non-noctua, i have them at front

Your front fan is a noctua, so the rear cannot be from noctua? I dont understand that argument...

I recently bought a Noctua NF-S12A PWM chromax.black.swap, excellent performance and doesnt look bad:

If you don't want the Noctua's. Check out Corsair's ML fans. They are nearly as good as the Noctua fans, but cost less and look better. There are also RGB versions of the ML fans, if your into that.

IMO if you commit to Noctua with all your fans its not a bad look, but yea tan and brown...

Silent Wings 3

Noctua redux? cheaper and better looking, basically their last generation stuff and a neutral grey.  They dont have all the latest innovations but you pay 50% less for 5% less performance.

Noctua now makes Chromax fans.

Choose black fans  !

Or yes, Silent Wings 3 from be quiet! 

Great aesthetics on both, but Noctua is the god of air cooling. 

Now, fashionable air cooling !

I just got black/grey noctua fans myself, they look awesome! And I kinda hate the brown /beige ones they're selling... 

And they seem to be of excellent quality I have to say,  very silent,  powerful and run very smooth,  pretty much don't even notice them at 2000rpm. 

 

Be careful with bequiet,  I'm currently trying to get 2 of them to work but seem not be able to control them, they're 3 pin connectors so I think that's why,  still trying to figure this out though,  so my verdict isn't final yet,  just saying.

The direction tells you... the direction.
