Default TRUE vs. Noctua NH-U12P vs. Xigmatek Dark Knight review

RESULTS
CPU settings for testing:
Q6600 @ 3703 MHz 1.36 vcore(CPU is lapped)
Testing will be run for 15 min. Prime95 small FFTs.
20C Ambient temperature. CPU temps recorded with Core Temp 0.99.4 (100C TJmax)
IC7 diamond TIM.

Testing completed.

COMPLETED TESTS

--Lapped/Pressure modded cooler results. Temperature in C.
TRUE wins again, but the margin is closer. The Noctua really benefited from being lapped.



--Unlapped coolers with San Ace 1011, and noctua fan. Temperature in C.
TRUE still leads by a bunch, no matter if it's a high CFM or low CFM fan. Xig and Noctua are about equal on low CFM fan, with the Xig pulling away a bit with a high CFM fan.

--Out Of Box Testing Temperatures in C
Well...I didn't see this coming. The TRUE smokes them..not even close.
















Unboxing Pics









The CPU Coolers:

1) TRUE <<<Thanks to beret9987!
2) Noctua NH-U12P
3) Xigmatek Dark Knight <<<Thanks to redalert!

The Fans:

1) Noctua NF-P12-1300
2) Yate Loon (High Speed) <<<Thanks to Valicious!
3) San Ace 1011

TIM:
IC7 Diamond

This is what i was thinking. One person says this, another says that. There's information saying both are better than the other, but yet no site does a "proper" review in my eyes.

yeah some review website did this they did out of the box testing with the V8, TRUE, nh12p sse 1366 and a few others (fresh out of the box only) but not as in-depth as what your asking for, i might be able to find it.

EDIT: found 1 review http://www.overclock.net/hardware-ne...i7-cooler.html again, not exactly what your looking for
