FrostyTech Mk.II Synthetic Thermal
Heatsink Test Results - 150W/85W
Intel
Core Extreme / Pentium D & Quad Core class heatsinks tested at
150W head load. Intel Core i5 / Core i3 /
Core 2 Duo / Pentium 4 / Celeron class heatsinks tested at
85W. Results based on readings from a 30x30mm copper
interface die with 150W and 85W heat loads applied on the
LGA1150/1155/1156/775 version of the Mk.II Test Platform.
Temperature results listed for each heatsink were calculated by
determining the rise over ambient temperatures at time of test.
Information on Frostytech's test methodology is available here. |

*heatsinks are ranked according to the 150w thermal
test results column (rise over ambient temp.). low temperatures with low
noise levels are considered best. for reference heatsinks with
variable-speed fans, only the high speed (12v) fan test result is included
in the comparison sheet; more detailed results reside in each specific
heatsink review. |
with a
150w heat load applied by the intel lga115x/775
version of frostytech's synthetic thermal test platform, the Nepton
140XL CPU liquid cooler maintained an excellent result of just 8.2°C over
ambient at stock fan speed. Noise output was a loud 59.6 dBA, however.
Reducing the speed of both 140mm PWM fans from 2000RPM
to 800RPM caused test temperatures to rise to 13.6°C over ambient while noise
output fell to 44.2dBA. The nice thing about thermal solutions equipped with
large 140mm fans is that thermal performance doesn't take much of a hit when the
fans are slowed down. A result of 13.6°C over ambient is quite good, as you can
plainly see.
Next, the Coolermaster Nepton 140XL was tested with an
85W heat load. Under these test conditions the 140mm AIO watercooler yielded a
test temperature of just 4.8°C over ambient at stock fan speed and 7.9°C over
ambient at its reduced fan speed. Excellent results all around!
Next up, the results chart for Frostytech's 200Watt
Intel socket LGA2011 synthetic thermal test platform.
