Inside our 680X we have four cooling fans which are in key locations for a good, push-pull configuration.
To discover the thermal performance of 680X we will record idle temperatures after 20 minutes from a cold boot. We will then stress the system and temperatures will again be monitored after 30 minutes have elapsed.
For the purpose of accurate analysis, the idle and load temperatures for CPU will be recorded and the range between idle and load will be calculated to determine how efficient cooling is.
NOTE: Ambient temperature is 20C

Noise
Attention has been placed on the airflow capabilities with this case and as such, it is possible to hear noise from the chassis due to its nature.
