So, I have decided on what I want on my upgrade for my current rig, now im just deciding on fans. I need two 140mm static pressure fans and one 140mm Air Flow fan since I will be replacing the rear 140mm fan that came with my NZXT H440. I know noctua are the best fans but they are just so damn ugly, any other ideas?

Intel i5 4690k | NZXT Kraken x61 | MSI z97 Gaming 5 | MSI GTX 970 | EVGA Supernova G2 750 | G-Skill Ripjaws 16GB 2133mhz [2x8] | Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB HDD | Samsung 850 EVO Series 250GB SSD | NZXT H440 [black and Red]

Love the way that people use Corsair marketing terms to describe which type of fans they need.

the pinnacle achievement of advertising

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Noctua Industrial PPC ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

But seriously, I would go with Venturis or EK Vardars if not Noctua. The Vardars might be good if you use a radiator or are planning to. (btw, static pressure optimized fans work about as well as "air flow" fans)

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

I had no idea what other term to use :P Also is there a difference between the PWM variants of the Venturi fans?
