- compare different cooling systems and CPU/MB combinations
- have some discussion around subject "speed against temperature"
Competition is divided in 5 groups. Each post with required information will be updated to right group (quote box) of this first post. Information of each group conditions can be found in those result boxes.
Required information:
- ambient temperature during the tests
- CPU idle temperature (hottest core) after having computer on for 2h
- CPU load temperature (hottest core) after 30min 100% stress test for CPU only
- MB/CPU information
- system cooling information

GROUP 2: 10 fastest partially passive systems. Chamber where CPU is located must be passive cooled. Active cooling for PSU is allowed if PSU is located in its own chamber. wrote: [nick] [ambient/idle/30min load temperature (C)] [CPU Zlib result (kB/s]]
