SilentiumPC Fera 3 RGB HE1224 CPU Air Cooler Review

Introduction

SilentiumPC Fera 3 RGB HE1224

SilentiumPC is not one of the best-known brands when it comes to system components. They have, however, over the years released a very solid range of products. The company clearly has a strong emphasis on cooling as the vast majority of their components are either system chassis designs or cooling solutions (be it fans or CPU coolers). As such, concentrating on one are you would hope that they are looking to specialise and by proxy, get some impressively good products onto the market.

With this in mind, we take a closer look at the SilentiumPC Fera 3 RGB HE1224. Their latest offering for inexpensive CPU air coolers offering some impressive RGB effects as well as strong performance.

Given that the market is flooded with inexpensive air coolers though, you might wonder what this does to stand out from the pack. Well, let’s take a closer look!

What SilentiumPC Had To Say

“Fera 3 RGB HE1224 brings highly anticipated RGB illumination while still providing the ultimate blend of compact dimensions, high efficiency and price. In other words, the versatility that Fera users praised so much. Illumination system lights up the fan and the top plate with stunning yet discreet colours and effects. Supporting all major motherboard RGB systems such as Asus Aura as well as manual control via included Nano RGB controller the Fera RGB is a ready-to-go RGB solution on a budget.” – SilentiumPC

Exterior Packaging

In terms of the packaging, SilentiumPC has gone for a nice clean, crisp style of presentation. You’re not flooded with information, but what is there is bold and strong. On the front of the packaging, you will note that particularly. Other than an image of the product and it’s name, the only other factor of note is the prominent ‘RGB’ branding.

It’s a small touch as well, but I do like how SilentiumPC has carried the image of the cooler onto the other side of the box. This means you get a nice, full and clear image of the entire cooler rather than just that seem on the front.

The rear of the packaging contains all of the products key features. These are, again, nice and clear to read with a good colour choice making it very easy on the eye.

Finally, the side of the box contains all of the technical details. It is a little unusual to see this in 2 languages, particularly since a 2nd language (other than English) is found nowhere else on the packaging. The way in which this information has been laid out isn’t entirely easy to understand unless you’re paying close attention which is unlikely everything else on the box work.
