    Goldman reacted to WoodenMarker in CPU Cooler Performance Tier List   
    You'd be better off getting a beefier cooler to begin with instead. A fan upgrade only improves so much.

    Goldman reacted to WoodenMarker in CPU Cooler Performance Tier List   
    Added to the list - it seems to be similar to or slightly better than the SE-224 XT.
    The 5600x is easily cooled by just about any single tower cooler. The 7800x3d should be fine with decent case airflow. The 5800x3d should be fine under gaming loads, with some tuning, or if you don't mind the fans ramping up. Otherwise, it may be worth getting a slightly beefier cooler for lower noise.

    Any type of benchmark that puts your system under sustained load. Some free ones for the GPU are Unigine Heaven benchmark, and prime 95 for the CPU (I personally like to run back to back runs of Cinebench R20 but that's just me).

    Yeah, sadly. Ended getting a ritoro cr280 (it's kinda like a poor man's define nano s), hopefully at some moment i'll be able to get an sfx PSU with an adaptor so that the GPU can breath(right now it's not a problem as my vega 56 has a blower fan)(i'm saying hopefully, because, again, sfx PSU are non-existent).
     
    Thanks everyone for the help though, might post some photos when the build is done

    Goldman reacted to TVwazhere in Phantex evolv ITX tempered glass airflow choke?   
    This is because the GPU's get put up very close to the surface of the PSU, and Open air cards have two fans, one where the blower an would be but the other is directly over the PSU, trying to pull in air from a relatively small gap. 
     
    An mATX case can fix this issue since the card will be lifted up one or two PCI-e slot lengts from the PSU's surface, giving it a lot more breathing room. Really it comes down to what GPU you're using. I wouldnt worry too much about it for say a 1660ti, but maybe if you had a dual slot 2080 i'd consider it. 
     
    Additionally if your card is a tripple slot, most cases wont be able to support the card. Two cases I know of are the newly release Lian Li TU150 and the Metallic Gear Neo Mini G, both of which have 3 slots for extra thicc cards (though I'd recommend the TU150 since it has direct access to air from the bottom)

    Goldman reacted to SPARTAN VI in AMD Wraith Prism vs Noctua L9x65   
    I'm reading even the Inwin A1 can support a max cooler height of 160mm, so it would accomodate the Hyper 212 (159mm) just barely. 
     
    Regarding the cooling capabilities of the Wraith Prism vs the NH-L9x65, I'm not sure I would suggest the NH-L9x65 for a 1600X (95W TDP) based on Noctua's own suggestion for anything exceeding 84W TDP:

     
    I can't find specifications for the Wraith Prism, but will update this post if I do. Granted they ship the Wraith Prism with the 3900X, a 105W TDP CPU, then I'd imagine it's superior to the NH-L9x65 in thermals, but maybe not noise.

    question: wouldnt this probably make lower res monitor cheaper?
    i mean, if you dont need 3 subpixels for each pixel, the quantity of "subpixels" would cut by 3, am i right?
     
    also, while "12k" is obviously not something we would want(right now), being able to use my 1080 monitor at 4k for example could be useful, even if that doesn't end up being my native resolution

    Sounds awesome, though i honestly don't think any manufacturer is gonna apply this to their current products, probably we'll start seeing "12k" monitors or something crazy like that sometime soon though(if i understood the article correctly lol)

    well i don't really know what else to say, they also reworked some design and moved some feature options to the menu at the top right and basically reworked its framework. that top right menu is also where you can activate dark mode. you first have to sign up for the new youtube trough the link i provided as source though. i have been using shitty extensions until now, it finally is here way to late tbh. some screenshots below.

    While it's not exactly what you're asking for, there are tools that can generate the constructor code for you so you don't have to write it out yourself (example). You can also create your own generator.
     
    More in line with your question, I don't know of an existing solution, but you might be able to create your own solution using reflection. Here are some resources that may or may not help with that. At the very least it should give you an idea of the types of things you would want to search for.

    To a certain point. Different PSUs have different sweet spots in terms of peak efficiency. It's the same with other things like car engines. A car with a larger engine is more efficient that one with a smaller engine at high speeds.
