The part earns the claim.
Production part
The same revision and hardware the buyer receives.
Repeat fit
At least 10 clean install and remove cycles.
Seal and room
No visible light gap. Non-residue smoke at one named fan setup. No filler.
Safe fan power
Fan, RPM, voltage, current, cable, fuse, and source.
Comparable noise
Background and LAeq at 0.5 m for at least 30 seconds.
Matched load
At least 20 minutes with board, workload, ambient, and power named.
Packed and pictured
Complete box, weight, drop check, and real evidence photos.
Plain status words
No badge without a record.
Research only
No product or fit claim.
Measure first
Starting geometry. Buyer checks required.
Field fit pending
Exact target named. Shop install not recorded.
Verified physical fit
Production part installed on the exact board.
Bench verified
Fit, seal, power, noise, and packing passed.
Thermal result published
Matched conditions and result are public.
Comparable numbers
Same setup or no comparison.
Seal
Exact board unpowered. Power only the named external fan from the recorded fused source. Sweep non-residue test smoke around the outside perimeter from the recorded distance. No flame, powder, aerosol, tape, foam, or adhesive. A clean result shows no observed perimeter leak path. It does not measure airflow, pressure, or cooling.
Noise
Quarkpad records A-weighted LAeq with slow response, background level, meter, app, microphone, calibration note, room, 0.5 m distance, and duration. It is a shop comparison reading, not sound power or lab certification.

Quarkpad compares the same exact board, workload, airflow direction, and power setup. The public result must include ambient, steady temperature, peak temperature, board power, utilization, clocks, and event flags.

No thermal tier is live yet.
The P40-class shroud family and matching fan kit still require measurements. V100 PG500-216 R3 is research only. Quarkpad will not call any route quiet or performance until the matching exact-board test passes.
