No CPU Cooler

[ziaboy123]

I decided to build my first PC but my NZXT Kraken X63 hasn't arrived yet and I'm really impatient. My parts list is attached. Is it fine for me to build and boot up my PC without the CPU cooler?

Build yes, boot up not.

Do you mean like with no cooler period or with the stock cooler that comes with the 5800x (if it comes with one). Cause if it's the former, hell no.

Moved to the Cooling subforum. The Forum Suggestions subforum is for suggesting features for the forum.

No not at all ok

5800x does not come with a cooler, do not power the machine up without one.

For a 5800X I'd suggest a Dark Rock Pro, or Scythe Fuma 2, or an AK-620.

 

Do not run it without a cooler.

You can POST under BIOS, see the temp reach 95C under 30 sec and then your PC will shut down

Better not do it

You're right, I was writing in haste.
