Name: TG5 RGB Silent PCGH Edition
Brand: Sharkoon

The TG5 RGB Silent PCGH Edition doesn’t only know how to show off with appearances, but it also makes an impression due to its pleasant quietness. Through another cooperation with PC Games Hardware, the PC case has been newly designed in order to operate as quietly as possible. The case has the impressive looks of the its predecessor, but the noise levels have been distinctly reduced thanks to damping mats on the side panel and top panel as well as special fans. Full performance during full quietness make the TG5 RGB Silent a perfect case for undisturbed gaming.

Quietness is Strength

The TG5 RGB Silent is the result of a redesign, in which the focus has been on minimal noise volume. The interior of the case is equipped with insulation. This, together with covers, which are now the completely closed, considerably contributes to the reduction of noise levels. At the same time, special fans are deployed within the case which produce a good airflow and rotate at a purposely quite 800 RPM. Despite their new features, the fans’ simplified mounting and installation possibilities remain as before. The side and front panels can be simply and easily removed, allowing the uncomplicated installation of the hardware components.

Illuminated RGB Front

The TG5 RGB Silent still catches the eye with its incomparably radiant looks. The surface of the front panel is almost entirely illuminated from behind by three addressable RGB LED fans. Another fan is pre-installed on the rear panel, casting light into the interior of the case. The LEDs can be precisely controlled and illuminated as desired via the software of compatible mainboards which have a pinout of 5V-D-coded-G or 5V-D-G. If the mainboard does not have this connection, there is still a range of twenty lighting effects which can be operated with a manual control. Using a button above the front of the case, these lighting effects can be conveniently selected.

Full View

With the TG5 RGB Silent, it doesn’t only make a difference what the ears hear, but also what the eyes see. While the glass front panel lets the illuminated fans shine through, the tempered glass side panel presents a view of the installed hardware. So that nothing spoils the good looks, there are no screws visible on the side panel. The panel is simply rested on the side frame and is then attached via two screws at the back the case.

Space for Hardware

High-performance hardware will find enough room inside the TG5 RGB Silent. Graphics cards with 40 cm length, CPU coolers with a height of up to 16.7 cm and power supplies with a maximum length of 20.5 cm will all be comfortably accommodated within the case. Data storage drives of different sizes will also easily fit in. For three 3.5" HDDs or four 2.5" SSDs, there is more than enough room.

Tidiness Inside

So that the viewer’s attention is fully drawn to the most important components, any distractions inside the TG5 RGB Silent are quickly banished from sight. The power supply and the HDDs and SSDs are easily concealed in the power supply tunnel and behind the mainboard tray. The cabling disappears through the easily accessible cable pass-throughs, ensuring a tidy appearance every time.
