Thasp Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I haven't found a lot. I think the enzotech is the first air cooler that can whip the tuniq, but I can't find any definitive benchmark comparisons on any forums, or "official" reviews. If anyone has any, I'd love to see.

Praz Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 OPB has done some preliminary testing with the Enzotech. It beats the Tuniq by a couple of degrees. But it seems the Noctua NH-U12F does an average of 1c better then the Enzotech. http://www.ocxtreme.org/forumenus/showthread.php?t=737 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praz Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 I was afraid of that. I'll get a hold of Kev and see about getting it posted here . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobNyc Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 I doubt it that cooler beats the Tuniq in cooling.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Septem Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 I doubt it that cooler beats the Tuniq in cooling.. But it would seem to. It's not too far-fetched because the reason it cools so well is because it has much larger heat pipes. The Tuniq could have eight times more fins and it wouldn't make much difference because it's limited by how fast it can transfer heat from the base to those fins.

Praz Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 Kevin ran dual SuperPi 32M, 3D01 Lobby high and unpacked a 3.8GB Winrar file. Ambient temps were kept at 24.4. Below are the average results. As with most high end heatsinks the difference isn't great. It would make no sense for someone owning one of these to purchase either of the other two. Enzotech Ultra-X - 40.4 Noctua NH-U12F - 39.4 Tuniq Tower 120 - 41.8 Using google, it isn't difficult to determine that Kevin has extensive experience with consistent heatsink installation and ambient temperature control and has the necessary equipment to provide reliable measurements. Unlike review sites, thee was no hidden agenda for posting these results. There is no need to post favorable results to keep a manufacturer happy or to increase hits. As Thasp has already noted, approved registration is required and even then most areas of the site are closed to viewing. These results were posted to be shared among friends, nothing more. So there is no reason for the results to be skewed one way or the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might all beat it, but the price/perfomance should be kept in mind Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praz Posted May 7, 2007 Posted May 7, 2007 The Tuniq has served me well since it was first introduced. Like anything else in life, the only guarantee there is while being #1 is that it only lasts for a finite time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
