The Vortex is a large radiator with great quality fans and a great quality pump, and that is certainly reflected in the performance. It delivered decent temperatures of 76c under full load on our extremely demanding i9 processor and excellent idle temperatures of just 21c.
Using our optimised settings, with fixed boost clocks and lower voltages, I managed to get even better performance from the CPU, with lower temperatures of just 68c at load, putting it firmly on par with the best of the best.
The acoustics are fantastic, with just 33 dBa at idle, it’s virtually silent, and when at full load it’s barely more than the sound of a breeze at just 38 dBa.
Using our optimised settings the acoustic performance was the same, which is great, honestly, it’s easily one of the quietest coolers on our charts, so big thumbs up to Antec.
