Results
While testing on the cooling performance,the room temperature is around 29 Celsius.For the comparison, we have captured the idle and loading performance for default speed and overclock. The Fanless 330 performed very well during our testing. The overclocked idle temperature for the GeForce 7600GT was only at48 Celsius compare to the stock cooler was at 49 Celsius, and there is only 1 Celsius difference which is pretty great from a passive cooler compare to a fan cooler. As for the overclocked loading temperature, for the stock cooler running the same applications was at 82 Celsius while the Fanless 330 was only at 72 Celsius, which is a very excellent result for the Fanless 330.
