Testing:
For testing purposes, the case/CPU/HDD temps will be measured at idle and load using SpeedFan v.4.32. Idle temps were recorded 30 minutes after start up, with no programs running (other than start up services/programs). Load temps will be achieved by running the OCCT stress test for one hour and recording the temps from SpeedFan.
Testing Setup:
- AMD Athlon64 Processor 6000+
- ECS A770M-A (BIOS dated 12/17/07, Chipset drivers provided on CD)
- Patriot Extreme Performance 2GB PC2-9200 DDR2-1150MHz
- OCZ Vendetta CPU Cooler
- PowerColor HD2600 PRO (Catalyst 8.1)
- Antec NeoPower 650W
- 1x250GB Maxtor SATA
- 2x400GB Seagate SATA
- Plextor PX-716SA 16X DVD RW SATA
- HL 4164B 16X DVD RW IDE
- Windows XP Professional SP2
- PowerColor Theatre 550 PCIe 1x
- Comparison Case #1 Apevia X-Jupiter Jr case
- Comparison Case #2 Thermaltake Shark Full Tower Case
The X-Supra performs well, but the sheer size of the Thermaltake Shark eeks out a degree here and there against the other mid towers, with its extra airflow.
