Compact 80mm case fan for targeted airflow

The StarTech.com FAN8X25TX3L is a single 80mm case fan designed to add supplementary cooling inside a computer chassis. It spins at 2000 RPM to deliver 26.6 CFM of airflow while producing 27 dBA of noise. A ball bearing is used to increase reliability and extend operating life. The unit connects via a standard 3-pin power connector and measures 80 x 80 x 25mm in black.

Suits builds needing an 80mm replacement or upgrade

This fan fits cases and mounts that specifically require an 80mm by 25mm form factor. Users who need higher static pressure for dense radiators or heatsinks should consider alternative designs. Systems that rely on PWM speed control will not benefit from the fixed 3-pin connection. Buyers wanting silent operation below 20 dBA will find the acoustic output too high.

The 80mm mounting footprint decides fit

The physical dimensions of 80 x 80 x 25mm are the sole determinant of whether this fan can be installed in a given case or bracket. No adapter brackets or alternative mounting hardware are included in the package. Verify the exact mounting hole spacing and clearance before purchase. The included package content reference is 986040.

Questions about this item

Will the 80mm by 25mm frame fit my case's 80mm mounting holes?

Yes, the fan measures 80mm square and 25mm thick, matching the standard 80mm mounting pattern used by most PC cases.

How do I connect the 3-pin power connector without a fan controller?

Plug the 3-pin connector directly into a motherboard 3-pin or 4-pin fan header; alignment tabs prevent incorrect insertion, but ensure the clip seats fully.

When should I replace the ball-bearing fan?

Ball bearings typically run for years; replace the fan if noise rises above the rated 27 dBA or airflow drops below 26.6 CFM.
