Thanks for the info. I ended up getting the meshify c from fractal design and it’s airflow has made my system run beautifully and I also tweaked with my voltages to help with my thermals. My voltages seemed very high for stock usage and I disabled precision boost Overdrive and I didn’t see any performance issues and my thermals are way better now

Thanks for the info. I made sure to do this.

Update: so I have firgured out that my case airflow isn’t the best and so I’ll be looking into getting a mesh front panel case. But in the mean time I can pop off the front panel from the case and let more airflow. On tope of that I set a fab curve which is now keeping the system at 38c at idle and around 57-60c in game. Those temps I’m happy with but honestly this cooler isn’t worth the price for what I have been experiencing with it. Other people seem to have lots of success which is great but for me I couldn’t recommend it personally.

Okay thanks. I’ll take a look into turning off auto oc and seeing if that helps me. It shouldn’t drop my performance by a whole lot from what I have seen

I found an article which and individual used the drp4 to cool the 3900x and his temps at idle were 51c and in gaming he had around 69c and stress test he had 80c so I’m confused as to why my hyper 212 evo performed so well. Granted the review is using a much higher tdp chip than mine but not by much in all reality. What’s re your opinions on my normal temps and my temps after the fact?

UPDATE: so before I switched from my splitter to plugging both fans into separate headers, I changed my fan speed to full speed and it seemed to keep temps down. But, that is totally different from the hyper 212. I eventually took out the splitter and it did stay at the same performance. I’m hitting about 59c in game and about 37-40c at idle Once my system reaches equilibrium with the room temp. I just don’t know how long my fans will last running full blast all the time. They are be quiet fans so they are high quality fans I just wish it didn’t take me running the fans at full speed to get the performance I was wanting.

I have no auto oc feature going. The only thing that is going on is the precision boost overdrive that and uses for these chips which tries and pulls as much performance from the chip when possible. I can try and remedy this by under bolting the system but the problem with that is that I lose performance which was probably negligible.

Well I have watched a few videos which involved an and chip and they used the cooler I am using and it’s fine. But there is always that possibility.

I’ll do that when I can and I’ll update thanks btw!

I’ll try that and see if there is an improvement thanks!

I did that multiple time and no improvement. The thermal paste application covers the entire ihs and there isn’t any visible areas where there isn’t enough of the paste.

I did not overclock it yet and hardware monitor was reporting similar temps maybe a degree or two of variation

I have a ryzen 5 3600 btw

I am using the included fan splitter it came with. Also I have ryzen master on while playing to monitor the temps and I was monitoring temps in the same game whenever I was under load.i also didn’t let it dry in so that’s one thing I could try. I also don’t think I got a bad batch of paste because the consistency was good and I didn’t upgrade but I wanted just some more cooling potential because I was planning on overclocking the chip.

No I have the same case as before
