Noctua's all-in-one liquid cooler has finally received a release window in 2026, but a few fans, cases, and mice have been pushed back in the latest roadmap

Noctua has some interesting products in the pipeline. Collaborations with other brands, slapping its fans and iconic colourway onto new products, and new inventions that we've been waiting on for a little while. The bad news is it's still a good wait for that nifty liquid cooler we were looking at earlier this year. The good news is we have a more accurate release window for it.

In May of this year, the roadmap said the black version of Noctua's NF-A12X25 G2 fans, known as Chromax Black, would be launching in Q3. That has now been pushed back to Q4 this year. That's a shame, as I know plenty of people have been waiting on these fans in a more palatable colourway. They're still the best PC fans around, even in beige, promise.
