Endorfy Navis F360 – Third time’s the charm…

Conclusion and evaluation

Today I would like to introduce another liquid all-in-one cooler from Endorfy. After testing the Navis F240 ARGB and Navis F280, it’s now the turn of the biggest brother of these coolers, the Navis F360. As with the other coolers in the updated Navis series, here you’ll also find the good old Endorfy Fluctus fans. And with a price tag of around 110 EUR, there is again a decent potential for an attractive price/performance/quality ratio.

Conclusion and evaluation

The Endorfy Navis 360 cooler fits in nicely with the other coolers in the Navis series and offers expectedly high cooling effectiveness. It clearly outperforms the smaller Navis F240 and battles for first places with the Navis F280, where it’s a very close fight indeed. The operating optimum of this cooler is around 40–50% fan PWM duty cycle, which will ensure high effectiveness with acceptable noise. While the pump is audible at maximum speed, unless you have (like me) a build tuned for the lowest noise, you probably won’t even know it’s there. It’s also virtually inaudible at minimum speed.

High build quality and minimalist design are already the typical features of Navis coolers and again I appreciate the serial fan connection with elegant cable routing from the factory. The only minor drawback is the three-year warranty. Here, I personally would love to see a six-year warranty like the Endorfy air coolers. A considerable positive is then the price tag of around 110 EUR, which will certainly give the competition in the same class of coolers a hard time. Overall, this is a very good cooler at an interesting price and as such it earns the Smart Buy! editorial award.

Noctua: New 140 mm fans to premiere on a CPU cooler

Noctua’s long-awaited next-gen fans in the 140mm format have experienced a setback in their planned release, but they also haven’t. They have indeed been delayed from the second to third quarter of 2024 in terms of standalone availability, but they should be out soon together with the cooler that replaces the NH-D15 at the top of the lineup. In addition, it’s also been somewhat declassified which of the “older” projects is nearing completion. Read more “Noctua: New 140 mm fans to premiere on a CPU cooler” »

New Liquid Freezer (III): Better contact and compressor from a plane

Arctic says that historically, it can’t recall a product receiving more user interest right out of the gate, just after release, than the Liquid Freezer III coolers. But no wonder. In addition to efficient fans, they bring several features to enhance cooling performance. The latter is not only high, but also very affordable. Arctic has put the coolers on sale with a rather large, still ongoing discount. A 360-millimeter variant for under 80 euros?

BeQuiet! Dark Rock Elite – The new king of coolers?

I will start this year’s cooler tests with a real treat. I’ve prepared a review of the Dark Rock Elite cooler, the absolute top of BeQuiet!’s range. This is a premium cooler offering very high performance at low noise levels thanks to its sophisticated design in combination with high-end fans. I’m very curious to see how it performs compared to the high-end coolers I’ve had the opportunity to test over the past year. Read more “BeQuiet! Dark Rock Elite – The new king of coolers?” »
