How sensitive is Ninja 5 heatsink to airflow changes?

Cooling the MOSFET-s

The original fans are quite slow, so it was especially fascinating to watch how the heatsink behaved with settings that are not intended for it – with a proper airflow through the ribs. Not only with both fans, but also with just one. Some results really surprised us. And the temperatures in the passive mode are very interesting too, one of the reasons why Ninja coolers have such a good reputation.

What would be the results of standard motherboard tests if we used the MSI MAG CoreLiquid I360 cooler with them? Better. Specifically, lower temperatures would be achieved for the CPU cores, which would then run at higher clock speeds, which naturally means higher computing performance. Not dramatically, but if we are to illustrate the situation with plates of scales, their position is quite clear. Read more “Test: MSI Z890 Ace (and CU9 285K) with CoreLiquid I360 cooler” »

Endorfy Fortis 5 Black ARGB: (Quite) a bit of light in the dark

With the Fortis 5 Black ARGB cooler, it’s not enough to just note that it has a backlit fan compared to the Fortis 5 Black. There are more specifics that shape its characteristics. It’s not visible on the external features, because the stated parameters are the same as those of the non-ARGB model, but we’ve come across a few differences when dissecting the results. And we can certainly write about remarkable differences that are worth reflecting on. Read more “Endorfy Fortis 5 Black ARGB: (Quite) a bit of light in the dark” »

In addition to the standard variant, the Fortis 5 is also available in a completely black version. Compared to the lower-end series (Fera 5), it has two more heatpipes which increase the cooling performance of this cooler. In practice, however, it only does better in some cases. When the processor can benefit from the “extra material” available in the Fortis 5 cooler. How so? We’ll break everything down in this detailed analysis.

  2. This test is hard to read. Why are some graphs empty? What is @24V? Is it 2x 12V or do you actually put 24V through the fans?

    1. Sorry for late reply. Passive cooling mean that heatsink haven’t a fan on its ribs but the system cooling is active.
