SilentiumPC Navis 280 RGB (continued)

Here, the provided fans are the SilentiumPC Sigma HP RGB 140 mm. You’ll receive two of them. The fans have a black, plastic frame with 9 white/transparent blades. Anti-vibration pads are provided on the mounting corners, and that’s a nice bonus given the price.

The basic specifications are listed below:

• Fan Dimensions: 140 x 140 x 25 mm
• Fan Speed: 800 ~ 1800 RPM +/- 10 %
• Control Mode: PWM

In practice, the useful RPMs are listed below (screengrab from the Asus AI Suite):

 In Fan Xpert 4, it was possible to set the RPMs as low as ~520 (in Extreme Quiet mode), whereas the maximum is 1720 (SilentiumPC declares the range of 800-1800). You have to remember that results may vary depending on the fan sample and the motherboard too.

 Not surprisingly, it’s still a plain, slim aluminium radiator with many fins. The dimensions are 310 x 140 x 28 mm.  

 As for the pump, it has an RGB strip around the block, and the SilentiumPC logo on top of it. Overall, the look is good, but nothing fancy  Three flat cables come out from the side of the block:

• 1x SATA cable
• 1x RGB connector (plugged into the motherboard)
• 1x RGB pass-through connector (for linking to the fans etc)

The Navis RGB 240 uses 380 mm long, flexible tubing, sleeved for better aesthetics. Last but not least, you can easily refill the liquid via a port on the edge of the radiator.
