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 150w
heat load applied by the intel lga115x/775 version of frostytech's synthetic thermal test platform, the Noctua NH-D9L
heatsink maintains a good temperature result of 23.1°C over ambient, with
43.2dBA noise output. On the 85W heat load, the NH-D9L cooler yields a
temperature result of 14.2°C over ambient with its 92mm fan spinning at 2000RPM.
Adding a second NF-A9 fan to the front aluminum
fan stack decreased test temperatures to 19.6°C over ambient in the 150W test,
and 11.6°C over ambient in the 85W test. With two Noctua NF-A9 fans running
push-pull, noise output rises to a not particularly loud
47.8dBA.
Narrowing
the field of +350 Intel heatsinks down to sub-115mm tall CPU coolers only, the
3U-size Noctua NH-D9L is about 12th best in this particular heatsink reference
chart, or 5.7°C off the much louder Silverstone NT06-P. The Noctua NH-C12P and NH-L12 heatsinks fall in just behind the NH-D9L with both fans
mounted.
The 200W
Intel socket LGA2011 thermal test results are next.
