Testing
Test Rig
| Processor | Intel C2D E6750 @ Stock |
| Motherboard | Asus P5K Premium 775 |
| RAM | Corsair XMS2 6400 2GB (2×1GB) |
| HDD | Western Digital SE16 500GB SATA |
| Graphics Card | XFX 7900GS 256MB |
To test the case for its cooling ability, we installed out test hardware and ran it at idle state for 30 minutes and then calculated an average temperature for each piece of hardware. The temperatures were compared to those of our test rig installed in an Antec Sonata 550 Plus with one rear 120mm fan.
Software used to calculate temperatures
- HDD temperature = HD Tune
- CPU temperature = Intel Thermal Analysis Tool
- Motherboard temperature = SiSoftware Sandra (environment monitor)
