Black fans ARE generic looking. I'm glad it's only for the industrial line and they've made the redux anything other than all black. That 2 tone grey do look really nice with not too gawdy colour. At least it gives noctua fans some personality and unique image over thousands of black fans out there on the market.

I don't care if they are generic, I personally like the normal noctua's colours anyway so, I'm not bothered about the new fans. But you can't complain and say how generic looking they are, if I had a penny for every time I saw somebody say "I would buy noctua if they were black" I'd be able to buy noctua itself. Besides they still have brown corners to they arnt completely black. I guess you just can't please some people.

I also prefer their normal trademark colour myself. I currently have four of them in my pc. All I'm trying to say is for a premium brand such as noctua, i think it would not be that wise to use all black colour on their consumer line fans as it'll be hard to differentiate them from all other black generic fans out there. The colour is what makes noctua really unique,apart from their performance. That two tone grey colour I think is a balanced trade off from not looking too generic but also being exclusively Noctua.

The grey ones look alright. But I still prefer Noctua's original colours :)

I agree, I like the fact that as soon as you see them in a pc you know that's a high end pc, but sooooo many people asked for black fans they were loosing money. You can't really blame them, this is going to bring noctua into alot more ofpeople's options.

Haha honestly,I don't understand how can people say like 'OMG,black fans..so sexxyyy' when you can't really quite appreciate the intricateness,sleekness and quality of noctua fan design when it looks like just any other generic fans. Most of the pc case internal is already black and so do most of the pc components. You can't barely see a black fan in it. I might get the Redux fans if it is really any cheaper than the current beige one here
