Silentiumpc was not a company with which it was familiar or possible even before this review. A creature of habit I will be or filter for the manufacturer for which I am familiar or I have used before. That can be a good thing, since it is likely to get a reliable and good quality product, but you must be careful not to let the brand’s loyalty increase when the colleagues let the standards pass, and could get some excellent products. Silentiumpc offers are aimed at the most economical end of the spectrum and with most models that pack three fans outside the box, it also reduces any need to buy additional cases. In spite of the low price, Silentiumpc packs cases with as many amenities of creatures as fans, similar to the way in which the base models of the smallest automobile companies are full of what would be expectation complement options with other more “premium” brands. Let’s see if the RG6V TG regnum designed by Polish is one to see, or one to get lost.
For a budget case, it was certainly well packaged, with a separate piece of foam that protected the glass panel. It had occurred to me before the case manufacturers have a fairly arrogant attitude towards the transport of glass, without further protection of the bee offered with any of the glass boxes that have passed me through my hands. At least not the best I can.
The case is pleasant enough to see. It is predominantly its typical black box, but the front panel has an acute angular pinch halfway, a repeated pattern in the upper and lower part through an intention of the bright black hexagonal mesh that provides the case of its air. It is a rather aggressive posture that reminds me of the rear air ducts in current Lamborghinis. In the middle of that front mesh is a small badge with a stylized “S” that serves as a Silentium PC logo.
The front, the roof, the floor and the back of the box are well ventilated, with the three old ones who have filters of some description. The front panel is made of plastic and is linked to the steel chassis with a few thrust pins, dating too much uprising. This becomes easier using the front I/O that binds to the roof metal panel instead of the front plastic section. This front section is in two parts; A thick external frame that binds to the box, then a double -layer ventilated panel.
The ventilation comprises a hexagonal wire mesh in the front, with a finer filter in the form of a 12 mm fabric behind, both permanently united to the frame of this internal section. That the filter is permanently fixed in this way, it makes cleaning difficult, but the two parts are connected by magnets that have inserted both pictures, so the filtered panel can be removed from the front only for a rinse and turn. It is a very orderly and perfect solution and eliminates the front of those ugly square filter frames.
Behind the front panel, you feel three of Sigma HP120 fans of Silentium PC. They are mounted outside the front fan rails, but the rails have bone insertion, so there are 17 mm of breathing space between the filter and the fans. Fans look at the first inspection, an elegant 9 -sheet fan with the Silentium PC logo in the center of the cube, both the frame and the blades also feel solid. However, when giving the fan blades a squeeze, it reveals a fairly rough and tatanous finish at the edges of the blades.
The front can also assemble 2x 140 mm fans and even a 60 mm 60 mm radiator, but any radiator will eat in the free space of the GPU. The upper fan support can take 2x 120 mm or 140 mm fans and even a 280 mm radiator. SilentiumTPC is specific that the compatibility of the 280 mm radiator is only with 25 mm thick fans and a radi of 28 mm, but given that I measured the space to the VRM heat dissipator as 52 mm and you would also have to take the front EPS and I/S cables. Possible, but not really advisable.
The roof and the lower part of the sports box magnetized filters. I like the idea of using a magnetized filter at the bottom, since it means that it can be removed to clean from any direction. The lower part of the box is ventilated from front to the rear feet, to where the free space of the front radiator ends, so it offers air flow to the entire floor and not only to the PSU.
Then there is a 4th HP120 Sigma fan at the back of the box, which is 16 mm travel between the highest and lowest assembly positions. You can only assemble 120 mm fans and radiators in the rear.
The front I/O has power buttons and restoration, separate headphones and microphone ports and 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 type A. The 2 USB plugs are, for some reason, oriented in an opposite way … just to make sure that you only get your USB device in the nth attempt. Since all the images of the case on the website show them in front of the same address, I can only assume that this is a manufacturing error that slid QC. Both remain functional thoughts and the inclusion of rubber blanking for audio and USB ports is a good touch.
