Final words and conclusion
Final words and conclusion
The SilentiumPC Endorfy Navis F360 AIO Liquid Cooler offers a good level of cooling performance at an attractive price. This liquid cooler is priced at roughly 110 Euros, making it a highly attractive option for those who want to achieve optimal cooling results without breaking the bank. Despite its lower price point, the Endorfy Navis F360 offers competitive performance. More attractive might be the 280mm model, however, which sits well under the 100 EUR marker. While the noise output of the cooler can be heard when the fans and pumps are running at full speed, it's not so loud that it becomes a nuisance. The fans can be controlled to run at a range of 250-1800 RPM, offering plenty of tuning opportunities. The pre-installed fans and integrated motherboard socket bracket make installation of the cooler a breeze. However, upgrading the cooler to support future Intel or AMD platforms may prove to be a challenge.
Aesthetics & Design
The sleek black finish and simple design make for an appealing final product. It's a nice touch that the factory-installed fans are daisy-chained, with only a single cable running from the radiator to the motherboard. Indeed, the neater the wire routing, the better it looks. Our only complaint is that the fan cable seems a little short. The design is satisfactory overall.
Installation
The assembly process of this kit is simple and efficient, similar to other models. The closed-loop coolant system and fans are pre-installed at the factory. To install the kit, simply place the backplate and standoff screws, position the cooler, and secure it with the provided hardware. With a minimal time investment of only ten minutes, even those without advanced technical skills can easily assemble the kit. Overall, the performance of the 360mm kit is what may be expected in terms of its cooling capacity. Even when the processor is overclocked, the kit maintains its performance without any issues. The fans and pump can also be set to silent if you manually configure the fans in your BIOS; however, will likely cost you some performance under hefty and long workloads.
Pricing
The LCS, evaluated in this review, carries a price tag of 110 EUR and offers a reasonable cooling performance for the cost. However, the 280mm version of the LCS may deliver comparable results at a more affordable price of 90 EUR.
Conclusion
There have been no significant concerns raised about the construction quality of the Navis F360 AiO water cooler, except for a somewhat short fan cable. While its noise level of 39~40 dB may be a bit high, it can easily be adjusted without compromising the cooler's impressive performance. For those seeking a minimalist water cooling solution without any RGB lighting, this device presents itself as a cost-effective and solid choice. The three fans come pre-installed on the radiator, featuring neatly organized connections for a sleek and polished look. Additionally, the three-year manufacturer's warranty boosts the product's overall appeal, assuring customers of the value they're receiving and affirming their confidence in their investment..
