  1. Thank you. That said, my cpu was running at 95C before I handled case airflow. From everything I read, that's not really safe. IS there any benefit to buying an expensive AM cooler (nh d15s), beyond noise? Assuming I dont want to overclock and don't need more performance. Thanks
  2. Hi, I've got a situation and would really appreciate any help. Just to reference my knowledge base, a week ago I knew that Intel and AMD exist, didnt know that AMD CPUs are called ryzen (I was just paying aws). I decided to buy a pc for CPU compute tasks. I built the pc myself, everything went smoothly afaik. Downloaded all updates and new chipset driver. The only OC done is enabling XMP in MB, so that I get 3200MHz from my RAM. I use HW monitor and ryzenmaster CPU: 3900x, stock cooler, enabled high RPM MB: MSI B450 Tomahawk max RAM: HyperX 16GB KIT DDR4 3200MHz CL16 Predator Series VGA: old Geforce GTX1060 (pulled from friend's crypto 2yr old farm, I never play games, I'd use integrated VGA if I could) PSU: old EVGA 650 GQ (ditto, should be high quality PSU and 2 years are supposedly fine) case Fractal Design Focus G. I run the analysis, using all 24 cores, roughly 12hr/day. At first, it ran at 95C, I bought a rear fan/top fan and opened a case and the temp dropped to 81-82C, voltage 1.4. I assume that's ok? I don't need the cpu to survive for 10 years anyway, I'll replace it sooner (honestly if cpu survives 3-5 years I'm happy). However, PPT is 95%-98% (of 142W), CPU Power 105W, TDC 87%-90% of 95A and EDC is 94%-97% of 140A. These indicators appear red (TDC is yellow) in the ryzenmaster. Is this acceptable for longterm load? SOC power is 20W, Peak speed ~3950MHz I'd just like to check that by running these I won't ruin the cpu too fast. I honestly have no idea wtf they mean, how serious it is and internet is suspiciously quiet (most of the info I found uses descriptors I don't understand). Assuming I don't care about the noise and absolutely do not need higher performance, is there any benefit in getting nh d15s? thanks
