Cooler Master TX3 Review

[flibberdipper]

On my review of the TX3, I have to say that it did well.

 

Before I start, I will say that this was more of an experiment than anything, so there are no pictures. The ambient temperature was 19.5C.

 

It was able to passively cool a Sempron 145 with no problem, and only got minimal incidental airflow from my power supply mounted above. The highest it reached was 48C, using Prime95 for 15 minutes. Then I went on to play Spiral Knights, and got up to 46C. With the fan that was included spinning at a measly 850RPM, my max temp with Prime95 was only 29.5C. In Spiral Knights, it was 28.5C.

 

My only con is that the included fan is loud when it's at 100%.

 

And this is my first review, so don't bash on me for not being the best.

so it got to 48 without fan at prime95, and 46 with fan?

No, 46 was in the game Spiral Knights.

No, 46 was in the game Spiral Knights.

 

so it is:

                      Spiral Knights                          Prime95

with fan                  28.5                                    29.5

without fan             48                                         46

with fan                  28.5                                    29.5

without fan             48                                         46

                     Spiral Knights                          Prime95

with fan                  28.5                                    29.5

without fan             46                                         48
