Silentium T5 Pro - The Sound of Silence
Thermodynamics
As its predecessor the Silentium T Pro did not follow the ATX standard in terms of thermodynamics. This case was developed for noise reduction and optimal thermodynamic properties.
Warm air emitted from the CPU cooler rises unhindered to the top of the case and is blown out via 2 temperature controlled fans this stops the CPU cooler from simply churning the same warm air over and over again.
Cool air is drawn inside the case towards the CPU cooler, voltage converters and expansion cards. This allows for the temperature of sensitive components to decrease significantly.
Two 80 mm chassis (1900 RPM) and a 120 mm (1500 RPM) PSU fan ventilate the PC case. The rotation speed of all fans is controlled according to the system load. Warm air is exhausted at the rear top and through the base at the front.
Noise Reduction
The case has been designed from scratch with the goal to reduce the noise to an absolute minimum. Openings to the front of the case were intentionally left out.
Air exhaustion and power supply cooling have been configured for a high end PC, despite this high end configuration the system operates virtually silent.
The fans contain a patented vibration absoption in order to lower the noise level further.
I/O Front Connectors
Audio in and out as well as two USB 2.0 connectors are included in the front bezel.
HDD Muffler
Harddisk noise and vibration are eliminated by encapsulating it into absorbers. A HDD cooler keeps it at a low temperature.
Torsionproof Chassis
The mechanicaly optimized construction using 0.8 mm SECC steel makes this case one of the most torsion resistant cases available despite a relative low weight.
Optional Air Hood
To enhance the cooling performance, an optional Air Hood may be installed at the backwall.
Air Hood 1 is recommended if the cooler fan blows air down towards the CPU.
