SilentiumPC Announces the Corona HP Evo ARGB

btarunr · Apr 3, 2020

Notwithstanding social media pictures of unsold Corona beer crates in supermarkets, sales of Dom's catnip are actually up. SilentiumPC made the bold move of launching a new product with exactly that name, the Corona HP EVO ARGB fans. Scientifically, corona is a layer of luminescent plasma surrounding a normal star, giving it an aura and the appearance of being larger than it is. SilentiumPC announced its first Corona-branded accessories back in 2018 as an RGB upgrade kit for its Sigma Pro fans. Corona became a fan brand unto its own in early 2019. With that out of the way, the new Corona HP EVO ARGB is a new family of fans in 120 mm and 140 mm sizes, which will be sold in single-piece and three-piece packs by SilentiumPC.

Design of the Corona HP EVO ARGB is similar to the Corona HP RGB from mid-2019: round frames with ring-shaped silicone LED diffusers, and opaque black fan impellers. What's changed is support for modern 3-pin ARGB. The single-piece SKUs come with just a 3-pin ARGB connector besides 3-pin DC fan connector (no PWM), but the 3-packs include an ARGB controller that puts out three channels. Both the 120 mm and 140 mm variants feature 50,000-hour rated hydraulic bearings. The 140 mm variant spins at 1,200 RPM, pushing 45 CFM of air. The 120 mm variant does 1,500 RPM, pushing 35 CFM. The company didn't reveal pricing.

If it's having any type of discharge it should see a doctor :oops:

Is it a late april fools joke?

These fans adhere to the new "normal" guidlines....

You have to wipe them down with sanitizer immediately upon receipt AND every time you start up your computer, plus keep them at least 6ft away from you to avoid spreading the virus, hehehehe :roll:

You forgot face mask.
Maybe they could bundle one with the fan...

Wow, a whole 45 CFM for the 140mm.

Why are RGB fans so terrible at being fans?

Their corona series existed way long before pandemic started so... I own a kit of SilentiumPC Sigma HP 120 Corona RGB for about a year now and all i can say fans are really cool and have nothing bad to say about them. They are not loud even at their maximum speeds. What is nice about kit it came with rgb splitter.
