The Wait Is Almost Over – Noctua’s Best Fans will Soon be Available in black

Noctua has started teasing something new, claiming that “The wait is almost over…” in their latest YouTube video. Thankfully, we already know what’s coming, not thanks to a leak, but Noctua’s official product roadmap. 

In Q4 2021, Noctua’s scheduled to launch a black version of NF-A12x25 fans and a black version of their NH-U12A heatsink. Both products were showcased as part of Noctua’s latest Chromax series video. 

Noctua’s NF-A12x25 series fans were launched in 2018, becoming one of the first fan manufacturers to utilise the ultra-stiff sterrox material for their fan blades. At launch, Noctua’s NF-A12x25 fans were amongst the best available on the market, both for airflow and static pressure focused use cases. Now, these premium fans will be available in black. That’s good news for everyone who dislikes Noctua’s traditional brown and beige colour scheme. 
 
The NH-U12A is Noctua’s only heatsink that uses the company’s premium NF-A12x25 fans. Noctua’s NH-U12A launched in 2019 and was created to deliver levels of cooling performance that could match larger heatsinks from their competitors. 140mm cooling performance within the 120mm heatsink form factor. Now, this heatsink will be available in black, improving the aesthetic of Noctua’s high-performance 120mm heatsink. 

Noctua has now confirmed that these new all-black fans and heatsinks will be available soon. Expect Noctua to release these new products before Christmas.
