Test Procedures
We decided to compare each fan while being used in a dual fan, push-pull configuration on our NZXT Havik 140 CPU cooler. Using the fans on a CPU cooler allows us to observe their ability to provide the necessary airflow to remove the heat extracted from our overclocked CPU. It also allows us to determine whether the fan’s static pressure and maximum RPM are tailored towards it being used as a heatsink/radiator fan or a case fan. To keep noise levels to minimum and to isolate the performance and cooling potential of the fans being tested on the heatsink, we decided to use just the single front intake and rear exhaust fan locations in our NZXT Phantom case which were populated by two quiet 120mm fans from Noctua and NZXT.
