Low Speed Fan Performance Results
The V layout to the heatpipes really does work and this is easily the best example of quality design beating brute force. The Frio is a very good CPU cooling solution but it does take a “bigger hammer” approach to cooling whereas the V6 GT is more like a scalpel cutting heat with surgical precision. To be blunt this cooler really is only one of few that we would even entertain thoughts of using in combination with the Noctua NF-P1200 when running at an anemic 900 rpm!
