Frostytech tests with two thermal values that represent the upper limits of existing Intel CPU families. With a 150W heat load applied by the Intel LGA775 version of FrostyTech's synthetic thermal test platform first, the Thermaltake SpinQ heatsink maintains a very good temperature of 25.7?C over ambient (50.9dBA noise) at full fan speed.
Under similar test conditions and reduced fan speed, the noise output from the SpinQ heatsink levels off at a quiet 41.6 dBA, while temperatures rise just 4?C to 29.8?C.
Thermaltake's SpinQ heatsink was then tested with an 85W heat load; akin to a Core 2 Duo processor. In this test the SpinQ easily maintained a temperature of 15.6?C over ambient at 1600RPM, and 17.4?C with the fan at 1000RPM - a change of just 2?C.
Ultimately, while the Thermaltake SpinQ heatsink is a good heatsink, it isn't able to stand out from the crowd. Better manufacturing control may have influenced the SpinQ's efficiency if all six heatpipes were properly soldered to the base. However, without a reference sample to compare against we cannot say for certain.
In any case, both Intel & AMD thermal test reports position the Thermaltake SpinQ as a good heatsink, but clearly not the coolest nor quietest available.
