Does anybody know of any good fans that can compete with Noctua NF-F12s that can be disassembled? As in remove the blade assembly from the motor.

I want to be able to dye them, so I get good color but still keep the great performance.

Gelid wings have removable fans but i think there the only ones.

Mostly performance and noise level. Price isn't too much of an issue when I'm going all out.

They don't necessarily have to be branded as "removable" as long as you can get them off. I have no qualms with a fair share of modification

Yate loons perform similarly to Noctuas, though aren't nearly as durable, and are pretty easy to disassemble.
