So they call it Chromax, and they're is no chrome? False advertisement. **insert misplaced hate here**

 

So what, 5 more years to RBG?

RGB? Do you want to pay $60 for a fan?

Looks like someone salty about not getting LTT edition fans.

The LED on the geforce cards are white, imo id take it apart and sand the green off.

1.5 years later and I have cougar vortex fans on the bottom and all the trim on the 1070 is painted orange. Ignoring the pen (inside joke with my friends) I like the contrast the green gives, it's not as noticeable in person. Pardon the crappy phone pic i just took.

Noctua Black fans + Phanteks Halos RGB fan frames.

 

That's what I'm doing with my system and it looks goooood. Expensive, but worth it to know I have the best fans on the market, and also have them look noice.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

Finally! Took them a freaking while. Question is: will these be as effective and quiet as their normal fans? Or will they nerf them just to make a difference between their "good" fans and their "astheticly good looking" fans?

 

But for this price I hope they will be just as good as their normal fans.

Their 140 industrial fans are on the top of the market. Their 120s have slipped however and are only very good. Sometime in the 2nd half of 2018 their new line of fans are coming out which should put them back on the top of the market across their range.

"Chromax" logo and branding looks so wack...looks like the branding for a printing company

They should have just stuck with emphasis on Noctua name and branding - or just no branding
