The Testing:

I decided to make sure I had a stable ambient room temperature. For this, I turned on the Dehumidifier and set the Temperature for 78 F/25.56C.

In order to get an accurate reading of the RAM module temperatures, I used a DMM (Digital Multimeter) that also had a Temperature probe.

With the temperature probe in place at the top of the second RAM module, I was ready to take some readings prior to installing the RAM fan. I let the computer warm up to its normal operating temperatures, and then began to make notes of the results.

Before Ram Fan Installation:

WINDOWS IDLE: 40 – 41C

Wanting to stress the RAM I decided to go with 3DMark 2006 to give the system a good workout:

3DMark 2006: 42 – 44C

With these temperatures well established it was time to install the RAM fan and see what it could do...

After Ram Fan Installation:

WINDOWS IDLE: 33C (Stable)

3DMark 2006: 34 – 36C

In all honesty, I could not believe the RAM fan could make that much of a difference! So, after letting the system warm up for a few more minutes, I ran 3DMark 2006 once again -- with the same results. All I can think of is, “Amazing!” Keep in mind that the overall ambient room temperature was kept the same for all tests.
