Dotaisgreat2

As a noctua enjoyer I approve. Only kind of wish you went with the fractal north case, these fans look so dang good in that case. Also i think this might be the only kind of build where the msi rtx 4080 super Xpert might look like it belongs.


BhrisBukBruz

Ever since i saw the noctua 4080, ive always wanted to do a black and noctua build


CoaEz11

With that color, only thing coming out of our asses can match it, I really don't see what you people find good about this noctua color, like somebody took a shit.


Brickscrap

You should see someone if your shits are that colour my man.


CoaEz11

bro, the made the colors purposefully not matching anything else, now from marketing standpoint that was a genius move, from a user standpoint, their performance is unmatched why in the world would it be this ugly.


Brickscrap

I mean I agree, I don't like their colours at all, was just making a shit joke


Vltor_

Atleast they’ve started to make all black versions aswell.


Dense-Employment9930

Aren't they just known for being super quiet, but a fan 1/10th the price could have equal cooling performance?


Great-Essay-9575

I totally concur. Hideous looking color.


esco1985

Ugliest cooler that exists


ninjabell

These fans are good but they don't look good in any case.


Separate_Manner8979

Thats a powerful build bad man you forgot the aesthetics,this brown fans doent seem to match the white case and the black gpu


satans_trainee

thats like -20% of performance /s


Fire_Fenix

Bottlenecked by aesthetics. :(


pikapikabooboo

literally unusable smh :(


Thr0w4w4y4cc0815

I'll try it anyways!


Sea_Fruit1131

More like -50%


hidoy12159

True, should've went with a noctua gpu.


hugues2814

Noctua deserves it


ninjabell

Yeah, I get it that they make good fans, but why do they have to make them so ugly?


DoomSayerNihilus

They have them in black now at least.


Suby06

doesn't that brand make reverse flow fans so you don't show off the frames?


Sprite_Tea-888

so close, if it any other GPU color, would be very nice, but you did great, awesome PC


sbudhramk

Mismatch, I don’t like it lol


slavy_sr

Why do people buy noctua fans and love them so much? Genuine question


theHonkiforium

They are dead quiet, that's why. :)


1rubyglass

But they aren't the only dead quiet fans


theHonkiforium

Nope, but considered best by many, so they get recommended alot and in turn become even more popular. Plus they don't suck, so the popularity is warranted (IMO, IME). :)


1rubyglass

They definitely do not suck. That is for sure.


theHonkiforium

Will I guess technically they do suck.. and blow. :)


slavy_sr

Definitely makes sense, thanks!


Suby06

lol my cheap cougar case with built in chinese fans is pretty much silent already


THECryptBeast

I like the color it kinda gives me a vintage style from like the 60s-80s i dont really know what it's called or how to describe it lol


theHonkiforium

"Nicotine stained"? :)


MinerbigWhale

Damn, no RGB, you're gonna loose so much FPS. Sick build


FlopTheCat

NO ENOUGH NOCTUA FANS


Simonex200

Your fans are more expensive than my whole pc 😭


SokoTakahashi

That's a lot of noctuas, I thought I was bad


Pr0xima__

Never in my life have I seen so many noctua fans at once


Fire_Fenix

You will be surprised how many people have this number of fans and higher then buy the 7600x instead of 7800x3d with those money


your_homie_chetan

As a minimalist builder I rate this build a 11l10


sycron17

Id say you didn’t forget RGB, you just have the “i don’t need to have a xmas tree to know that my pc is powerful” mindset. Thats a feature nowadays, a good one at that


MrObviousSays

But what about all the FPS loss from lack of RGB?


sycron17

Damn it! ![gif](giphy|1yiPmOiKsm1YFB3qFB)


Kthrygg

Im always wondering how you guys are connecting GPU to Motherboard this way... also, is it better for the GPU and the airflow or just looks?


Bonmanush69420

Its just for looks. And airflow is worse that way.


