It actually is a nice looking build and I’d consider something like this for my next build for quiet and good performance, the problem it’s Noctua’s colour choice is when it’s the only part of your system that looks like that, but if you base your whole build around it, it’s very good

The color scheme of this build separates it from the rest of the PC in the entire world. It made the PC look rare and glamourous, not the typical cool gamer builds that might be different parts but ends up looking the same as the others.

I started being a Noctua fanboy when in my thermodynamics class, the teacher asked us to do thermal simulations of whatever we wanted. We picked CPU cooling, and the fact that noctua publishes lots of schematics, numbers, and curves was amazing for our project. Since then, I bought a NH-U14s, tons of NF-P12s, replaced my PSU fan for the legendary NF-A12x25 (double reliabilitycombo, Seasonic psu + Noctua fan), and struggled to find the noctua 3070 during the GPU shortage, but managed to find one at a decent price (about 600€). I also bought tons of their smol fans for my CNC, my 3D printer, and everything that has a fan. My work laptop on the other side of the room is about 10x noisier than my PC during CAD, or running games, simulations, and compilations. The tan/brown look is FAR from being ugly in my opinion, and is just a staple in performance and reliability.

I became a massive fan of Noctua after winning a gift card to them, and changing from a small aio to their air cooler & all case fans. I love how quiet the system is now, even when streaming Starfield.

@@aarondavis8943 I think it's more than fecal associations, but I agree with you on its unfairly treatment -and I'm not a really big fan of brown myself! My speculation is the combination with other colours matters - most likely we don't even notice it with a good combination, otherwise it sticks out, and then we go "oh, it's poop!" (but much less "Oh, it's chocolate!", so you definitely have a point!) Brown is also the colour of ground and tree trunks, but when I see the colour scheme of these Noctua fans for example, my mind doesn't go there. Neither does it go there when looking at the colours of the outside walls of the building where my apartment is - yellowish beige and brown, how I wish my mind would go to ice cream flavours, instead of bodily fluids! But even as not a great fan of brown, I still dreamt of painting the living room in shades of darker green and brown, to evoke the sense of a forest -I mean, as much as a wall paint job could evoke. So I'm personally leaning towards the combinations that matter in brown's case. Though I have to mention that my conclusions are affected by my dislike of beige. Other commentators mentioned how they like Noctua's colour scheme, and my mother loves beige on walls, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

ugly? thats one of the nicest looking builds I've seen from a purely aesthetic POV.. nice build bro!

Imma be honest, that PC looks tasty, like really good to eat probably because of the kinda chocolate and icecream colouring

It actually is beautiful... in a Noctua "hubris brown" sort of way... I think if you had also painted the black edge around the glass side panel in the aforementioned Noctua "hubris brown", it really would have set if off better - a little more balanced color look...

I unironically love the noctua colour scheme, I personally opted for a NH u12s instead of a NZXT Kraken, because I loved the unusual nature of it + the reliability. It looks great next to my Titan XP 😂😂 An objectively beautiful GPU design paired with a controversial colour scheme.

Noctua is the only PC brand I love. Yes, they just make expensive fans, but "they just make expensive fans, that are the best fans" I appreciated their very small deviation from their brand, in making"excellent thermal paste".. but that's really quite "on brand" that they include it with your expensive fan. Even their brown and beige colour scheme is genius. You can spot somebody who cares about fans, from across a room.

Noctua thermal paste is specifically designed for Noctua coolers. Depending on how the contact plate is machined will change what the best thermal paste is for it, since thermal paste is built to fill microscopic gaps. So Noctua thermal paste isn’t exactly the best thermal paste on the market, its the best for Noctua coolers after factoring in things like cost, ease of production and most importantly, ease of application, because if the user fucks up applying the paste it doesn’t matter how efficient it is at transferring heat. I love Noctua too and I have this problem where I can’t stop myself from constantly wishing Noctua would replace all my fans in my life. Exhaust fans for my bathroom and kitchen annoy me so much. They are insanely loud and they die fairly frequently, considering Noctuas are designed to last at least 10 years. So many bathroom fans develop a terrible screech and stops working needing a replacement. Also, I desperately wish Noctua would make an Air purifier. Its absurd how expensive these air purifiers are when they are essentially just a fan strapped to a hepa filter in a plastic case. I just want Noctua to take a cheap and common hepa filter and slap one of their fans on it and call it a day. Not only are most air purifiers loud and high pitched, but they all tend to have insane powerdraw. Damn near every air purifier uses like 50watts of electricity, and its just a bloody fan. Only small desk purifiers that are basically using off the shelf generic computer fans will have a low usage of like 15watts. A noctua fan uses like 2watts. The only other purifier I’ve found to have anything close to a modern fan is the somewhat new Levoit 300s, which seems to do good on airflow and sound at less than 30watts. Even their older non smart version the 300, apparently uses a worse motor that does 50watts, even though both models look identical and have the same fan blade design. I feel like Noctua could easily make an air purifier for $100 that outperforms every air purifier in existence just by putting their fan in a plastic housing with a hepa filter. The unfortunate thing about Noctua is that if they ever decided to design an air purifier, they would redesign the fan and everything and take about 10 years to finally put it into production. Their desk fan has been in the works for like 6 years, and thats such a simple use case.

The main problem with the aesthetics of the Noctua fans is because usually you have these all white/black builds with RGB lighting, and then an out of place brown fan. When it's part of one cohesive look, I actually like the look of it quite a bit.

The PC actually looks really good surprisingly.. That said, I really wished more graphics cards used standard size fans, even if they have to use 92 or 80mm ones.

Besides the high performance and silent operation, the reliability on noctua fans is the biggest factor. I've never had a fan even remotely rattle or show any signs of wear, let alone actually fail. They pay for themselves if you use them on multiple builds.

Yea...

Replacing fans in normal household things is just so good. Even our milk cooler for the coffee machine was terribly loud but after replacing that 90mm sunon fan with a noctua fan and a LNA its not audible anymore. Just recently replaced a Eaton UPS Eclipse pro fan with a Noctua fan. Luckily they even sell a 24 to 12V Linear step down converters so you dont even lose the fan control. Although never do such a thing if you dont know what you are doing. Even if you unplugged a device it can still hold a charge and if you touch that you will have a bad day.

I want to see case manufacturers colab with noctua now. The mobo, RAM and SSD were a little excesive, but a case, cooler and GPU with Noctua fans? all in.

These type of collaborations really need to happen more, especially regarding the fact that the coming generations will only ever draw more power. If companies like Noctua, be quiet and arctic do it as well, there could be much more well cooled competition on the market. I would love to see that.

Noctua x Your Casemaker here collabs

Honestly, it looks a lot like the interior of my dad's 1998 jag xj8. It has the smooth light tan of a fine Italian leather that exudes an eccentric yet affluent base, mixed beautifully with a mature walnut trim which conveys a sense of rigidity and sensibility. The combination's end result displays that deep down you love to party, and you have tons of money, and yet, outwardly, you show that you know exactly where you put your money, and while you enjoy playing it safe, you aren't against having a little fun. All in all, it isn't ugly, in fact it's perfection. This beautiful color scheme, mated with the exquisite lines of the case, and the knowledge that inside is a barely tamed beast capable of grinding cyberpunk 2077 at max fps and ultra hi def ray tracing, come out as a pc that is just like the jag. Sane and sensible, yet roaring with fury.

With airflow like that you can throw a HEPA filter on the front panel and your PC doubles as an air purifier😂

I've always loved Noctua's color scheme. They pair nicely with Sennheiser HD598 headphones too.
