Reverse blade Nyota Ultra fans are priced identically to the forward versions. A single is R249 and a three-pack R649 either way. That removes price from the decision entirely, leaving blade direction as a question about where the fan sits and which face is seen.
Picking a fan's blade direction usually means picking a price penalty along with it, except that is not how this range works. The Nyota Ultra line from AsiaHorse lists its reverse-blade option at exactly the same rand figure as the standard version, in every size the catalogue carries. A single fan and a three-fan set cost the same whichever way the blades face, which turns a choice that often carries a surcharge into a plain question of where the fan sits and which side the case window shows.
A single Nyota Ultra is R249 and a three-pack is R649, and both figures hold whether you choose the standard blade orientation or the reverse-blade version, in black or white. There is no premium anywhere in the range for reverse blades, so blade direction can be decided purely on placement rather than on budget.
Reverse-blade fans are typically a smaller production run than the standard version, and that scarcity often shows up as a few extra rand on the shelf price. AsiaHorse has not built that gap into the Nyota Ultra pricing. The single sits at R249 and the three-pack at R649 no matter which blade shape you tick, so the usual excuse for skipping reverse blades on cost grounds does not apply here.
Flipping to reverse does not touch the airflow figures, the RPM range, or the lighting. It changes which face of the fan looks finished, which matters in a position where the back of a standard fan would otherwise be the side pointed at the glass. The infinity-mirror ring and its 16 addressable ARGB LEDs appear on both versions, so the lit element stays consistent across a mixed row.
Because there is no cost difference, a build can mix forward and reverse fans freely to match whatever each position needs, without doing mental maths about which choice is the cheaper one. An intake row seen from inside the case can run full reverse, while a rear exhaust that nobody looks at stays on the standard version, at the same price either way. For anyone assembling a fan order, the case fan range is worth a browse alongside the wider case accessories selection for daisy-chain leads and mounting extras.
No. A single costs R249 and a three-pack R649 no matter which direction you pick, in black or white, with no surcharge attached to either.
Only which side of the fan faces the viewer. Airflow, RPM range and the lighting ring stay the same across both versions.
Yes, and the equal pricing makes it straightforward, since neither direction costs more to add to the mix.
It should, since both versions use the same infinity-mirror ring with 16 addressable LEDs.
None that the listing states. Airflow and speed figures are unchanged between the two directions.
Black and white are both listed with the reverse-blade option, as singles and as three-packs.
