Temperature Tests

The massive heatsink array surrounding the Xtreme pays excellent dividends for VR MOS temperature, which is 14°C cooler than the MSI.

And while the CPU temperature is similar to the MSI, the Noctua fan spins at 1,305rpm compared to 1,150rpm for the Gaming Carbon, due to its lower load.
