    That's a budget for a good 1440p high refresh rate monitor, but your GPU would not really be good for 1440p. That Koorui or even some of the cheaper ones would do similar job as XL2411 - https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#r=192001080&D=150000,540000&P=2,7,9&sort=price&page=1 Even the cheapest MSI G244F should be decent. With that budget you could get a decent GPU along side the monitor.

    Reading from Reddit though, the 5900X/5950X goes quite hot even with 360mm AIO: But Freezer 36 should be quite capable air cooler.
  3. Tan3l6
    Still, the price difference between your chosen 2 heat pipe cooler and a half decent 4 heat pipe cooler might even reflect in performance. I think 2 heat pipe cooler might cause even 12400F to thermal throttle.

    Even for 12400F the cooler might not be enough. I'd go for at least 4 heat pipe cooler, something like - https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/KBkWGX/id-cooling-se-214-xt-648-cfm-cpu-cooler-se-214-xt or https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/n6bRsY/arctic-freezer-36-cpu-cooler-acfre00121a

    Rather back up to another, cheaper case imo - https://tetrabyte.gr/product/deepcool-e-shield-midi-tower-με-πλαϊνό-παράθυρο-μαύρο/ XPG ´Valor looks more appealing aesthetically though.

    Science, man!

    Those cost 144€ here. are they really better than the closed back Sundara? I'm not really very familiar with differences in details of different headphones. In rtings the HE400SE is more highly rated by "neutral sound" - https://www.rtings.com/headphones/reviews/hifiman/he400se Than Sennheiser HD 25 - https://www.rtings.com/headphones/reviews/sennheiser/hd-25 And I tend to trust rtings reviews. And a good sound is far above portability or other features, even wireless matters little.

    HE400SE at ~75€ Sundara (closed back) at ~180€ The Sundara is usually above 300€, yet in Aliexpress HiFiMan official store they are now 178€. I wonder if there might be a catch? I bought my HE400SE in 2021 for 150€+ Links to Aliexpress needed? I'll add the link anyway. The prices seem to go up and down quite a lot it seems. And I'm obviously after lower end headphones.

    HiFiMan HE400SE headphones have become quite affordable. I bought mine in 2021 for ~150€

    Now they are ~72€ in Aliexpress. 

    Good headphones for such a low price.

    Funniest paradox - the times I have bought high…

    Custom Air Cooler

    Tan3l6 replied to ID0's topic in Cooling

    Nah, you did not mention that the dimensions are required/max, rather you mentioned "if the cooler is about.." Metric system here last I heard. 6x3x8cm would be required max dimensions for a CPU or power bank? For CPU there should be possible retail products, for a power bank it's obviously another deal. But really, don't mind me, maybe I misread. Edit: yeah I actually did.

    Custom Air Cooler

    Tan3l6 replied to ID0's topic in Cooling

    Not likely. A modern dual-tower 6-7-heatpipe cooler is far above solid metal radiators in efficiency. That's why the latter are gone I believe. That's hard to tell. But I'm not an expert. The lower end coolers would cool 20W CPU very easily and cost ~$10€. For GPUs there are not many options for lower end GPUs. If making a custom cooler it might cost more and be relatively inefficient is my point.

    Funniest paradox - the times I have bought high end PC parts I only use them to play 2D games or something like Hearthstone.

    The minute I downgrade to a more reasonably priced parts I'm wishing to play some latest AAA (aka good looking but failed) game that the cheaper hardware struggles to run.

      Why are you describing me in a status update ?

    Are the Furmark settings and resolution identical on both machines?
  16. Tan3l6
    3DMark Unigine Superposition Unigine Heaven Furmark And that's basically it. So no games.

    Thermalright coolers are usually more effective and cheaper. At least in USA. Something like: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/hYxRsY/thermalright-peerless-assassin-120-se-6617-cfm-cpu-cooler-pa120-se-d3

    It's better, but as mentioned CPU, MoBo and potentially RAM need swapping. And Zen 5 is on the horizon, perhaps 14700F will do till then. Zen 5 is supposedly a quite a big leap even over current X3D.
  19. Tan3l6
    though there is no 12300F, but 12400F? but still the same - much more cores, higher frequency and general performance is quite different (14700F).
  20. Tan3l6
    12300F vs 14700F is quite a big difference. Is it worth the price? If you have the budget for it, then yes.
  21. Tan3l6
    Should be enough by wattage, and quality.
  22. Tan3l6
    Project Farm channel does quite interesting tests, like for power banks: Anker 737? INIU B61? Different pluses.

    i7 13700F real turbo power consumptions might exceed 200W - https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/230491/intel-core-i713700f-processor-30m-cache-up-to-5-20-ghz/specifications.html RTX 3070 also might exceed 200W - https://www.igorslab.de/en/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3070-founders-edition-in-test-ampere-can-also-economic-and-cuddly-small/12/ Other parts consume a bit too. I'd buy a decent PSU before other upgrades. The TDP or 65W or 125W is meant without turbo clocks, which are usually enabled. So yeah.

    For stress testing OCCT is quite good in many aspects. Not really for diagnosing motherboard problems specifically though.
  25. Tan3l6
    Perhaps try the SSD in another slot or in another PC. Though seems it's gone bad.
