We are testing the Aerocool Dead Silent Gaming Cube's performance as follows:

• Room temperature is kept at 22°C throughout our tests.
• The CPU Fan is set to 100% to eliminate inconsistencies as a result of PWM control.
• Idle temperatures are obtained after booting the PC and idling on the desktop for 30 minutes.
• CPU load temperatures are obtained after running Prime95′s Small FTTs test for 15 minutes.
• GPU load temperatures are obtained after running Furmark’s Burn-In Test for 15 minutes.
• To measure noise levels we disable the CPU fans and GPU fan.
