Hello! I have ordered the 12600k after watching linus’ video and I’m not sure what cooler I should pick, I know that he had mention/used the Noctua NH-D15 but I’m not quite sure if I should get that cooler or not (not looking for bang for the buck, just trying to get the best possible air cooler) Thanks!

I'm currently looking to upgrade my cooling from a cpu fan to an AIO cooler. However, there are two issues that I've run into. I don't know if my case can fit a 280 mm on the top of the case (my case is a Fractal Meshify C while my motherboard is a MSI MPG Z490 GAMING CARBON WIFI LGA 1200). This is why I'm stuck between getting a 280mm and a 240mm. However this is my other issue, I don't know what are the best AIO's to get. I'm not interested in price since I'm willing to spend a good amount, I'm only interested in performance.

Budget (including currency): under 100 if possible usd It will be in my light editing and gaming machine I'm using a really loud random stock cooler it keeps the temps low but it's waaay to loud -
so I got a mobo that is from an old pc link here https://www.ebay.com/itm/392167288262 and i got an i5 2500k with the stock cooler. the mobo has a weird backplate and means that the mounting holes in the mobo are too small for the CPU cooler to be mounted I will attach image. Do i need to get a backplate or remove the backplate or what. any help appreciated

I'm wanting to install the 240mm AIO water cooler into this CASE and AM4 MOBO. Comp CASE - CORSAIR CARBIDE 275R Computer Case Motherboard(AM4) - GIGABYTE X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING I am close to buying this model cooler... ARCTIC COOLING Liquid Freezer II - 240mm ACFRE00046A Multi Compatible All-In-One CPU Water Cooler (Amazon $86.99) To be installed on an AMD computer. I have decided to install the RAD to the top. If the top is the best position, I need to know one simple thing. BTW, I've heard30-40 different answers and I really need not just an answer but a little explanation as to why it is Pump or RAD 1st? Question:- Do I first install the water pump onto the CPU or do I install the Radiator on top First? Another Question, Do I install the Pump outside the Case....Outside the Case for RAD also...But the length of water lines don't seem long enough to do this? THANK YOU so much for you knowledge and time. -
Budget (including currency): Country: Argentina Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 3d modeling (poly, cad and nurbs), 3d rendering, gaming, Vr etc Other details im building a new pc, so far iv bought the motherboard, the case, the cpu & the cooler, so im almost there, im going to use mi existing storage for the time being but i am planing in buying a m.2 nvme module and another sata ssd im using my old GPU until the whole gpu market is somewhat more stable and prices are somewhat near msrp CPU: AMD 5900x Cooler: bequiet! Dark rock 4 Motherboard: ASUS TUF gaming x570 plus wifi Case: bequiet! Silent base 802 So i'm having an issue with ram clearance, i'm planning on a 2x16gb of 3200 ram setup but im worried the ram clearance is too tight, or might not fit at all, according to the MOBO manual when running a 2 module configuration only the second and last ram sockets counting from the cpu socket outward are used, which gives me some extra room, as the ram module would be further away from the cooler. The ram clearance stated in the bequiet product site is 40mm to the radiator & 23.15 to the fan. I can place the fan higher but i'm still not sure if i'm getting enough space. Anyway, my 2 candidates are either the corsair vengeance modules(34mm) or the g.skill trident Z rgb modules (44mm) of curse the trident z are taller but i think they would look great just to add a little rgb flair to my build due to the fact that all my other components are rather plain, im planning a black & white build so both could work fine black corsairs or white rgb lit trident z. Sorry for the long post. Would appreciate some tips, insights or any kind of help. -

Hello, I bought graphics card and CPU cooler from my friend who smokes on regular basis. Now I want to clean metal part of graphics card cooler and GPU cooler (Strix GTX 1080Ti and Nocotua NH-D15). I don't smoke but my room smells like burnt cigarettes. As far as I can see on the internet, washing the PC components has become normal. My previous experience is not good. Few years ago I washed the CPU cooler and it became rusty. Can anyone tell me what is the correct and safe way to wash the coolers mentioned above?

Hello, I'm currently using the AMD Wraith Stealth cooler in my itx build. I want my CPU to boost to it's max speeds for more FPS in my CPU bound games but I don't think that will be possible if I stick with the Wraith Stealth (currently at 3.8-3.9 GHz). My case supports up to 73mm coolers. What coolers do you guys recommend for my current build? I've been looking at the Noctua L9a but I am open to cheaper/better options.

Hi, I am going to upgrade my CPU, motherboard and AIO cooler and i want to make sure that everything will work together. The CPU i am using is a ryzen7 3700x, The motherboard I am using is the Gigabyte B550M AORUS PRO-P micro ATX and the cooler I am using is the Artic liquid freezer || (120mm) I think the cooler should be ok to handle the CPU temps but I am a little concerned about motherboard and cooler clearance issues. Thanks.

