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.
