Comments:
* In factory configuration, the Apogee™ XT showed a 3°C improvement over the Apogee™ GTZ.
* A 1.5 °C improvement was observed compared the best competitive waterblock tested in our lab.
* The temperature degradation between factory inlet configuration and alternate inlet configuration was 0.1°C
(*) Delta T is the difference in temperature between averaged CPU core temperature as reported by RealTemp and averaged air temperature reported by 3 thermal probes located at the
fans inlets.
(**) Alternate inlet configuration is when the inlet is rotated at 180° to allow installation of extra large compression
fittings.
