| HL Cooler Testing and Methodology Quote:
At HardwareLogic we strive to keep our reviews fair, unbiased and accurate. When it comes to the cooling arena, there are several areas of consideration;Case fans, fan controllers, video card coolers, and CPU coolers are among the main items that come to mind. While every aspect of cooling is very important, we feel that the CPU is the most critical component of concern when it comes to cooling. Few will intelligently argue against that. In an effort to bring even more accurate results to our readers, we decided it was time for an upgrade to our cooling test bench.
The HardwareLogic Review Philosophy page does an excellent job of explaining how and why we strive to keep our reviews fair and unbiased. It also covers some of our methodology for other types of reviews. Last year we upgraded the HardwareLogic PSU test bench. As can be seen in our PSU Testing Methods and Methodology pages, we strive to continually improve our working environment, equipment and methods. More recently we moved forward with an upgrade to our CPU Cooling test bench.
