Redux - the new Noctua fan series

The new series Redux of Noctua is now on the market. Many gamers has complained that the two standard colours of Noctua - light brown and red brown are not always appropriate to blend in al other colors inside the PC case. On other hand Noctua wants to keep their products distinct from the other products on the market. And their little bit strange colors are exactly what gives their unique look. Actually it is enough to see part of the fan to see the brown color and you can say: "Oh, yes Noctua." And this is exactly what Noctua wants. A time ago they have released industrial series of fans. In these fans they have put small brown plastic at the corners of the fan, keeping everything else black, again the brown color was speaking "Noctua". This time their series Redux is coming and it seems that it color scheme is completely different. Actually there is no tiny nuance of brown anywhere, the whole fan, the frame and the propeller are completely grey - no other colors. The one thing that they kept is that the frame is lighter and the propeller darker.
So Redux... the new series on the market. Technically they are completely the same like the normal Noctua fan. But they come with reduced price. How this happens? Simple by sending less accessors in the package. Its possible that the company wants to get more market share going in the middle class segment of the market.
The available models are 13 the models names are NF-P14, NF-S12B, NF-B9 и NF-R8. The rotating speed varies between 700RPM and 1800RPM. There are five 14cm models - all with square frames only NF-P14r comes with round frame. Three versions of S12B the 12cm models and three versions of the R8 models. B9 models comes in only 2 models.
Anyway if you want to put the silent Noctua fan inside you PC now you can do this on more affordable price. The 14cm fans will cost 15.90eu, the 12cm 13.90eu, the 92mm will cost 11.90eu and the 80mm - 10.90eu.
