Cooler Master GeminII review

[Rol-Co]

we need c2d results on a p5b-d

i did some tests

x6800 extreme edition
2x coolermaster aquagate mini fans 106 cfm full speed 2700 rpm
asus commando
room temp 21 degrees C

3600mhz 5h orthos 1.45v bios, 59/63 degr coretemp fans at 1000 rpm
3700mhz 1h orthos 1.50v bios, 67/68 degr coretemp fans at 1000 rpm

i don't like this , too much heat so changed fanspeed too 1500 rpm

3700mhz 3h orthos 1.50v bios, 62/63 degr coretemp fans at 1500 rpm
3800mhz 1h orthos 1.55v bios, 67/68 degr coretemp fans at 1500 rpm

to much heat again changed to full speed 2600-2650rpm

3800mhz 3h orthos 1.55v bios, 60/62 degr coretemp fans at full speed
3900mhz 2m orthos 1.60v bios, 70/69 degr coretemp fans at full speed (fail)

lowered room temp from 21/22 degrees too 16/17 degrees

3900mhz 2h orthos 1.60v bios, 62/63 degr coretemp fans at full speed.

end of test, qx6700 next

i can say thats pretty impressive , i have all big aircoolers overhere but never seen it cool like this.

thanks, how much of an improvement over a tuniq? doesnt seem like a much

I would say the additional benefits of it cooling other components on the motherboard would be the plus side to owning it over the Tuniq Tower.

I would like to see a side by side comparison of the Tuniq and Gemini faceing off on a DFI board just wish it would install the other way instead of vertically!
