For the testing of the BigWater SE, I have been using the latest motherboard temperature monitoring software to record down the CPU temperatures. During the testing of it, the room temperature is around 28 Celsius. The BigWater SE has a wise performance during the Idle and also during the loading. As you can see in the performance table above, The BigWater SE performs well during idle which only at 36 Celsius during the low fan speed from the radiator and 34 Celsius during the high fan speed. As for the loading performance is running Stress Prime 2004 together with 3DMark05 is at 48 Celsius at low fan speed and 45 Celsius at high fan speed.
