Dual Fan Performance Results




Obviously the H70 does not like slow fans. This is to be expected once again due to the thickness of the radiator used on this cooler.


Apples to Apples Performance


You asked for it so we are going to give it you: all water based CPU cooling solutions set up to run as exhaust only! To our way of thinking this is the only sensible way to install water based cooler so lets level the playing field, turn the heat up and see what shakes loose!



As you can see the H70 does suffer a tad of “performance anxiety” when set up to exhaust all that hot air out of the case. This is due to the fact that it is sucking in warmer than ambient air from within your case instead of the cooler air from outside. Of course, with that being said nearly 2°C is not that steep a price to pay for kick performance that doesn’t char broil your kit.
