 So along with the Spitfire 6 GPU cooler which you can see to my right your left Thermalright also sent me a fan to go with it the X silent 140 now the Spitfire 6 is compatible out of the box with either a 120 or 140 millimeter fan but I thought I'd just take a moment and unbox this particular fan for your unboxing pleasure so it is high efficient and low noise by 11 wings design so what they mean is that it has 11 wings okay our wings up blades not wings liquid state bearing and 50,000 hour long 50,000 long life hours 7 volts of power usage can be adjusted via fan control device okay is a 140 by 140 by 25 millimeter so there's a standard thickness fan it has a liquid state bearing I don't know what liquid state bearing is to be perfectly honest with you startup voltage is 7 volts that's pretty good typically very very very good fans will start up around 5 volts but 7 volts is still very respectable for a 140 millimeter fan especially because I'm thinking in terms of 120 mils rated current rated speed is 900 rpm you can read all this why am I even reading this out there you done reading good okay so let's unbox this fan and then I'm actually going to show the procedure to install it on to the Spitfire 6 graphics card cooler so 140 millimeter fans actually let me grab a 120 millimeter fan that I tossed out of the way when I was clearing my desk so I'll just grab that so this is a 140 millimeter fan versus a 120 millimeter fan you can see it is quite a lot bigger so that means that just like moving from 80 to 120 millimeter you can just spin the blade slower and still get the same amount of cooling so this is kind of a smoked gray acrylic sort of look to it it's kind of nice and you've got a thermal right logo up in the middle here the frame itself is more of a more of an opaque black and this is interesting there are oh I get it there are holes around this fan because this is not the LED version but it looks like you could you could actually probably jury rig LEDs into this fan if you really wanted to let's look around at the back so on the back you can see we've got the basic specs for the fan all right I've had enough talking about the fan let's talk about the sleeving on the cable so the sleeving on the cable is reason actually this is pretty darn good quality sleeping hey you know what so few companies have this figured out where they use a good quality sleeping a good quality heat shrink and then the cable you can't see the color of it so you can see they've sleeved right up to the end and you cannot see the color of the cables inside at all so I'm gonna set this up so that the fan is actually pushing air down onto my heat sink okay so I pull back the wire clips just like this I've already inserted them into the holes and I'll get the cameraman to have a look at the one on his side so give me two seconds here cameraman and I will get around to that side to show you so you can see there are holes on the side of the Spitfire 6 there are two at the either end extremes so those are the 140 millimeter holes and then there are two more one here and one here right above these two heat pipes so that is for 120 millimeter there's one more here and I have no idea what that's for so why don't we go ahead and put the fan down and you know what to be perfectly honest I'm pretty sure that thermal right includes little rubber strips to dampen the noise but they would be in the in the box right now and I don't have that handy so you can see it mounts quite you know what I wonder if that's what the foams are for well I'm not gonna stress about it let's turn on the system and you can see how loud this fan is I don't have it plugged in yet but I'm gonna plug it into one of the fan headers on the classified motherboard that I'm running here now something to note is that the compatibility for the Spitfire 6 I was a little bit confused about it when I did my original video and so the compatibility is with the 5850 and the 5870 and this VRM module is also compatible with the 5850 and 5870 but what thermal right doesn't tell you because it's possible that they don't know is that this heat sink is also compatible with the ifinity 6 edition 5870 so that's the 2 gig version of this card so if you look around at the back of the video card itself you gotta kind of get down at this angle here cameraman sorry about that thermal right has actually included so many extra memory heat sinks that I was able to no sorry about that that I was able to install it on the four on the 2 gig version of the card without having to buy any additional memory heat sinks so good on them for for going ahead and doing that anyway I wish I could show you some temperature settings but I don't have the drivers installed but thank you for checking out my unboxing of the X silent 140 as well as the installation on to the Spitfire 6
