I like the changeable rings on the Corsair fans are they good or noctua is my only option?

noctua fans are much quieter than corsair

That's what I'm saying they should include the better looking fans with the coolers itself!

I love the Nh-d15 for its silence and cool operation even under full overclocked load but the fans look like.. Yuckkkk!!!!

Are there any fans with same performance but look better?

 

If you don't own it yet, you could just get a Dark Rock Pro 3 instead and call it a day.

 

It's quieter than the NH-D15 and runs only a few degrees hotter. 

 

Also something to note: The NF-A15 fans the NH-D15 comes with were made with that cooler in made.

They use 120mm mounting holes so slapping on NF-A14 IPPC's (140mm mounting holes) will cost a boat load of cash and they'll keep the included fan clips hella stretched out, to the point that they might break.

Bert & Ernie before squirting spermie.
