I do not understand why you would get a CPU that can't be overclocked in a custom loop. It doesn't make sense to me.

i would really really really love to have a higher cpu,, but the budget would be an issue,,

How did you afford custom water blocks for both the CPU and GPU then? Those are super expensive, and result in no benefit for the CPU since it's locked.

its cheap

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Some people do it on old cheap hardware when it's their first time so that if they do fuck up and it leaks then at least they didn't just throw a grand out the window..

trade off,, if i have spent more on the cpu then i was not be able to purchase the used r9-290 with waterblock,, it was a bit of a bargain and i had to go for it,,
