Corsair SP140 RGB Elite vs Enermax T.B.Silence PWM: Comparison

Corsair SP140 RGB Elite vs Enermax T.B.Silence PWM airflow compared

Expect a near tie. The closest thing to a difference is airflow, Corsair SP140 RGB Elite 68.1 CFM against Enermax T.B.Silence PWM 71.25 CFM. Max speed runs the same way, 1200 RPM on the Corsair SP140 RGB Elite versus 1500 RPM on the Enermax T.B.Silence PWM, another win for Enermax T.B.Silence PWM. There is a split on lighting as well, RGB on the Corsair SP140 RGB Elite versus No RGB on the Enermax T.B.Silence PWM. There is a split on rgb lighting as well, Yes on the Corsair SP140 RGB Elite versus No on the Enermax T.B.Silence PWM.

Corsair SP140 RGB Elite vs Enermax T.B.Silence PWM: which one fits your build

Buy the Corsair SP140 RGB Elite for 140mm radiators needing moderate static pressure and budget RGB builds filling multiple large mounts, though it is not built for builders chasing the lowest possible noise floor and high-restriction radiators needing max pressure. The Enermax T.B.Silence PWM is the one to take for silent, high-airflow builds and budget-conscious quiet builds, though it is not the pick for RGB-focused builds and high static pressure radiator duty. Our rating of the Corsair SP140 RGB Elite (7/10): A capable mid-range 140mm RGB fan, though the pricier ML140 PRO RGB or quieter Light Wings both outclass it in their own way. Our rating of the Enermax T.B.Silence PWM (8/10): an excellent value pick for anyone who wants Noctua-like quiet airflow without the Noctua price tag.

Where the two are identical

The common ground is wider than the gap: connector type, fan thickness, pack quantity, pwm control and positioning are identical here.
