Testing
My Radeon 9200 does not have a built-in heat probe, but I did have a heat probe with me at the time which I could get a general reading from. The card uses only passive cooling that means that its silent, but doesn't really push any boundaries as far as overclocking is concerned.
Once the unit was installed, I ran 3Dmark05 excessively (30min). I then took the temperature. I then did some overclocking, and ran 3Dmark again.
The full results are below (250mhz/165mhz):
| Temperature | |
| No extra cooling | 54°C |
| With Storm 2 (low) | 53°C |
| With Storm 2 (high) | 51°C |
And once again with a slight overclock (300mhz/197mhz):
| Temperature | |
| No extra cooling | 68°C |
| With Storm 2 (low) | 64°C |
| With Storm 2 (high) | 63°C |
My max overclock was slightly higher than before
| Core Clock / MHZ | |
| Stock - Max OC | 250 |
| Jetart VC1000 - Max OC | 313 |
At maximum power, the Jetart Storm 2 doesn't make a horrendous amount of noise and its quite reasonable, considering as it does lower the temperature of the GPU by a fair bit.
