  • I like the review. Very nice video. What was the song throughout the video that played when you showed the fans and CPU and parts?

  • It is an original song made in garage band.

  • did you have to clean the paste off each time you removed the fans?

  • yes, with a little experience it is much easier.

  • How did you do the 100% load test? Any program used to test it and for how long? I'm gonna buy one of those noctuas very soon.

  • I used Prime95 and ran each load test for 3 hours before reading temps.

  • @Aldind2x mine is at 34 degrees Celsius on idle, and 64 100% cpu load on a i7 960 no oc, in a Silverstone fortress case

    i have used 3 pastes, but makes no difference

    the room temp is upstairs at 22c

    I've tested a small drop of paste, and a full flat coving, still the same

    it might be that some heat sinks are made bad, some are good

  • what were the temps in the room?

  • @mangie222 You only get 1 fan when you buy it, to have another fan you have to supply your own. I have 2 fans on my MUX 120 Black, and didn't see much diffrence between 1 fan and 2.

  • @PrivateCustard thank you 

  • @Celltypewhatkind I'd say yes.

    I have an X6 1055T @ 3.72Ghz and it's only reaching 36 degrees. 4Ghz should be an easy target, especially if you run two NF-P12s, which really doesn't make much difference to the noise. Very very quiet, very very cold.

  • hi is this good enough to cool phenom II X4 @4ghz thank u

  • Great video

  • Haha ... that's  cool name, Trevor. My name is Trevor too, and I'm a techie! :) Cheers, mate!

  • Mine is running at 36 degrees celius on idle. Could I have not installed the thermal paste correctly? I used the line method. Your thoughts?
