2CoolPC cooling system review

Op Tech Extreme is een review online gezet van het 2CoolPC cooling system, een innovatief apparaatje om de airflow in je kast sterk te verbeteren en om beter te koelen. Het apparaatje bleek zijn werk boven verwachting te doen, en de reviewer kon 6 fans verwijderen uit zijn kast door deze erin te plaatsen, met een nog beter resultaat.

Currently in the test system I have three intake fans, two in the front at the bottom and one in the upper part of the case near the drive bays. I also have three exhaust fans, one behind both of my CPU's, one at the top in the back, and one at the top in front by the drive bays. In addition to those fans I also have two fans on each of the CPU's.

(...) Just to clarify I unplugged six fans. I thought I would put the 2coolPC to the test. I then connected the 2coolPC and powered the PC back on. Now I have just the 2coolPC and the four fans on my CPU's (two on each) connected. I ran the PC at idle for 15 minutes and my CPU temp dropped to 35 C and 95 F.

My system temp dropped as well to 33 C 91 F. I was amazed, how can this device take the place of 6 of my fans? So then I ran the 3Dmark2000 benchmark again three time's in a row. To my surprise my CPU temp was now at 40 C 104 F, and my system temp was at 38 C 101 F. That's what it was at idle with all ten fans! I can't explain it but it works.
