Moving on to our new 4.1GHz fixed frequency overclocked test, as we have only recently added the new 4.1GHz mid-range cooler test to our suite, we have very limited comparison data at the moment. Do check back on future reviews, as we have quite a few mid-range CPU coolers for test over the coming weeks, so the charts will start to show significantly more comparison data.
As we are locking the voltage and clock speed, the temperature figures are directly comparable between competing coolers. We see package powers in the order of 180-190W for the CPU and wall power levels that exceed 260W for the system.
Note the use of delta temperature data in our charts and factor in your own ambient conditions for reference.
The same impressive cooling performance continues through to our manual OC testing. Here, the dual-120mm Fera 5 is tied for top position with the be quiet! Shadow Rock Slim 2. While the be quiet! cooler is more expensive, the SilentiumPC cooler is louder and does lose around 1C of cooling performance when restricted to 40dBA.
Nevertheless, this is another strong thermal performance from the SilentiumPC Fera 5 Dual.
