Needed a new cooling solution for my FX9590 (bought for £299) so don’t flame me for buying one…

Anyway, the FX9590 having a 220W TDP overclocking it sort of maxed out the H100i abilities and made everyday operation of computer a bit loud, as fan often went to max during only light load, and with that any hopes or aspirations of overclocking the FX9590 was dashed…

So I decided to do a bit of an overkill solution and here are the results…

Hope you like…

What kind of temps are you getting at max load?

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

That's my old CPU, its backup just in case I kill this one overclocking it, but if I don't it will be used in a friends build.

hell lot of money

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.

My OCD requires it lol

It's powdered off the psu

Having problems with oc because of ram, can only use multi to oc.

I am hoping its a good office heater for the winter...

This is awesome! Why didn't you water cool the GPU? It's not like you don't have the radiator surface to do so...

I'm guessing because it's only a 7850, the block and extra fittings wouldn't really justify it imo.
