Would this work in my case? Thermaltake corev21 has a cpu fan clearance of 185mm, and the noctua has a height of 158mm. I'm now just worried if the width will touch the RAM, or If I can orientate the fan so its not touching the ram... I've heard nothing but good things about noctua fans, quiet, cool, and ugly.

My case has a cpu fan clearance for 185mm cpu coolers. Is this considered small still?

Fixed!

Yeah I have a small micro ATX build, Thermaltake corev21, so I think I'll just go with an air cooler. Appreciate the help!

So what I've gathered is the general consensus is that a good air cooler is better and cheaper than a 100 dollar AIO. Gonna do some further research, but that looks like the best option for me, considering my budget.

Oh. Why is this? It's always been my impression that AIO was superior. *(haven't done much research as you can tell)

What are the recommended corresponding fan speeds to temperature? Don't want to set it lower than I should or higher than I should. Are air coolers comparable when it comes to noise with AIO coolers?

As the title says, my 3600x sounds like its preparing for take off when I play overwatch, 2700 RPM at 49 c in speedfan, but in bios it said it was at around 60 (obviously not while playing OW) so who really knows. I'm on a bit of a budget, I'd rather not spend more money on this damn box right now. I'm in Vancouver Canada, so everything is more expensive. Can anyone recommend me some solutions / a good AIO that will keep my PC quiet and cooled for a reasonable price (100cad) It's been a while since I've built a pc, so quick question: Is it possible to use older AIO coolers for intel cpu's like i7 4770ks on the 3600X AM4? Because I have a corsair AIO sitting in my old build. Build: Thermaltake corev21 microATX asrock b450m pro4 microATX Ryzen 3600x with stock cooler DDR4 3200mhz Corsair Vengeance LPX C16 GTX 970 STRIX (temporary card, soon to be 1070 in a HOT minute) m.2 500gb

ITX parts especially the super duper small stuff gets expensive fast, and mini itx mobos usually if not always have one PCIe slot (I think) so if you plan on doing anything with wifi card, capture card, etc its not great for that. Thermals are also an issue for some smaller form factor builds.

Thanks! It made me feel so much better LUL

Thanks for all your help Appreciate it.

I will call em tmrw, maybe it can be resurrected by just a super long charging session.

Im gonna plug in in the PC and go for lunch see how it does. Thanks for the advice.

Tried that aswell. No luck Thanks for the help.
