The NH-C12P cooler sports no less than 6 heat pipes and the acoustically quiet NF-P12 120mm fan.

The end result, we have the memory in place, the CPU cooler mounted. Lovely. Before we take a look at the mainboard, wanna see how the cooler performs? Yeah, I figured you would...

So we get pretty decent results. With Prime95 we stress the CPU cores 100%, which is truly a lot of heat for this processor. At stock speeds the temps settle at roughly 65-70 Degrees C. That's fine for what we want to do today. You can expect idle temperatures of roughly 40-45 degrees C.

Okay then, let's focus our attention on the ASUS P6T Deluxe motherboard. There's a lot to show really.
