Test Setup
When testing a CPU cooler like this, we have to make sure that we use the same components throughout every test and also, that the ambient room temperature is monitored to make the tests fair and concise. As we try to show you real world testing, all components are at stock figures and are not overclocked.
The components we used are consistant throughout all other reviews we have done.
Our testbed consists of the following:

| Processor (CPU) | AMD Phenom II X6 1100T |
