Here is the pictures and results.

Overall view.

I am running e6300 @ 3.15ghz. I am using 2 x 70cfm fan but using fan controller running at lowest speed. Assuming it is around 40cfm each fan?

I am using TAT to monitor the temp. I don't have any aircon.
Idle temp is at 47c
Orthos full load is at 58c

Wheeeeeeeeee. Just got myself the Fujin today. I will compare it to the temps of my current TR XP120 in a controlled environment with aircond set at a specific temp to make sure ambient temps r equal for both HSF.

can compare without air cond result...??

it is difficult for others to compare it at actual run time...

Using aircond is the only way to make sure I can test both the HSF at constant 25C room temps. The aircond will maintain constant room temps mar. If u use only normal room temps the natural air temps cud haf fluctuated by 2-3C depending on what time of day u do the tests. If I set my AC to run 25C it will be 25C in my room at all times of the day.

Anyway, ambient room temps wont matter much coz my purpose is to c how the fujin compares to the TR XP120. What matters is to compare the load temp of both HSF n c the temp diff. Let's say the fujin beats the XP120 by 5C at room temps of 25C. Then the same shud apply at 32C room temp.

I'm hoping that the Fujin beats by XP120 by at least 5C n also cool down my RAMs n mobo heatpipes more. Let's c what happens when I start installing everything. *fingers crossed*

I do not know why my idle temp was always higher.. before that I was on the stock heatsink.. the idle temp was around 55c and load temp around 68c. Reseated the heatsink a few times still same result. I need additional fan for the north bridge in the previous settings.

I am very happy with this cooler as it cools the ram and north bridge. without extra fan. It depends on your setup actually. It is possible to have a silent solution while it cools the system resonably well.

One more thing if I run the fan at full speed there will be another ~3c drop in the load temp.

sweat.gif Yep huge hsf.. and I have to sacrifice one mobo screw, there is no way for me to ever put that in already as the hsf blocks the access. For bigger casing it shouldn pose any issue. actually it is not as cheap as you think. The hsf cost around rm145 without fan. Say you add 2x cooler master 40cfm fan. That will cost rm50, total cost will be rm195. Not so cheap anymore.

oh yea, just to inform that i did turn off my C1E thus resulting higher idle temp.

if i turn it on, i can achieve idle of 35c. ( around 266 x 6/7 = 1.6ghz/1.83ghz ? forgot lol )

Oh yea, i'm having a B conroe as well, not sure whether is the link posted below true or not. sweat.gif

@ianho

you have ur point there then ... however not everyone stay in air cond room ..

so it would be hard for others to take ur result as reference ..of course they could do the math as well by adding the ambient difference....

i wonder how it would looks like in ur case thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

hmm, im sorry to say this, but your temp is looks too good to be true. wink.gif
this is based on wat i observed so far in the [Air Cooling Thread] with the reference from most of the major brand hsf and the cpu that they used.

somehow i feel the result that sup3rfly posted on the TR 120 is more accurate

no offence here btw tongue.gif not looking for a fight.

why not, previously it was even better before i got the 8800GTS

Idle: 33
Load: 42

Beside i am using stock clock ... no OC... while she OC the E6700 that should be hotter than mine in default...

somehow my load temperature may not be the top yet ... need something more stressful i guess..

using aircond room is to c actual performance of the hsf going to b tested... it's not as reference of wat temp u should get but more like wat each tested hsf will result.. how much is dat moderno?? i have a couple of 12cm fans lying around.. hehehe...

ianho... quick do ur little review leh... seems fun to ge this cooler...

depends on ur weight of your 12cm fan. normal 12cm plastic fan shouldn pose any problem. I have just change the fan to 1x panaflo 38mm and 1x 12cm regular fan. seems to be quite balance so far.

wah, u guys keep on dicussing bout the same thing over and over again bout the weight.
yes, almost every mobo can tahan the weight. except for those m-ATX and ITX boards and such. smile.gif