Hey guys I wan to upgrade the cooler of my ryzen 5 3600 from the stock cooler, as the title suggests I have a budget of 40-60usd. Based on the research that I have done scythe fuma 2 seems to be a great cooler choice but unfortunately it costs a lot here in my country (Philippines) it costs around 60-70USD. AIOs and Air Coolers are all welcome suggestions. Thank you!

i have to cool a fx8320 on a 980DE3 mobo from ASRock (yeah i know bad mobo don't judge me) and a lot of people advocate for the cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO. asrock recommends a top down cooling system. i found a https://www.cnet.com/products/arctic-freezer-34-esports-duo-processor-cooler-acfre00060a/ witch is not a top down one but i think that it can be compensated by the fact that the vrms are cooled (i think) by 3 fans (2 intake front and side 1 exaust). Can it work? i also want to add that i will not OC the cpu (despite my name :D) if not my budget is around 40-45 euros. any tips

Hiya people, will the Dark Rock Pro 4 fit in my H510 elite? Ram clearance, I'm using 2 of these but planning to put another 2 in: https://www.ebuyer.com/1126766-lexar-8gb-ddr4-3200mhz-cl19-udimm-ld4au008g-r3200gsst on my Msi B550-a pro in the H510 elite

When two pieces of metal are lapped (not just sanded) they stick together. And if they stick together, it means they have near-perfect contact between them. Which, in theory, means that lapping both your IHS and cooler well enough can make them able to transfer heat at a much higher rate than thermal paste. In practice, I tried searching for people who actually did this, found an old forum post from 2005, where someone wanted to do it but apparently never got around to it. Found a more recent 2020 YouTube video with someone planning to do it, but they also haven't done it yet. Do you guys have any information on this topic? Has anyone done before/after tests properly? Do temps get lower? Are the thermal paste merchants hiding the truth on purpose? If anyone is brave enough to try, be aware of galvanization occurring between different metals. IHS and cooler also might cold weld together I think. Example of metals sticking: -
I've bought a Corsair H100i Platinium to cool my 5800X but it's horrible. I'm hearing pump gurgles and not seeing good temps at all (usually thermal throttling and 50C at idle) So these are a few options I'm considering: 1)ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360mm 2)Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B 3)Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black 4)Noctua NH-U12A The reason I chose the Arctic AIO is it not using an asetek pump unlike Corsair (and almost the entire market for that matter) and having good reviews -
A few days ago I saw pictures of this AIO cooler on the Instagram page of Noctua: Instagram picture post: https://www.instagram.com/p/COQTt3yAkt7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link FB assembly video: https://fb.watch/5gORuSYGtC/ FB thermals video: https://fb.watch/5gVkDSVc6i/ The guy has also a FB page (https://www.facebook.com/SonGayCustom/). This custom cooler looks amazing, but the thermals are not exceptional as of a standard 120 rad with soft tubing. The name of the creator is Sơn Gầy. I don't know even how it is pronounce. He got two videos on his FB page - one of the assembly, one of the thermal tests and comparison. On the second one he mentions that the thermals are not as good compared with a 120 rad, but still manages to beat some of Noctua air coolers. P.S. I am not the creator of this custom AIO. I am just sharing what I have found.

Is the stock cooler from intel enough for a core i3-10100?

I have a MSI z490 gaming Edge mobo and an I7 10700kf and my CPU clock speed is at 4800mhz and when doing basic stuff like playing Minecraft and discord at the same time it goes up to 80* I have a NZXT x53. I know my overclock is really high how do I turn it off? I turned off the CPU essay overclock on the MSI bios and that didn’t work. How do I fix this?

Before you post saying that the card is a fake here's a picture of the branded chip (zoom in). Hello everyone, I got this card for free from a buddy that does warranty for prebuilt pcs. He doesn't know from what specific prebuilt this is but there's a reddit post mentioning this card and a comment about it ( 1 ; 2 ) there's also an old ebay page for it ( 1 ) The GPU itself is working great but the temperatures are a bit too hot (even after changing the thermal paste). I'd like to get a third party GPU cooler but I'm not sure what would fit... I've seen people suggesting the Accelero III, NZXT G12 (which might need some modding), the MORPHEUS II or the id Cooling 120mm vga cooler for other blower style 2070's but no one seems sure if they fit or not. The problem that I see is the DVI shroud and that usually doesn't allow a good fit. Here's some pictures of the board when I changed it's thermal paste today ( 1 ) Hope you guys can help me since on reddit everyone just calls it fake and what not. I can also post a Userbench page to prove that it's working as expected and it's not a spoofed card. Thanks! PS: Maybe a video about these weird custom brand made prebuilt cards would be something interesting? PPS: I live in Canada -
Hey everyone, I came here hoping to get some help with my build, I built it around 3 months ago, ryzen 5 3500x with a kraken x53 cooler, GPU is a rx 5500 xt gaming x 8gb. I noticed that my idle temps were quite high, at first I noticed it around 39-45 Celcius. (CPU and GPU), sometimes even around 45-55 degrees for the CPU. these are all stock settings for both CPU and GPU. My case is the SSUPD Meshlicious, before that, I had a NZXT h210, same temps, my room is not hot, around 20-26 degrees. With this case I was actually expecting better temps since it has mesh side panels on almost all sides, I have a tempered glass panel for the CPU side since it has an AIO, I tried opening the panel for a bit, no changes. I tried stress tests for both CPU and GPU and highest temps are around 72 so that's good. Fan curve for rad fans is at 100%, pump is at 100% too. running a negative air pressure setup, tried reversing it, same thing. tried replacing thermal paste on the heatsink twice, same thing. all parts were bought no later than april of 2021. Can anyone help? thank you P.S. not sure if I posted this on the right place, kinda new to asking help in forums.

Ok guys so I built my pc and got everything working but it’s literally killing me because I can’t play it, I have a master liquid 240ml v2 rgb and my cpu is reaching 90 degrees, if I left it on I’m sure it would keep rising till I don’t have a cpu, ive tried re applying thermal paste and changing positions on the aio, I have it top mounted, the pump is well below the radiator, I don’t wanna front mount it because I don’t know how to take the front panel off, I’m bout to go to geek squad if I can’t figure this out and get charged like 400 for them to replace a cooler lmao help me please
