Benchmarking the Various AXP-90's
Finally got around to benchmarking and compiling the results.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and was pleasantly surprised by the results. Checkout the image albums and their captions for more in-depth details.
Information about 47mm air coolers and high TDP chips is pretty scarce so I don't have a lot of references with similar setups to compare my results to. Optimum Tech is a trusted reviewer and the results in my setup ended up being quite a bit better than
his similar (albeit different) tests with the Blackridge.
Note: I am not a professional reviewer so there will be some variance/incomplete data from test to test. Differences (for better or worse) may be due to paste application, even mounting pressure and quality control of each cooler.
Take my results with a grain of salt
