Max
The P8 Max is a powerful fan with 500 to 5000 rpm. The fan delivers a static pressure of 5.3mm H2O and generates an airflow of up to 40 CFM. It offers precise control of the fan speed via pulse width modulation (PWM) and is extremely efficient at 0.19 A. The P8 Max is ideal for 2U server racks, which often require a high airflow to effectively dissipate heat. In addition, it has a 0 dB mode for silent operation in IDLE.
