Performance of the Scythe Shuriken 3 CPU Cooler
Our CPU cooler test system is made up of the follow components…
Case: Corsair iCUE LINK 3500X RGB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X
Cooling: Scythe Shuriken 3
Motherboard: Gigabyte X870 AORUS Elite WiFi7
Graphics Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 Super Gaming OC
Memory: Crucial Pro Overclocking Edition DDR5-6400 32GB Memory Kit
Storage: Samsung 990 Evo Plus
Power: YEYIAN Pegasus 1000W
For testing we will be using AIDA64’s “CPU Package” reading for temperatures and we will also be using a RisePro sound level meter to record sound levels. Sound levels are recorded 3 inches above the top mesh of the case.
**This is the first CPU cooler that we are testing in this new test rig so we do not have any comparison results.
Idle readings are taken on the Windows 10 desktop an hour after the system has been turned on. Load readings are taken using AIDA64’s system stability test with just the “CPU” selected. Here are the results.
