Temperature behavior
At this point, I was even more excited than when I installed the system. No active intake fans, no active airflow. I wonder if this can work?
Test system:
Finally, the well-known B550 platform with Ryzen 9 3900X was used again as the test system. The RX 7700XT was again used as the graphics card.
CPU | AMD Ryzen 9 3900X PBO on |
CPU cooling | THERMALTAKE TH280 V2 Ultra ARGB |
Mainboard | GIGABYTE B550 Vision D |
Memory | THERMALTAKE Toughram 32GB DDR4 3600 |
Graphics card | SAPPHIRE Radeon RX 7700XT Pure |
SSD | HP FX700 M.2 2TB |
Case fan | THERMALTAKE CT 140 ARGB |
Power supply | SEASONIC Focus Gold 850W |
Other accessories | – |
General conditions:
AIO fan: 800rpm
Case fan: 800rpm
Pump: 2500rpm
Room temperature: 19.9°C
CPU Torture
For the CPU stress test, I again used Cinebench R23 in continuous loop. Over the entire test, 145W was applied, and an allcore boost of ~4050-4100MHz could be maintained (PBO on). The average temperature of the 3900X was 78.5°C, an unexpectedly good result.
Gaming workload
Borderlands 3 was again used for the gaming test, as it practically fully utilizes the graphics card throughout and therefore generates a lot of waste heat. Especially with AIOs mounted in the lid, this has a significant effect on the CPU temperature, as the waste heat from the graphics card is transported outside through the radiator. Obviously, a lot has to be compiled when starting a game, which is why there was a brief rise in temperature to almost 70°C, after which the CPU stabilized in the low 50°C range.
The graphics card was also unexpectedly cool in the View 270. It did not reach the usual target temperature of approx. 60°C over the entire test period, but only Sapphire (or AMD) can explain why the fans still had to run at 1500rpm the whole time.
With a delta of just under 30°C to the GPU temperature, the hot spot was much further away than usual, but still absolutely harmless. At well below 90°C, we were still far from the 105°C specified as “normal”.
Interim conclusion
I was actually quite surprised by the temperatures in the Thermaltake View 270 TG. It’s true that the AIO used has already shown very good performance in other cases, but here the temperatures of the graphics card were also unexpectedly low and that without a single active intake fan! Apparently, the negative pressure from the fans configured as “Exhaust” in conjunction with the extensive perforation of the case surfaces ensures sufficient airflow to effortlessly remove the waste heat from the components used from the case. Of course, we’re not talking about groundbreakingly low temperatures here and you certainly can’t cool a beer with the case in summer either, but the results were better than in many cases with several active intake fans, which I found quite astonishing.
