To test out the Ultra ChillTec Cooler, we ran it on our Intel Core 2 Duo test platform which was then run at default and overclocked settings. Each temperature reading was obtained by using Core Temp 0.95 after leaving idle for one hour. Load times were obtained by leaving the processor at load for 2 hours. We used two profiles to test the Ultra ChillTec Cooler. The room temperature was kept a constant 20C (68F) for all benchmarking.
