I did a little load testing of a single Swiftech 220 radiator.
SYS specs are.
Q66@3.6ghz. Actual voltage in BIOS is 1.4
8800gtx@Core 605mhz,shaders@1413mhz,memory@924mhz.
A mild overclock for this card.
A single ST 220 rad with a D-tek fuzion V-2 and X-38 NB cooler i put on
my X-48 rampage. Along with a ST mcw-60 for the 8800gtx.
A laing 3.1 pump i soldered to a 3.2 with a XSPC res. top and 3/8
tubing. In a coolermaster 690 case.
Ive had this set-up for about a year. Though its had anywhere from a single 220 to a single TC 320 to a 220 ST and 320 TC along with a TC 320 and
ST 220 together, but now i am using just a ST 220 rad only.
I know Martin (along with most here) likes detailed readings and measurements. So i did the best i could with what i have.
This is with Prime95 running for around 30 minutes, along with
F@H,s GPU client.
Ambients are,
You can see the Flukes temp probe just to the left of my hand.
The wire poking in the rad just above my memory sticks is a thermal sensor for my Scythe Kaze fan controller.
The fans up top are running at 1200 rpms according the Scythe fan controller.
Here is my Fluke meter measuring the output air from the top of the rad.
The Scythe is reading 35.7c, (within 2 tenths of a degree of what my
Fluke meter reports) the left reading below 1140 rpms
My question is, I see alot of people saying a 220 rad cant handle
a Core i7 CPU alone.
I just cant see how a Q66 kentsfield along with a NB and 8800gtx pumps out
more heat![]()
