CONCLUSION
Just like with the Navis RGB 280 the performance of the brand new Navis EVO ARGB 240 may not be something to make it stand out from the sea of AIO models out there but thanks to its new ARGB lighting system it does a very good job in the looks department (even more so if you have a 3-pin RGB compatible mainboard). That being said cooling efficiency although certainly nothing we haven’t seen in the past is certainly not bad either especially if you take into account noise levels which are clearly not as high as some other 240mm AIO models. Of course, it goes without saying that if your PC case can accommodate a 280mm AIO we’d recommend going with the Navis EVO ARGB 280 instead since it should perform roughly the same as the Navis RGB 280 (if not even better).
The Navis EVO ARGB 240 AIO liquid CPU cooler by SilentiumPC currently retails for 84.95Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which puts it right at the center of numerous other 240mm AIO models with similar performance levels (unfortunately SilentiumPC products don’t seem to be available on the other side of the Atlantic, at least not currently). Since ARGB however is still not something many manufacturers have followed through with the Navis EVO ARGB 240 actually offers more in terms of looks and for that it gets our Golden Award.
