Noise Level
The
Cyberpower Infinity Hercules Pro Gaming PC has multiple noise sources, which
include the two 120mm fans on the CPU AIO system in push pull, one top mounted 120mm
fan and the blower on the graphics card. During our 3D tests, the system was
subjectively speaking well audible. We notice that all fans come with three pin
headers. We would love to find models with 4-pin PWM headers, which would allow
for very simple noise level adjustments from within Windows or via the BIOS.
Concerning the top mounted 120 millimeter fan, this one starts spinning when the
temperatures pass 50°C.

With ambient temperatures
at 23°C, we measured reasonable temperatures regarding processor and graphics
card. Using Prime95
64bit and FurMark, HWmonitor Pro is telling us that the CPU runs at about 33°C
in idle and roughly 55°C under load. In the case of the graphics card and
Furmark for stress testing maximum temperature was 68°C.
