(A) Ambient: [Room Temp]
3 = Over 24c
2 = 22c to 24c
1 = Under 22c
(B) CPU Cooler:
3 = Stock or low-end
2 = Mid-range
1 = High-end
(C) Computer Case Cooling:
3 = Needs improvement
2 = Fair
1 = Excellent
(D) Frequency:
3 = Heavy OC
2 = Moderate OC
1 = Stock or light OC
(E) Graphics Cooling:
3 = Recirculate - dual cards
2 = Recirculate - single card
1 = Rear exhaust - single card / SLI / CrossFire
(F) Hard Drives:
3 = 4 or More
2 = 2 or 3
1 = 1
(G) Vcore: 65nm processors
3 = Over 1.425
2 = 1.35 to 1.425
1 = Under 1.35
(OR)
(G) Vcore: 45nm processors
3 = Over 1.30
2 = 1.225 to 1.30
1 = Under 1.225
Total: (Example System)
(A) = 2
(B) = 2
(C) = 1
(D) = 3
(E) = 1
(F) = 2
(G) = 3
Heat Score = 14
Scale:
17 - 21 = Hot
12 - 16 = Warm
7 - 11 = Safe