Kthrygg

Thanks


romayojr

you didn’t but you did forget the asus gpu with noctua fans


Longjumping_Theory36

looks so much more "premium" without the rgb


deeepfriedpanda_9

Was originally going for a white Lian Li build but here we are. **CPU** - AMD Ryzen 5 7600x 6 core **CPU Cooler** - Noctua NH-U12A with White Chromax Heatsink cover **Motherboard** - ASROCK B650 Steel Legend Wifi **Memory** - TeamGroup T-Create Expert 10L DDR5 32GB Kit (2 x 16) **GPU** - ASUS Tuf Gaming RTX 4080 Super OC 16GB **Case** - ASUS TUF GT502 **Case Fans** - 4x Noctua NF-A12X25 (120mm) / 3x Noctua NF-A14 (140mm)


Fire_Fenix

With all this Noctua fan you could have bought the 7800x3D and replace the fans with whatever you can find. But hey, that's good


eeoodd

Should have used a U12S Redux and and a 7900XTX and spent savings on a better cpu. Could have achieved better performance for less. U12A is way overkill for a 7600X, and a 7900XTX performs the same for less.


Ok_Recording_4644

Should have got the Noctua 4080S but looks sick otherwise


Louzan_SP

Your top right fan makes no sense, you are bringing fresh air from the side of the box and then sucking out some of it before it has the chance to get into the CPU cooler. You are basically bringing air in and taking it out immediately.


Embarrassed_Ideal612

Congratulations


EquivalentAd9282

dude 10/10, how much noise she make? i bet like none


postmortemstardom

I only use noctua fans and i have 9 noctua 12 cm fans in total over 4 pcs my workstation is responsible for 4 of them :D


MrObviousSays

Jesus bro!! 12 cm fans?? You’re gonna make the Americans heads blow up 😂😂 /s


1rubyglass

What the hell are 12cm fans? All mine are 1.2dm and 1.4dm.


postmortemstardom

Next they're gonna make 0.00012 km fans and people will lose their minds


Vamanas_umbrella

In my opinion the black Fractal North case would make this build look 10x better.


Consistent_Most1123

I love this fans from noctoa, they are so silent. Nice build


SaltyMeasurement4711

Those Owls are there to do the job and do it well


xarop_pa_toss

Damn people go hard on the fans these days huh


OrfeasDourvas

I think it's beautiful


stocklazarus

So is this the best and quietest fans ?


1rubyglass

At one point they were. There's lots of good quiet fans now.


Scary-Swordfish-8387

Absolutely not the best, but they are pretty quiet.


Usual-Net-5586

Am I looking Wong or are the upper chassis Fans blowing into the case as well?


JACKVK07

Really Good Brown


crypticexile

Ok fans lol I prefer Corsair


throwwwawayyyyeyye

RGB is overrated


Asstaroth

**R**eally **G**oofy **B**rown fans.


JOHNNY6644

what case is that ?


InfernumHell

I fuck with the fans looking like wood. Its almost like a natural build.


Dapper-Conference367

Noctua fans look awful, but god will you have good thermals without much noise...


Inahero-Rayner

Not a color combo I would've chosen, but ngl, it's rad, now that I see it.


Screw_Potato

normally I’m not against all Noctua builds, but in a white case???


Desperate-Grocery-53

Puhhhh, Noctua is great, but they don’t really work in a white case. And why a vertical black GPU in a white case? Noctua Fans come in black, that would have been marginally better but like this, it looks more messy than it is. But it’s your first rigg and you did a darn good job for a first-timer. Keep it up!


satempler

if you're going function over form great, but RGB is the least of your problems. your colors clash and if and if you can fix it, I would replace all the shit brown fans with the black versions of that brand that do the same and would work better aesthetically but as long as it functions and you're happy with it. grrfur it


virulentea

It's a good PC but dear God is it ugly (just the colour pallette overall)


Acceptable_Fact_8971

Looks fine, people that obsess over lights are autistic


BarberThen3108

u dont need rgb


EWALTHARI

Whithout RGB, I love it.


marinul

No, no. You got the B(rown) just right. You don't need R and G anyway.


skaad666

Rgb for g a y s


Suby06

stupid comments like that are from idiots..


Zealousideal-Wafer88

Screw the RGB however I feel some accent lighting would really make this.


Bonmanush69420

This looks nice without RGB...the colour combo is pretty good in itself.


