SilentiumPC Intros Navis Pro Series AIO Liquid CPU Coolers
SilentiumPC today introduced the Navis Pro series all-in-one, closed-loop liquid CPU coolers. These coolers are available in two models based on radiator size, the Navis Pro 120 (120 mm x 120 mm radiator), and the Navis Pro 240 (240 mm x 120 mm radiator). What sets this cooler apart is a unique 9-pole pump motor that keeps the noise output of the pump-block under 15 dBA at all times.
The included Sigma HPE fans come with fluid-dynamic bearings for high endurance, and spin between 800 to 2,300 RPM, pushing up to 74 CFM of air, with a noise output as low as 22 dBA, each. The pump-block has a rated MTBF of 80,000 hours. Most common CPU socket types are supported, including AM4, AM3(+), FM2(+), LGA2066, LGA2011(v3), and LGA115x. Backed by 5-year warranties, the Navis Pro 120 is priced at 55€, and the Navis Pro 240 at 75€.

but....
but...... it has NO rgb lighting, therefore it is TOTALLY friggin worthless :cry:
and yes.
I am being sarcastic, for those who can't tell....
Most of the time, you get what you pay for, so it remains to be seen where & how & why they can sell these so much less than the corsairs and krakens etc that we all know and love.... they have to be cutting some corners somewhere to get to those low price points... or else they've suddenly discovered some new manufacturing technique that dramatically reduces their R&D and production costs....
Perhaps a TPU review is in order to answer these questions, yes ?
All that said, this could be a new pump design if the <15dB claim is true, but I'm thinking nah.

I would not hold out expecting innovation in this market in North America (at least until the Asetek patent expires)
(Eg if you want a 360mm radiator go with Fractal or Thermaltake, but the performance difference is negligible given that they all use the same weak/underwhelming pump)
Third edit: If this SilentiumPC CLC uses a non-Asetek/Cool-It pump do not expect availability in NA
I am not sure what $60, 240mm CLC you are referring to, but I assume that it is an older model.
But, yes, CM/whoever their OEM is are the exception to Asetek's rule.
