Raw thermal performances(o/c@FULL)
This page is dedicated to pure raw thermal performances. The configuration, which dispels the most heat, is included to show the gap from one product to another. The Overclocked configuration features the following characteristics: 3760MHz (235x16) with 0.15 V of additional Vcore (1.51 V.). The FULL is generated by a 20 minute BurnP6 session.
Just like with previous graphs, the list is selected at 12V and the lowest is the best.

The leader in the classification isn’t surprising. Heat pipe products take first place. Except for the star Ice (the exception), the best ones feature coolers with wide fans. Star Ice’s first place, despite its modest 80-mm fan, is due to the high rotation speed that leads to high performances and airflow (but also to a very high noise level).
It is quite clear from this table that the classification would have been different with another voltage. That is due to the differences between the various fans tested here: some have linear functioning; others are big with low rotation speed, etc.