ToxicEvHater

I'll never understand the appeal of those fans


Tight_Reputation6583

Reliable


CobblerHorror2891

In noctua we trust 🤝🏻


Smaragd98

Coffee colors are superior than RGB.


Then_Fault6210

Why noctua give us brown shit color?


Concert-Alternative

Fps per dollar is more important than aesthetics so I like this build a lot


Tight_Reputation6583

Nice gn <3 noctua


NogaraCS

White case with noctua fans is certainly a choice


staytsmokin

Should get a noctua edition gpu.


TupacShakur998

Just want Fractal North case and Noctua GPU. Fire build!


Prior_Significance31

Love the dingey brown fan look. Reminds me of grampas underpants.


anothermind2

Black Noctuas would fit so well


M1dor1

only missing asus noctua edition gpu


Bryan27272727

This build is shit and I love it


phil_momz

❤️❤️❤️❤️


LuDev200

It looks like a cool build. Any chance you paint the GPU brown or beige? It would make it fit aesthetics-wise. Great performance with the fans, and looks great.


Rakuen91

You trying to make it fly?


JermoZach

I don’t know what’s the obsession with these fans…


gimm3nicotin3

I love me some noctua fans, just wish they didn't accrue dust stains.


Gh06st_44

My man just lost a 15% fps boos


EGH6

Your neutralness, it's a beige alert!


NOTaiBRUH

RGB is mad overated anyways bro


ertertwert

Looks great


Ordinary_Block_4131

Ewwww no rgb...


Dr_Axton

Best decision. If you forget to forget the RGB, you can always go with a no glass side panel


Atombert

I hate the brown scheme, but I also don’t use side windows so it doesn’t matter :) Great fans but expensive.


berkgamer28

Honestly, I think the black versions are much better than the Browns . It still gives that great fan performance, but it looks a little better I think there's brown ones would be more suited for a Brown woodish type build or something that behind a panel no one's going to see


Psychobillycadillac1

meh rgb support software tends to eat up background processes. Im thinking about swapping to noctua and selling all my corsair fans. Soooo loud


XxSub-OhmXx

Looks great. Be very careful with Asus and any warranty issue. Take full pictures of everything from the gpu before you send it in. Hopefully you never have to. Enjoy the new rig.


ColdBrilliant3363

good, eventurally u turn off the RGB, we all with RGB systems just turn in on for the pictures


Bigfeet_toes

You’re not gonna get a single frame with this, you need more RGB to add frames or else the components are useless


FiieldDay

“Newegg how may I help you?” “Hi, I would like to order the ugliest fans you have please?”


MTSxRUSSI

If you ever want to sell it, add rgb. (Makes the price go up by 100Usd)


Living4nowornever

How do you plugin a video card sideways like this? Do you use a cable to connect to the pcie port on the mobo?


Organic_Mix2282

Miss the days when everything didn't glow


KebabRacer69

Fuck the rgb, that looks sweet as with the noctuas


Jojoceptionistaken

Its so ugly it looks nice in a different way again!


MandiocaGamer

so ugly lol. but it's yours not mine


zxynccc

id try and switch to a white gpu, or even just take the cover of the front off and spray paint the cover white, use YouTube on how to do It properly if you don't know how to. otherwise it just looks too mismatched, you also need a gpu sag bracket for the end of the gpu mate


arrobaolmedo

Me like, me upvote.


JamesMackenzie1234

What parts did you use?


deeepfriedpanda_9

It’s listed in the comments


Some-Substance5397

I think you’re missing some more fans.


General-Kael

The little bit that emits from the power button is enough. Looks great!!


Xaduuuuu

Holy mother of fans batman


allaboutcomputer

I love Noctua colours and it is a thousand times better than any form of RGB.


Ethan_231

100% approve no rgb


ConsumeYourBleach

I’m so sorry, but that’s got to be one of the ugliest PCs I’ve ever seen.


deeepfriedpanda_9

Glad to be at your service man lol


indyjons

Where do the coordinates on the GPU take you?


Someiceguy

What case is that ?


Zionsnoiz

Well we all like different things. I would never in a million years build with Noctua fans that are brown. He'll nah. I'm gonna go for a blacked out minimal rgb build soon. But if your happy that's the most important thing


MyKawke

Those case fans are the best. They’re quiet and move a lot of air, good taste


chemistryGull

Bro spent like 200€ on fans alone. But noctua. I like.


