Asetek WaterChill Antarctica Water Cooling Kit

Stock Speeds and Temperatures:

Amazingly the WaterChill Antarctica only allowed the CPU temperature to rise 3°C, and that was only 7°C above the ambient temperature!

Overclocked Speeds and Temperatures:

Overclocked the WaterChill Antarctica performed just as well, with the CPU temperature rising only 1°C more than when running at stock speeds under load. Also when the CPU was under load the Antarctica's temperature was still lower than what the retail Intel heatsink ran at idle!

*Note: The CPU was unable to run at 230FSB stable, and had to be backed down to 220FSB (3.52GHz) for testing.

Hard Drive Temperatures:

Hard drive temperatures were recorded after the system had adequate time to warm up. Running a HD benchmark / defrag didn't seem to affect the temperatures significantly. Using the hard drive cooler brought temperatures down about 6°C, and this was with a 7,200 RPM hard drive, with a 10,000 RPM drive I'm sure the difference will be even greater.
