Silencing the monster!
Yesterday we saw the rear of the new chassis (still no name!)
Today we’ll take a sneak preview of the effective cooling system deployed on the product.
Of course, being a Tranquil PC product, it’s going to be fan less, and it is.
By utilising a special anodised surface, lots of mm2 of surface area (>300,000) and a very efficient internal CPU thermal contact, we can reveal that the product will happily cool an i3-2100T or i5-2390T CPU, even in a long term 100% CPU load test! Typically the CPUs (internal sensor) reports approx 11-12’C above ambient whilst idle, rising to 38-40’C (max) above ambient after 45-60 minutes of 100% loading!
Additionally this sample unit has an mSATA internal 80GB HDD. The HDD plugs directly into the main board, and being solid state is again silent.
The result, a very quiet, very reliable, rather nice system – that is not quiet, it’s SILENT.
Super Quiet
