| E4600 Performance Results E4600 Performance ResultsIdle Temperatures ![]() As expected the TRUE Black is not a great performer when it comes to idle temperatures. That thick base takes time to pass on its heat to the heatpipes making the process very inefficient at lower temps. Of course, great idle temps are all well and fine but as we have said in the past it is the average load temps which makes (and breaks) a great CPU cooling solution. Average Load Temperatures ![]() This level of performance here is much better than the idle temperatures it posted. It appears this cooler has been optimized for heavy thermal loads as its really only start to shine when this relatively cool running e4600 is heavily overclocked (and becomes anything but a cool running chip!). | ||
