Benchmarks: Temperature and Noise
Low power consumption bodes well for low temperatures and the Primal GT2 delivers. CPU and GPU temps are well within their limits, and the numbers reaffirm DinoPC's decision not to implement liquid cooling - good ol' air is more than sufficient for a build of this ilk.
The lack of heat is admirable in a small machine, though the low temps do make the audible fans all the more frustrating. The one on the Gigabyte graphics card, for example, spins at almost 2,000RPM when gaming. We'd happily accept slightly higher temperatures in favour of slower, quieter fans.
