Inside the MasterBox TD500 we have a push-pull configuration using a total of four 120mm fans three are located at the front as intakes and one is located at the rear as an exhaust. This type of arrangement usually yields great results.
To discover the thermal performance of TD500 we will record idle temperatures after 20 minutes from a cold boot. We will then stress the system and temperatures will again be monitored after 30 minutes have elapsed.
NOTE: Ambient temperature is 20C

NOISE
Since we have four cooling fans included with TD500 and the mere fact that the panels are thin with exposed mesh at the top, noise does leak rather easily. This case definitely isnt designed to be quiet/silent.
