AMD temperature/noise ratio
On these perf/noise ratio graphs, we remind you that it’s best to be positioned as far to the bottom left of the graph as possible. For reading purposes, the leftmost point symbolises ventilation at 12V, the one in the centre ventilation at 8V and the rightmost at 5V.
105W consumption :
As we can see, the be quiet! kit promises to be very efficient and offers a very advantageous temperature/noise ratio. In fact, the kit performs better than Corsair’s kit at high and medium speeds, but completely disappears at low speeds. Clearly, it deserves to work faster to compensate for the higher temperatures.
170W consumption:
At 170W consumption, you’ll immediately notice that there’s a bit missing from the curve, which is normal, as the kit didn’t pass the low-speed tests, just like the Liquid Freezer II 240 for that matter. However, when running at 66% and 100%, it proves to be formidable!
