It should be enough for those games. Keep background tasks to a minimum though. Where are you buying it from? Is it used? If its used id recommend cleaning out dust and replacing thermal paste if the original owner never did.

Is long term blutooth speaker harmful for health?

This type of thing is perfectly safe. All wireless signals transmitted by bluetooth, wifi, etc. are incapable of doing anything to us. Turning it off when not in use would save some power but would make no difference to anything else. -
$1K for a case seems just a tiny bit illogical. The InWin ModFree looks alot more normal and also kinda interesting. I think I have to go custom loop to get exactly what I want without compromise. Not gonna do the ghetto stuff like hooking AC to my pc though. The modfree says it can do 3x140mm in the front and also another on top which would be a 420mm rad so I can get 2x of those if I wanna go all out. That would probably be more than enough.

You should not judge products based on brand and you also shouldn't judge people just cause they use a brand you don't like. I did not consider the brand to be an issue when buying it because I buy products based on how good they are in terms of functionality, nothing else. This keyboard felt like it had a higher build quality and the input delay was noticeably lower than the older but still high end corsair keyboard I was using previously, just so you know. You're definetly not showing me that.

There are guides on how I can do it properly or with less risk and if I follow that guide absolutely perfectly and carefully ill probably be fine, and also the process for a 14900k would probably be much different than a 7820X. I can practice doing it on a cheap used celeron or something as well to improve my chances. The temp difference is much more significant than anything else I could do. And also I probably will change the case as well.

First of all, 90c+ is normal for a 14900k and that is at like maximum 100% load which isn't common. The temps are in the 60s while gaming usually and only 40c idle. But if I do something heavy that does max it out for an extended period of time, I don't want it running that high. Id have to crank my fans and make them sound like a jet engine to make it run cooler, they're already at the maximum speed id still consider quiet. And also my ambient temperature is already quite low usually.
-
This makes no sense, if i reverse the fan setup id only have 1 intake and 3 exhausts which is bad for dust and also especially bad since the rear fan does not have dust filtering. Besides its the cpu im worried about running at 90c+ under super heavy workloads, potentially limiting max oc and also lifespan among other things. Gpu is fine at 75c max, I just want the block to make the card smaller so maybe I could fit the pump/res there.

I want to fit a custom loop in my case but my hardware is already a pretty tight fit and im also not sure exactly what id need as I have not done custom water cooling before. I need it to have this: both cpu and gpu in the loop (tuned 14900KF, 200W full load, 80-100w gaming average, 45w idle, and stock msi 4090 gaming x trio, 200-400W depending on the game, 76w idle, rarely have i seen it go near the 450w tdp) thick 360mm rad (already using phanteks t30 fans) standard pump/res combo, this is the part im not sure id be able to fit as you will see with the photo i took. Putting a waterblock on the gpu makes it way smaller which i think may be required for this. soft tubing no rgb components This is some of what id want to use, res, fluid, and tubing I have no idea about. https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-quantum-magnitude-1700-full-nickel https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-quantum-surface-x360m-black https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-quantum-vector2-trio-rtx-4090-d-rgb-nickel-plexi gpu block has rgb but im assuming I can just leave it unplugged right? I also plan to use this watercooling hardware with future upgrades, like when upgrade to intel 15th or ryzen 9000 i want to keep everything and just switch the cpu block (I may actually wait for this cause the lga 1700 block is expensive and I don't want to have to replace it right away unless maybe im lucky and next gen mounting is the same). Same with gpu but ill probably skip 50 series as my 4090 is already fast enough for what I do, cpu though I always upgrade. case: phanteks P400A black non RGB version And also yes I know my pc is overdue for some cleaning so don't judge the dust on top of my card and psu basement.

WEIRD - Why does 30 FPS sometimes feel good and sometimes bad?

with what? Did you use a proper latency analyzer tool or just software?
