Page 5 of 6 Testing and Performance Test System Performance Danger Den Maze 4 GPU Water Block | Condition | Stock Cooler | Danger Den Maze4 GPU Water Block | | Idle | 47 C | 43 C | | Load | 65 C | 52 C | I used the WaterChill water cooling kit for the performance testing of this MAZE4 GPU water block. During the testing, the room temperature was around 28 Celsius. As you can see, the cooling performance is definitely visible. I have tested the MAZE4 GPU water block at the idle and loading temperatures. There's a 4 Celsius drop during the idle compared with the stock cooler and it pulled down the temperature to 43 Celsius during idles. While the testing of the loading temperature, I was running 3DMark 05, the full loading temperature was only at 52 Celsius which is much lower compared to the stock cooler which is at 65 Celsius. | | Stock Cooler (Default) | Stock Cooler (Overclock) | Danger Den Maze4 GPU Water Block(Overclock) | | Core | 425 MHz | 475 MHz | 510 MHz | | Memory | 860 MHz | 1050 MHz | 1065 MHz | As for the overclocking result. When using the stock cooler, it does not have any RAM cooling due to the stock cooler was blocking the RAM chips. So, I have added some copper BGA RAM sinks for the RAM cooling for the overclocking test. By using the MAZE4 GPU water block, there is an increment of 35 MHz for the core and 15 MHz for the memory.
