To test the Cubitek Tattoo Fire we will be using the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T CPU in conjunction with an ASRock Fatal1ty Professional 990FX motherboard. To cool the CPU we will be using a Cooler Master Hyper 612S.
Test System
Chassis: Cubitek Tattoo Fire
Processor: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T
Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty Professional 990FX
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 612S
Memory: 4GB Kingston HyperX Genesis DDR3
Storage: Intel 510 Series 250 GB
Power Supply: NZXT Hale 90 750W
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon 6950
Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
Everest Ultimate Edition
Prime 95
Furmark
For our temperature tests, we used Prime95 and Furmark to load the system for 15 minutes and then recorded the results. We then restarted the system and left it idling at the desktop for 15 minutes before recording the results. The ambient temperature was maintained at 20c for the duration of the tests.
The temperatures recorded are exactly what we would usually expect from this system.
For our noise level tests we replaced the AMD Radeon HD 6790 graphics card with a passively cooled HIS Radeon HD 5550 Silence. We also turned off the CPU fan momentarily so we could be sure that the noise generated was only from the case fans.
While this isn't the quietest case we've ever tested, the noise level is perfectly acceptable.
Thats a really well designed case for the price. never heard of this company
They make good value for money products. our local store stocks their range and last time I spoke with one of the sales guys he said they can’t stock them fast enough to keep up with demand
I actually like the design with the red interior. I can see how a lot of people wouldn’t be very fond of it though.
Seems foolish not including USB3 front panel connectivity at this stage of the game. I’m actually shocked to see the amount of new cases coming out that don’t have USB3 yet.
