I have plenty of fans that have been running non stop for 10+ years that don't say Noctua on them. Just say'n.
I have some 15+yr old LED Antec fans still going strong. Some with 3 speed switches and some with variable speed unfortunately all are molex powered.

Last year I was gonna wait for 3 of these in a Torrent case, but couldn't wait and got Torrent Compact and 3x NF-A12x25 fans instead. I can't hear it, it's awesome. Only downside is not enough room for 4080 card length unless I get Noctua GPU. The irony is not lost on me.
But I could now realise the dream quiet PC with 3 of these a Torrent Case.
Or door #3 get a wife and start a family, might be cheaper.

How spoiled and out of the real world do you have to be to pay 80 bucks for a pair of turd-coloured pc fans?
Probably get a three pack of Artic P14 PWM fans for less than one of these turd coloured Noctuas in Australia

release an all black/gray version.
reduce all the extras in the package to zero, sell them as extras
eliminate any fancy or superfluous cardboard in the box, and have no plastic

Cut price accordingly

I give it a few months until Thermaltake releases Toughfan 14 V2s based on the A14x25 G2, in multiple colors and like 90% of the performance.

Or for Thermalright to copy it and release it at 1/4th the cost and 95% the performance in about a year, with the same sorcery they've used for their 120mm and 140mm renditions of the GT or A12x25.
