Silentiumpc was not a company with which I was familiar or, perhaps, generally knew at all before this review. The creature of the habit that I often filter the manufacturer, for those I are familiar or used before. This can be a good thing, as you probably get a good, reliable product, but you must be careful not to allow the brand’s loyalty when companies allow the standards to slip, and you can miss some excellent products. Silentiumpc proposals are intended for the more budget end of the spectrum, and most models pack three or four fans from the box, this also reduces the need to buy additional fans of the corps. Despite the low price, Silentiumpc packs covers with the same number of business amenities as fans, similarly as the basic models of small automobile companies are filled with what would be expensive additional options with other more “premium” brands. Let's see if the Polish regne RG6V TG is, or to skip one of them?
For a budget case, he was certainly well packed, with a separate foam that protects the glass panel. This did not occur to me before these corps manufacturers have a fairly caval attitude to the transportation of glass, and no more protection is offered with which the glass that went through my hands. At least not to the best of my memory.
The case is pleasant enough to see. This is mainly your typical black box, but the front panel has an acute angular pinch halfway, the pattern is repeated from above and below, by retreating a thin glossy hexagonal mesh, which provides the case. This is a rather aggressive position that reminds me of the airborne air ducts on the current Lamborghinis. In the middle of this front mesh there is a small icon with a stylized “S” that serves the Silentiumpc logo.
The front, roof, floor and back of the body are well thought out, and the first three have filters of some descriptions. The front panel is plastic and attached to a steel chassis with several pushing pins that go out without any fuss. This is made easier due to the attachment to the metal panel of the roof, and not to the front plastic section. This front part is in two parts; The edge of the outer frame, which is attached to the case, then the two -layer central ventilated panel.
Ventilation consists of a hexagonal wire mesh in front, with a thiner fabric filter of 12 mm, both are forever attached to the frame of this inside. Often the presence of a filter, constantly fixed in this way, makes it difficult to clean, but two parts are connected by magnets that were inserted into both frames, so the filtered panel can be removed in front for rinsing and rotation. This is a very neat and unreasonable solution and saves before the front of these ugly square filter frames.
Behind the front panel are three fans of Silentiumpc Sigma HP120. They are installed on the outside of the front rails of the fan, but the rails were inserted, so there were 17 mm respiratory space between the filter and the fans. Fans watch the role in the first examination, a smooth-black-black fan with a 9-year-old logo with the Silentiumpc logo in the center of the concentrator, both the frame and the blades also feel firm. However, giving the fan blad, this reveals a rather rough and tatti finish to the edges of the blades.
The front can also install 2x 140 mm fans and up to a 360-mm radiator with a thickness of 60 mm, but any radiator will eat in your graphic process. The upper fan can take the fan by 2 times 120 mm or 140 mm and up to 280 -mm radiator. Silentiumpc indicates that compatibility with a radiator of 280 mm consists only of 25 mm and RAD 28 mm thick fans, but given that I measured the gap to the VRM radiator as 52 mm, and you will also have to clean the EP and anterior input/output cables, this would be incredibly stressful. Perhaps, but not very appropriate.
The roof and the lower side of the case I like the idea to use a magnetized filter at the bottom, as this means that it can be removed for cleaning from any direction. The lower part of the body is ventilated right in front of the hind legs, up to the place where the front radiator radiator ends, so it offers air flow to the entire floor, and not just for PSU.
Then, in the back of the case, the 4th Sigma HP120 fan is detected, which has 16 mm movements between the highest and lowest mounting positions. Only 120 -mm fans and radiators can be installed behind.
The front input-output has power buttons and reset buttons, separate ports for headphones and microphone and 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports. 2 USB rods for some reason are oriented by opposite ways … just to make sure that you only have connected your USB device using Umptege Percement. Considering that all the images of the case on the web, show that they are faced with the same direction, I can only assume that this is a production error that slipped past the QC. Both are still functioning, and the inclusion of rubber plugs for ports for both audio and USB ports is a pleasant touch.
