Thermal Performance
During the test the we had ambients of between 13-15c – the case is internally maxed in terms of volume (extra cables, poor cable management) to actually increase the pressure on the components – giving you a slightly higher temperature than if the build was cable managed. The G3258 is benched for up to 30 minutes (Pentium K – Stock voltages) on an NHL9i. Running the stock fans that came with the case unless we feel its required, below you can see the idle and load.
When comparing our delta temperatures we can see the Sugo SG13 does fall a little bit behind with the PSU mounted above the socket, however I don’t think 4c is that much of an issue for the space it saves.
