The X1000 puts in an impressive turn when it comes to cooling performance, with good figures right across the board. Idle temperatures are excellent at even the lowest fan speed setting of 800RPM and CPU load temperatures are also very pleasing with a delta T of 24°C at 1,200RPM and just 1°C warmer with the fans switched down to 800RPM.

It’s GPU cooling where the X1000 excels though, thanks to the close proximity of those twin 140mm intake fans in the central compartment. This excellent airflow leads to GPU delta Ts of just 34°C with the fans at full speed, and a very respectable showing of 40°C when dialled down to 800RPM.

While these temperatures are still some way off those possible when using a super high airflow case like the Antec 902 or Cooler Master HAF, the X1000 delivers a fantastic blend of cooling and quietness without the need for a side fan into the mix. At 1,200RPM the X1000’s fans are on par with the Antec’s lowest speed setting and at 800RPM are practically inaudible, even in a very quiet environment. While a completely silent case is almost impossible to achieve without some seriously innovative modding, the X1000 is certainly one of the quietest we’ve yet to encounter, a fact that makes it’s cooling performance even more impressive.
