So Noctua have silenced the "the brown never matches with anything" crowd by just partnering up and doing brown versions of everything?

I mean the economy is also away to go like the 70s, so why not our PCs to match 1970s style furniture and general aesthetic?
 
Meet the aircooled build! All Noctua brown and tan in a open frame for maximum FU! A watercooled system is coming next.

@Jay85 - Was doomscrolling Facebook and thought "I'm sure I recognise that"... Congrats on the Seasonic feature! :D (but why did they know it was finished ~12h before us? :P )

I’ve been so busy with my new job and looking after my little one that the timing was way off haha. Needed to get the social posts out first as its part of an agreed schedule. I never forget about you lot though! Always on the back of my mind!

Thanks btw! :D:p
 
Well, you've certainly gone all-in on the Noctua brown! I guess it goes with the general build ethos - either hide it or make a feature of it.
Weirdly I'm most interested in the Seasonic 90° ATX connector. Was looking very recently and you can only get poor quality plain and disturbingly uninsulated or rainbow unicorn vomit. I went with the former and 3D printed a cover but it's interesting to see there's a 3rd option!

I’ve done a few Noctua builds previously but they were Chromax so all black and looking generally like any other build. Going full brown really made a difference. It got people excited and angry at the same time :cry:.

The 90 degree connector is a fantastic bit of kit that also acts as a tester too. Well built and does the job and as far as im aware, it comes with all the high end Seasonic PSU’s. I haven’t checked the regular TX-1600 yet but i’m sure that comes with one too.
