Posted October 18, 2019 I am a total noob when it comes to this. Beware. (also, Im not sure if I should post here or in watercooling, so I will do both) Im wanting to build an ITX desktop using a RX 5700 GPU. Im worried that the small fan will be noisy. I mainly do productivity, but also enjoy playing games like Rocket League and Space engineers, so nothing too heavy on the card. If I was to water cool the GPU with a single 120mm radiator with a single Noctua fan, would I be okay? Once again, Im a total noob, go easy on me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 18, 2019 Should be fine, are you using that NZXT bracket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference. How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 18, 2019 If you're looking at the NZXT Kraken G12 to cool it, you're not going to have a good time. I know from first hand experience that it will not fit on the RX 5700 without modifying the bracket, or boring out the mounting holes on your PCB (extremely not recommended). The bracket just does not line up with the GPU mounting holes, they're off by barely 1mm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
