    that difference is really small and well within the margin of error with cinebench
     
    and cinebench doesn't really seem to care about memory speeds to begin with

    LethoX got a reaction from Tan3l6 in NH-D15 VS CNPS20X 90 euro vs 45 euro, which one should I buy?   
    From the charts the Zalman looks about equal to the NH-D15 in noise and maybe even cools better. However what I "heard" was that the CNPS20x had a weird pitch or static noise to it. Mainly because of the "X" mounting it has in front of the fans. Which is the main thing that's keeping me from buying it to be honest. I'm also wondering if it makes a difference what case fans I have, like right now I have 3x noctua nf-a14 case fans. If I bought the NH-D15, then all my fans in my case would be noctua and perhaps my PC would be overall more quiet since it's the same brand?

    I don't "need" it, but I do want a dual tower. Considering I want a quiet build, I'm leaning towards the Noctua. Also because of the warranty & they provide brackets for the future.

    Nah not really tho.
     
    EDIT: After further digging, the MSI have already rolled out a "Beta version" (7B86vMC1(Beta version)) of the support for 5000 series and resizable BAR in B450-A PRO MAX.
     
    I may be wrong since I'm using a B550 board so you may wanna ask somebody if it really does support it (fingers crossed)
     
    EDIT2: Yea it seems like they can support it now and its the only version for B450s

    In that case I guess I'll have to buy a B550 instead? If I want to use my 5600x now

    The cheapest board you can find for sale will run a stock 5600x just fine. Even the junkiest board will run a 65w CPU with no issues. Theres very little to be gained from overclocking ryzen chips either, especially newer ones, their factory boost alogrithm is very good.

    I wouldnt bother with B550 if your on a budget either. But B450 might need a bios update so thats something to consider if you dont have access to another chip.

    But ofcourse, it really depends how you define "budget motherboard". a 5600x and 1080 arent really budget parts.

    Mobo List. The thing that I can recommend are the MSI B550 Mortar and TUF Plus (either a mATX and ATX form) ~$150ish. They are 'allocated' in the Tier A list. 
     
    As for the PSU, get 650W or 750W for some headroom.

    I would suggest a Good B550 board would do you well, probably don't need to go crazy and can get something in the £120 range ($150) from Asus/Gigabyte/MSI etc. AS for PSU for overclocking, 550W is gonna be a bit low too be comfortable. I haven't overclocked much but I would want 650W+ if I was doing anything in that space to avoid stability issues.

    There's a guy on the german website you linked saying he used the same case and cpu. So I guess it does fit then which is perfect. You've been really helpful and I appreciate it a lot. Have a great day

    According to the Corsair web-site the max XPU cooler height is:

    Maximum CPU Cooler Height  150mm     The Arctic is 158 mm tall, so it wouldn't fit.  Not sure about the other one.

    In your case, the Arctic Freezer 34 is a solid choice.  I bought one for my Ryzen 3600 build with a MSI B450 Tomahawk Max motherboard.   The Arctic Freezer was not compatible out of the box.  The Arctic web site does not have any information on what motherboards are compatible out of the box.   Arctic will send you a new backplate to use with the motherboard if it isn't compatible.

    So while the Arctic should work great, you might have to wait for a new part from Arctic to be sent via mail.  I would also call the company directly since e-mails do not get answered (at least they have not yet and it has been 7 days now).

    you already have a fidelio x2, which are basically on the same footing with all the headphones you've listed. You literally need to step up and spend at least $700 to get a real noticeable upgrade in general sound clarity

    For bassy music? No the HE4XX don’t have a lot of bass. I have a set coming by the end of the month so I’ll let you know about gaming. I’m writing a sub $200 Massdrop headphone showdown. HD6XX vs. K7XX vs. T-X0 vs. HE4XX

    I went to the website shown looking for some specs on the device but unfortunately none are given or shown.  But, reading through all the descriptions and everything listed on the support page, I would "assume" this device is what you are looking for.  When installing, just make sure to follow the directions given.  I copied them from their page so that I could paste them here.  Information follows:.........

    Most audio settings have a mic boost and an adjustable mic gain. For Windows 10, this is found by going to Sound -> Recording Devices, and selecting the properties of your microphone.
    Step 1: For mics in uni-directional mode (noise cancelling): ensure that the Mic icon on the tip of the boom (just before the pop filter) is facing your mouth.
    Step 2: Ensure that Automatic Gain Control (AGC) or similar automated sound levels are turned off.
    Step 3: Bend the mic closer to your mouth, but be sure to avoid your breath stream.
    Step 4: Adjust the mic gain up until your voice is clear. You can listen to your own mic in the “Listen” tab in the properties of your mic. You can also add boost, but note that higher gain and higher boost may also increase “white noise” in the background.
