XSPC RX360 radiator review

[skinnee]

Yup, for 2300RPM and 2800RPM I use Scythe Ultra Kaze (DFS123812H).

HES, what are those graphs in post #28 a measure of? Water Out-Air In delta?

edit:
I gotta say, your charts are much better looking than mine.

Ok, now I feel kinda stupid for not coming up with that myself...

I have some 38mm Yate Loons that I was messing around with. They look almost identical to the Ultra Kaze.

Sorry for not clarifying about the graphs. Those are Water (average in and out)-Ambient delta temperatures.
Same data as in the graphs of the first post, but now with the actual numbers for each rad and fan speed.

Very nice review HESmelaugh.
It's good to see the XSPC performing up to scratch.

"Those are Water (average in and out)-Ambient delta temperatures"

What is that test method? Whats about avarage? I did when testing just mesure temps out that comes cooled water (max that my temp sensor gave) and useing different rads in same room temp and fans you can easy mesure what is the bes rad from the tests, but whats after all after your mesurments???

Thanks for clarifying!

Good testing! Nice to see some comparisons for the work we do. I should have the RX write-up done this evening, I do like how we covered different RPM ranges though.

I need to share with you some of the calculations in Excel that will make some of the number crunching easier.

Looking forward to your writeup on this.
And am also eager to learn from your Excel Skillz.

Bedtime for me now, but I'll check to see if your report is up tomorrow.

Check the first post for a relatively detailed description of my testing methods. I simply average out the temperatures from four separate temperature probes in the water instead of just one. I only do that so that the measuring errors from the sensors get evened out.

And for my testing I use this web site to calculate watage of the CPU, dont know whats the real heat comes out but its warm, at stock load temps is under 50 degrees, now its 69 to 77 depends on fan speed. 2400 Mhz and 1.25v is stock, now its 3800 and 1.56 volts.

And I think one sensor will not fail, no need to use more than one, as you use the same measurement device and temp. sensor to all rads to test water temp so they are comparable
