00:00:00.719 --> 00:00:07.359
so along with the spitfire six uh GPU cooler which you can see to my right

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:12.000
your left thermal right also sent me a fan to go with it the x silent 140. now

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:15.839
the spitfire 6 is compatible out of the box with either a 120 or a 140

00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.880
millimeter fan but i thought i'd just take a moment and unbox this particular

00:00:18.400 --> 00:00:24.640
fan for your unboxing pleasure so it is high efficient and low noise by 11 wings

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:31.359
design so what they mean is that it has 11 wings okay our wings up blades not

00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:36.719
wings uh liquid state bearing in 50 000 hour long 50 000 long life hours 7 volts

00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:42.160
of power usage can be adjusted via fan control device okay is a 140 by 140 by

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:45.520
25 millimeter so this is a standard thickness fan it has a liquid stapler i

00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:49.120
don't know what a liquid state bearing is to be perfectly honest with you

00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:51.760
startup voltage is 7 volts that's pretty good

00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:56.160
typically very very very good fans will start up

00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:00.160
around 5 volts but 7 volts is still very respectable for a 140 millimeter fan

00:00:58.559 --> 00:01:04.799
especially because i'm thinking in terms of 120 mils rated current uh rated speed

00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:08.400
is 900 RPM you can read all this why am i even

00:01:06.080 --> 00:01:12.240
reading this out there you done reading good okay so let's unbox this fan and

00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:18.159
then i'm actually going to show the procedure to install it onto the

00:01:14.479 --> 00:01:20.159
spitfire 6 graphics card cooler so 140

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:24.400
millimeter fans actually let me grab a 120 millimeter fan that i tossed out of

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:28.640
the way when i was clearing my desk so i'll just grab that so this is a 140

00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:33.840
millimeter fan versus a 120 millimeter fan you can see it is quite a lot bigger

00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:38.400
so that means that just like moving from 80 to 120 millimeter you can just spin

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:44.159
the blade slower and still get the same amount of cooling so this is kind of a

00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:45.759
smoked gray acrylic sort of look to it

00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:50.079
it's kind of nice and you've got a thermal right logo up in the middle here

00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:53.600
the frame itself is more of a more of an opaque black

00:01:51.600 --> 00:01:56.560
and this is interesting there are

00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:01.040
oh i get it there are holes um around this fan

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.479
because this is not the led version but it looks like you could you could

00:02:02.320 --> 00:02:08.479
actually probably jury rig leds into this fan if you really wanted to

00:02:06.399 --> 00:02:12.000
um let's look around at the back so on the back you can see we've got the basic

00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:15.520
specs for the fan all right i've had enough talking about the fan let's talk

00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:19.840
about the sleeving on the cable so the sleeving on the cable is actually this

00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:23.920
is pretty darn good quality sleeving hey you know what so few companies have

00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.680
this figured out where they use a good quality sleeving a good quality heat

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:31.120
shrink and then the cable you can't see the color of it so you can see they've

00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:36.080
sleeved right up to the end and you cannot see the color of the cables

00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.560
inside at all so i'm gonna set this up

00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:43.920
so that the fan is actually pushing air down onto my heatsink okay so i pull

00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:48.560
back the wire clips just like this i've already inserted them into the holes and

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.360
i'll get the cameraman to have a look at um at the one on his side so give me two

00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:56.959
seconds here cameraman and i will get around to that side to show you so you

00:02:55.360 --> 00:03:02.319
can see there are holes on the side of the spitfire six there are two at the

00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:06.480
either end extremes so those are the 140 millimeter holes and then there are two

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:10.879
more one here and one here right above these two heat pipes so that is for 120

00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:16.000
millimeter there's one more here and i have no idea what that's for so why

00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:19.599
don't we go ahead and put the fan down and you know what to be perfectly honest

00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:23.760
i'm pretty sure that thermal write includes um

00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:27.920
little rubber strips to dampen the noise but they would be in the

00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:31.360
um in the box right now and i don't have

00:03:29.519 --> 00:03:35.040
that handy so you can see it mounts quite you know what i wonder if that's

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:38.000
what the foams are for well i'm not going to stress about it let's turn on

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:41.599
the system and you can see how loud this fan is i don't have it plugged in yet

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:46.400
but i'm going to plug it into one of the fan headers on the classified motherboard that i'm running here now

00:03:44.720 --> 00:03:50.080
something to note is that the compatibility for the spitfire six i was

00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:55.720
a little bit confused about it when i did my original video and uh so the

00:03:52.879 --> 00:04:01.920
compatibility is with the 5850 and the 5870 and this vrm module is also

00:03:58.959 --> 00:04:05.680
compatible with the 5850 and 5870 but what thermal write doesn't tell you

00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:11.080
because it's possible that they don't know is that this heatsink is also

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:16.959
compatible with the ifinity 6 edition 5870 so that's the gig version of this

00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:20.639
card so if you look around at the back of the video card itself you gotta kind

00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:25.520
of get down at this angle here cameraman sorry about that thermal raid has

00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:30.880
actually included so many extra memory heatsinks that i was able to nope sorry

00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:34.639
about that that i was able to install it on the for on the two gig version of the

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:38.639
card without having to buy any additional memory heatsinks so good on

00:04:36.400 --> 00:04:41.600
them for uh for going ahead and doing that anyway i wish i could show you some

00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:45.120
temperature settings but i don't have the drivers installed but thank you for

00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:53.400
checking out my unboxing of the x silent 140 as well as the installation onto the

00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:53.400
spitfire 6.