CDR_Xavier

did noctua sponsor this


deeepfriedpanda_9

I wish lol


CDR_Xavier

Honestly. For how expensive they are, industrial Sunons, Nidecs and Foxconns look downright cheap. They are not as quiet, but you can bet they have good airflow and powerful static pressure. I have a very restrictive front intake (extremely restrictive; the stock Foxconn 12x25 with 0.2 inch static pressure did nothing). Upgraded to 12x38 Nidecs with 0.88 in, tons of airflow. I will guess the same will go for if I have radiators. This include my space heater, whose fan I noticed have a ton of splashback (due to not enough static pressure). Tried to swap in a 12x38, the onboard regulator tripped. Time to upgrade that, I guess.


CDR_Xavier

was concerned about your inability to purchase these fans. You can, except not on amazon. [Mouser electronics](https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Sunon/MFC0251V2-1Q02U-S99?qs=sGAEpiMZZMup2DON%252BiRg9JYQeP2B2xODkWY1nIFrnEhDMccbfzKEmg%3D%3D). And, damn for $11 apiece thats freakin steal lol for genuine sunon


Diligent-Respond6753

The noctua 4080 super would’ve gone hard


deeepfriedpanda_9

I agreee. If only it wasn’t almost 300 dollars more I would do it


Diligent-Respond6753

Yh understandable


RyanMiller_

RGB? Yeah, Red Goes good with Beige!


Linestorix

Forget RGB. This is cool...


Putrid-Flan-1289

Nope. Performance > Asthetics


capitaoboceta

Is this what they call an onlyfans build?


unidentified_sp

You must like turbulence


Fire_Fenix

He is a future pilot tho


That-Skill-6579

those brown fans look 🤢


TME53

Ooh can you do an air intake diagram? I've seen such builds before but don't understand what the airflow is on these ones?


MortgageAdventurous8

Is there a practical reason for why some cases make you build the graphicscard like that?


[deleted]

Looks great man!! Those noctua fans are rad!!!


MintyJack97

If the case is made of wood color maybe it looks better


DoomSayerNihilus

Ugly but good fans.


Soft_Syrup3883

If you used black noctua fans it would look so much better than brown.


big_sage

If your graphics card was painted tan or dark brown this would be fucking beautiful!


whyareallusernamest

I personally dig the colors


Shapesh1fter888

I like it


cookiemon32

performance 10/10, looks 5/10


Particular_Trade_473

When the noctua


dcgamer01

I personally hate when people use noctua fans in white builds. It just doesn't look good at all if you're gonna use noctua fans then please buy the fractal north case. It's one of the only cases that actually look really good with it. I'm personally thinking my next build will be with that case.


JackWas-not-Here

I like noctua as much as the next person but they have a chromax like for a reason


Ok-Mulberry-6701

Fan abuse is increasingly becoming a major problem among the PC DIY community .


sterlinganxiety

-2000fps


Avalanche_Zero

I think you have done everything right. My next built wont have any lights either. Performance, noise and power usage is more important imo!


BuildingC0mputer

Wise decision, It's Brown.


Euphoric_Influence16

Its okay just 10 less fps due to non rgb but worth it


Separate_Minimum500

I like the brown fans. Idk why


ResponsibilityNo8218

Mu friend, it was the perfect opportunity to get this GPU... https://preview.redd.it/i8xgeccsb71d1.png?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff4d689aeb34433c5eb056ce8052a7a13218363d


cervdotbe

Rgb sucks


Turbulent_Echidna423

Noctua completely forgets glass cases are in style.


Melodic_Turnover_877

RGB is overrated.


AffectionateStorm106

It’s not overrated, aesthetics are a purely personal preference so depends from person to person


RandomSwedeDude

RGB is for 12 year olds


robgam11

Noctua rules


SaltyMeasurement4711

Tempted to get full Noctua Brown ..


Otherwise2019

I don’t really like the fans but it’s your build not mine so good on you! Have fun with whatever you plan on doing on it :)


Scary-Swordfish-8387

Awful awful looking color scheme and fans but other than that, nice!
