Scythe Mugen 4 CPU Cooler Review

 

Testing and Results

 Once the you Installed the Mugen 4 what do you do next? … Of course you test him out!

 

On-Intel-1155 01

 

Test System:

  • MSI Z87 G45
  • Intel Core I5 4670K
  • 8GB corsair Vengeance Pro 1600Mhz
  • Corsair AX860w Power Supply

 

 

Testing methodology

First I used my own cooler for a comparison (H100i): Then I tested the coolers on stock settings on my I5 4670K. For the Idle temp I, just read the temperatures of the program Realtemp. Then for the Load i used Prime95 for ten minutes and read the temps. After that i Switched coolers to the Mugen 4 and did the same things.

 STOCK SETTINGS

 

stock

Ofcourse my H100i is the best, But its A dual radiator watercooler. The mugen 4 does preform very well with 7 degrees higher then my H100i and 8 degrees higher on load is absolutly not bad. The scythe Ashur is just a bit better then the Mugen 4 with only 2 degrees 

 

 

4.4 GHz OVERCLOCK

 

 

4.4

After that I overclocked My CPU to 4.4GHz with a voltage of 1.140. and did same test with my H100i and Mugen 4, with just opening RealTemp and writing down temperatures for Idle and ten minutes with Prime95 for load.

Here we see the same senario, the H100i on top followed by the Ashura and then the Mugen with again 2 degrees how big is that chance. with 70 degrees on 4.4 GHz and 10 minutes on Prime95 its a really good cooler
