Enermax SquA RGB White: In many ways… unusual

Results: Vibration, in total (3D vector length)

Apart from the all-white design, which is rare in itself, this fan also stands out from the competition in other ways. Some of these need a cautionary finger raised, others deserve praise. Often for trying to differentiate themselves and even in a rather elegant, useful way. In the mix of everything about the SquA RGB fan, one can state its unique identity, for which it may win you over. But it also doesn’t have to.

Results: Vibration, in total (3D vector length)

Explanatory note: We have already described how to measure the vibration intensity in the corresponding chapter within the testing methodology. However, it is worth emphasizing here what we mean by “cumulative vibration”. In order to be able to interpret the motion in the three axes (X, Y, Z) as simply as possible, with a single number, we consider the individual axes as vectors and calculate the so-called 3D vector from them. A more detailed account at the level of the individual axes is given in the next three chapters of this article.







Why is there a missing value sometimes? There may be more reasons. Usually it is because the fan could not be adjusted to the target noise level. Some have a higher minimum speed (or the speed is low, but the motor is too noisy) or it is a slower fan that will not reach the higher decibels. But the results in the graphs are also missing if the rotor is brushing against the nylon filter mesh. In that case, we evaluate this combination as incompatible. And zero in the graphs is naturally also in situations where we measure 0.00. This is a common occurrence at extremely low speeds with obstructions or within vibration measurements.
