With what do you cool your i9 79xxs CPU?

[mark911]

Hi guy's,I was wondering with what do you cool your i9 thermal beasts? 

I'm using for mine i9 7900x  delidded ,420mm/60mm  and 360mm/60mm thick rad in push and push/pull conifg... and OCed to all cores  4,4Ghz/1.09V   CPU input voltage at 1,500V my temps goes like  95C on blender...  

Just want to get some sense where does my   heating central falls in CPU scale...

i mean, 18 cores.

would be more interested on how you cool your VRMs and keep your board from catching on fire.

1,500 volts is a bit on the high side

I don't have an i9 but I do have a Skylake-X based CPU, I have an i7 7800X 6C/12T running at 4.5GHz (all cores) with a voltage of 1.209V and cooled by a Corsair H115i 280mm AIO. With all cores maxed out 100% I get around 75c on the package and sometimes peaking at 80c which I'm totally fine with.

1,500V is VCCIN, that is not the same as core voltage

Asus RVIE  have a great cooling solution for VRMs even for 18core CPUs,But for mine 7900x VRM don't go over 50C ever.

Not really, GN AND der8auer have both commented on how the vrms on the RVIE throttle.  Put a monoblock on that puppy if you want to put an 18 core on it.

When I set core Voltage at 1,250V my rads are totally capable of keeping my room warm and cozy.

Honestly,I have  EK monoblock and I see no need to install  it on my mobo,because I'm on 4,4Ghz and there is no VRM  overheating...If you want some crazy OC results on 18 core than use  of monoblock is necessity,but for normal OC there is really no need.

What version do you have?

[mark911]

The one with massive VRM heatsink(the one with fins)
