Page 4 - Tests and Conclusion

Tests were done on this computer:

  • GA-EX38-DS4
  • E2140 8x333@1.375V, EIST and C1 turned off, Vdroop calibration turned on
  • PSU Xilence XP450W
  • CPU Cooler Xilence Xilent Blade Pro
  • AS Ceramique thermal paste
Table with temperatures measured during testing
Temperature Intel BOX Xilent Blade Pro
Room temperature 22-23 22-23
Idle 34-35 31-32
Maximal temperature reached 68 56

For the test ОCCT ver. 2.0.0a was used, with settings for maximal processor load for a period of 20 minutes. For measuring the temperatures Real Temp 2.41 was used. All the testing was done outside the case for easier mounting and dismounting. For comparison was used the original box cooler of Е2140.

Conclusion

During the test with the box cooler I noticed, that the temperature of the chipset and the RAM got considerably higher, so aditional fans were needed for them too. With Xilent Blade Pro though, no such problem was present, which is a serious plus along with the much lower processor temperature and the silent work. The only disadvantages i could find were the polishing of the contact surface and the very slight misalignment when mounting, still that in no way prevents it being a good cooler at a good price.
