Output Noise & Fan(s) Speed

Noise output is remarkably low for an AIO. It is in the air-cooling territory.

The higher the RPM in these charts, the better. Arctic’s cooler doesn’t score high RPMs in any of the graphs above.

I really believe that Aris did not get my remark. lol
He die not said what is correct,so he is not wrong.Ahah
I guess he did not realize that in ALL reviews’ charts of “CPU Wattage” category, there is the wording “Avarage Power Consumption – *Lower* is Better”, INSTEAD OF “Avarage Power Consumption – *Higher* is Better”. It is just kind of a typo or whatever. I hope it is fixed. Howsoever, this review is outstanding!
yes indeed it was a typo. Changing all graphs now is huge work, so please bear with it 🙂
Hi, great review as always.
I see on Amazon France the 280 normal at 71€ and 83€ for the rgb.
If you could add on the backlog the newest Thermaltake TOUGHFAN EX12 Pro, i ordered the 3 pack version. Hope it performs as well as the 12 Pro.
Thanks <3 (we need more cat pictures)
“Lower is better” in “Average Watt” chart: why? would not the correct word be “HIGHER is better”?
When the CPU gets more Watts, it means that its cooling is more effective, so for this purpose higher is better.
So the information in the chart title is wrong, right?
it is correct.
I’m confused.
The charts say “lower is better”. Why?
