Noise Insulaon:
The Nanoxia Deep Silence 3 has been developed with the aim to oer the buyer a low-noise
case, while at the same me allowing for extremely low system temperatures. The sound
insulaon design of the Deep Silence 3 is based on mulple interacng design elements:
The most important part is the large scale lining of the case with sound-absorbing insulaon
materials. These materials are manufactured specically to meet the requirements of the
developers of the Nanoxia Deep Silence case series and act equally against airborne sound and
structure-borne noise.
The removable Nanoxia VentCovers mask the 120/140 mm fan holes in the case top. They
allow the user to choose between the least possible noise and improved case venlaon.
Another design element for opmum sound insulaon is the use of two sound-insulated front
doors. The doors are equipped with sound-absorbing foam. Hard drives and power supply are
also decoupled mounted. The whole concept of sound proong of the Deep Silence 3 meets
the highest expectaons.
Venlaon System:
The Nanoxia Deep Silence 3 has an integrated venlaon system consisng of three 120 mm
Deep Silence fans and a built-in 2-channel fan controller. A total of up to six fans can be mounted.
The Deep Silence axial ow fans have been specically opmised for very quiet operaon. The
range of fan speeds and controls was designed to enable each user to adjust the case
venlaon to their own needs.
