Ok here are my results testing the Maze 4 vs the Maze 3.
System Info:
Asus A7N8X Deluxe 2.0 using latest 1005 bios update
2 x 512 Kingston DDR 3200 RAM
Gainward GeForceFX 5900 Ultra 256 mb card
Sound Blaster Audigy 2
Hydor L30 pump
Black Ice Extreme Radiator
1/2" Tygon tubing
Distilled Water/HyperLube mix about 40 to 1 ratio.
Room temp varied a little here between 23C and 25C.
Anything else I need to put in here? This is my 1st time doing this so still new to the ropes.
Rebuilt the system 3 times for clarity for each block and here are the results so far. Temperature is recorded using a thermacoupler, but not quite sure if it is correct or not. Will also post the Asus Probe temps as well so you can see the differences.
Maze 3
1- Idle = 27C, Load using CPU Burn for 1 hour = 35C
2- Idle = 27C, Load using CPU Burn for 1 hour = 34C
3- Idle = 26C, Load using CPU Burn for 1 hour = 34C
Asus temp readings on the above were between 33 and 37...no idea why though....don't even know if it is relevant either.
Maze 4 (Load same as above, tired of typing it)
1- Idle = 29C, Load = 39C
2- Idle = 27C, Load = 38C
3- Idle = 27C, Load = 39C
Asus temps were between 40-44 on loads.
There are still bubbles in the system on all 6 tests because I need to make a resovoir with some sort of bleed tube I think. Still thinking on this one....I am hoping that this will improve the flow and lower temps a little.
Did I do things right?
