We went to J&N Computer Services to see just how well the Eisbaer 240 would hold up under pressure. In the video above you can see Joe and Colin test the Eisbaer's cooling potential against a popular air cooler. Both cooling systems were installed and tested on the same motherboard and CPU to avoid conflicting data. We measured the CPU temperature with each of the cooling systems at idle as well as under load. Thanks to Colin and JNCS, we were able to get some pretty interesting results about the Eisbaer's aptitude for cooling.
