00:00:00.359 --> 00:00:07.439
all right this is going to be my testing methodology for The Cooler Master notal

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:12.000
Ergo stand I'm going to be running rivet tuner as well as real temp in the

00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:18.039
background and I'm going to run 3D Mark 06 this is on a 7900 GT mobile graphics

00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:23.119
card with a oh man I don't even know what CPU this thing has why don't we

00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:25.160
find that out real quick uh CPU oh it's

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:31.960
a okay it's a core to t7200 at 2 GHz so it's got actually 4

00:00:30.279 --> 00:00:36.000
gigs of RAM but for some reason it only detects 3 gigs and I don't really care

00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:39.879
why um okay so I'm going to go ahead and run 3D Mark and then what I'm going to

00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:44.800
do is I'm going to go back and find out what the maximum recorded temperatures

00:00:41.680 --> 00:00:46.800
were by real temp as well as by

00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:52.079
rivatuner now I'm going to do this at three different settings I'm going to do

00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:54.760
it with the not pal fan at high and uh

00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:58.199
you can adjust that down here right there there's a little slider I don't

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:02.199
know if you can see that at all but I've adjusted it all the way to the maximum

00:01:00.199 --> 00:01:07.840
now and then you can also I'm also going to do it with it at its lowest and then

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:10.640
I'm going to do it sitting on a table

00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:13.560
so here goes I'm not actually going to make you sit through all of this don't

00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:16.479
worry I'm just going to kind of come back and show results

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:24.200
periodically okay I've got my first test result here so running with the fan on

00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:29.200
full blast our maximum CPU temperature was between 54 and 58° depending which

00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:35.079
core you're looking at and the maximum GPU temperature temperature that I found

00:01:31.240 --> 00:01:38.600
was about 55 and 12° so we'll call that

00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:40.040
5 there we go 56° on the GPU so now the

00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:45.399
next one I'm going to do is to turn the fan all the way to the minimum and then

00:01:43.360 --> 00:01:50.399
run the Benchmark again and see how it fares so this is after my run through

00:01:47.600 --> 00:01:56.799
with the fan on low so you can see that my maximum CPU temperature was 55 or 59°

00:01:54.600 --> 00:02:02.280
so quite a bit warmer than last time and then my maximum GPU temperature was up

00:02:00.039 --> 00:02:10.000
around the same range so we saw it creep as high as 57 something yeah almost 58°

00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:14.599
on the GPU so we're going to try one more time with the laptop just on the

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:19.040
table and then we're going to see how much better it does without a or well

00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:24.360
rather how much worse it does without a fan so we ran it uh actually what I did

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:28.760
ended up doing was putting it on the box which you can see would be pretty

00:02:25.920 --> 00:02:32.680
similar to how a uh table would cover the bottom of the laptop

00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:36.280
and uh checking the high and low temperatures so you can see the CPU

00:02:34.160 --> 00:02:41.800
temperatures are just a touch higher at 59 and 55 and then the GPU temperatures

00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:45.560
are actually very similar uh only about a degree higher so it looks like this

00:02:43.480 --> 00:02:51.480
notebook cooling pad is only really useful when you're using it with uh the

00:02:49.239 --> 00:02:54.400
fan turned up probably to like a medium to high speed and then it actually makes

00:02:53.120 --> 00:03:00.080
a substantial difference I'm actually going to do one more test and I'm going to run it just on the bare carpet

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:06.319
because so many people run their laptop on carpet as well as on uh flat surfaces

00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:10.879
the way that they're supposed to so we'll try one more test and we're going

00:03:08.239 --> 00:03:15.959
to see how it fares when it has like an insulating layer of carpet under it so

00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:20.319
with it running on the carpet actually I left it for a while but uh I can just

00:03:18.720 --> 00:03:26.400
make out that little hump there we saw it go as high as 69 plus degrees on the

00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:29.280
GPU oh please Focus come on camera you

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:34.159
can do it oh you missed it a I left it for so long anyway okay yeah 69 there

00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:39.560
there 69° and then on the CPU we saw it go as high as 62 and 67° so clearly

00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:46.439
carpet is the worst out of everything we tested and the notebook cooling pad the

00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:47.360
note palet Ergo stand is the best on its

00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:52.439
high speed thank you for checking out my

00:03:49.920 --> 00:03:56.239
unboxing well no this wasn't an unboxing this was more of a performance test look

00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:59.879
at that I actually did a review of something for a change thank you and I

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:04.599
hope you enjoyed it and don't forget to subscribe to my Linus Tech tips video
