I gave my main system the Noctua treatment...
Aren't they just beautiful?
I actually unironically like how Noctua fans look. They're so iconic and unique.
In total, I got three NF-A14s, two NF-A15s (one of which I'm not using yet), and an NF-F12.
They were pretty expensive, but so far, they've lived up to the hype. They're much quieter than my old Cryorig XF140s (which are now in my server) straight away and are completely silent with a fine-tuned fan curve. My CPU temps even seem a bit better.
My only complaint is that they seem to resonate at about 50% speed, which is really annoying. Of course, all I have to do is tune my fan curve to avoid that.
I'm using software literally just called "Fan Control" to fine-tune everything, which is open-source and better than SpeedFan ever was.
This is the release repository for Fan Control, a highly customizable fan controlling software for Windows. - Rem0o/FanControl.Releases

Now I kinda want to get a couple of NF-A14s for my server and maybe even a trio of NF-A9x14s for my GPU.
