So, I'm a bit confused on the premise of pushing Noctua themed cards. One would think the design of heatpipe cooler would be more important than the fan blowing on it? One needn't brand a card Noctua to get silent fans or maybe high static pressure fans? I'm missing the point. Maybe it's being marketed to those who already have the only a mother would love because they're so ugly colored fans in their system? I still don't know why the dual brown themed fans are still a thing when Noctua also makes regular black colored fans?
It's always impressed me just how tone deaf Notcua is with their branding colors. Noctua is a strong brand despite their branding, not because of it. That says a lot toward their engineering and technical design when they are a success despite such ugly branding. Just imagine if they actually killed off the 2-tone brown nonsense? Sure, they already make everything in black also, but why the 2-tone brown at all? It's not a good look. Makes me wonder the origin story of it all. Maybe they got a ton of excess brown dye for plastic extrusion for cheap when they started out and just kept at it?
