ARCTIC Silentium T1 Midi-Tower

Silentium T1 Thermodynamics
The Silentium T-Series is the first PC Tower case, which in terms of thermodynamics does not follow the ATX standard of the mid 1990s. This case was developed from scratch based o­n the idea of noise reduction and optimal thermodynamic properties.

-Warm air emitted from the CPU cooler rise unhindered towards the top of the
case blown out of the case via 2 temperature controlled fans spinning at max. 1900 RPM. 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 and expansion cards. This allows for the temperature of sensitive components to decrease significantly.

-The power supply is cooled via 2 temperature controlled fans spinning at max.1900 RPM. Thanks to the lower position of the power supply a smaller airflow is sufficient for cooling.

Noise Reduction
The case has been designed from start 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 configuratoin the system operates virtually silent.

I/O Front Connectors
Audio In and Out as well as two USB 2.0 connectors are included in the front bezel. The IEEE 1394 (Firewire) connector is optional

HDD Muffler
An a luminum frame muffles the harddrive noise and at the same time keeps it cool. The suspended frame stops vibrations from carrying over o­n to the chassis.
