    [SOLVED] Does M.2 SSD really eats much of power

    I'm looking to install one more NVM M.2 SSD, which is Samsung 980 Pro 1TB, into the stock m.2 slot. I was not used to having M.2 SSD before but now I worried about the power consumption. Given that 850W is recommended PSU by GIGABYTE, I currently have with the Be Quiet! Straight Power 11 850W...

    [SOLVED] Is air out bottlenecked for my PC?

    Hi all, My PC has RTX 3080Ti GPU, which gives 70C-72C when 100% utilized. As checking the exhaust, my IR thermometer displays around 45C at the rear and the upper left corner at the top of PC case. Does it suggest the I ought to go for stronger fans? There are no worries to the front of air...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Problem solved. I finally returned 5800X. It’s so bad on its temperature.

    Moreover, if temperature is very important I would recommend 5900x with double CCX chipset which gives better performance and lower temperature. You may check this benchmark which also suggests 5800X’s not good for OC...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Thanks for bringing me about the “inside the 5800x”. But the result of cooling performance result of thinkcomputer should be similar. Cooling performance won’t be affected due to different CPU model... X63 280 performs better than some 360 model when CPU is fully loaded.

    So you suggest the heating paste is ought to be applied down the centre of 5800X's heat spreader, do you?

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Do not think of overlocking 5800X as it has been near to 90C as running stability test on cinebench23, prime95, whatever... The CPU is used to being hot in full load even I finally tried Corsair h150i elite capellix 360mm AIO cooler. Despite there is 2C-3C lower for idle temp when using 360mm...

    [SOLVED] Does this pump surface affect the cooling performance?

    I can’t explain further. It is better to check these photos. They are dents due to scratched surface. Should I fill those holes with thermal paste on pump’s cooling surface(NOT THE CPU) before I cover the pump onto the thermal compound applied CPU...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    i think I found the problem. As I remove the stock dust filter of Corsair icue 4000X on the top, overall CPU TEMP is decreased by 5C. The dust filter blocked heat from the radiator. If I fix it, I must remove the filter. But I am unhappy with this option. If I change to mount the radiator at the...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Sorry for inconvenience to check it. I point out three main time points which I noted CPU temp on NZXT CAM reached 90C in Prime95. They are 3:14:54, 7:53:21 and 7:53:35. It was the highest 93C at 7:53:35. The NZXT CAM is displaying the CPU package temperature. In between AMD RYZEN MASTER and...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Hello. Those below were the results you concerned, Cinebench23 for 30 min and 9-hour Prime 95 Torture test. You can see my CPU hitting 90C as running the torture test and almost 90C in Cinebench23 View: https://youtu.be/WIxhBLqbSYw View: https://youtu.be/CI_OLGrjOb0

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Sorry I set the video private on YouTube. I think now you could check it but the second video running on Prime95 is still processing.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    It is because the video is now processing by the YouTube. So I afraid you need to check this after 10minutes. Moreover. Despite CPU temp is around 80-90C, the liquid temp is 35C. Is this suggest the problem of my thermal paste application?

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    I run the test on Passmark Performance Test & Prime95. Those below were the results. Those videos uploaded onto YouTube are processing so check this later if you cannot check this at that moment. View: https://youtu.be/_0gznDQzPl4 View: https://youtu.be/MkQ6niA7hEw

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 7 5800X with Kraken X63 RGB

    Hi. I built my first PC. The temp reading is from NZXT CAM. The lowest idle CPU temperature of my CPU is 36C when I covered both sides of my PC case which is Corsair ICUE 4000X RGB. At the front, I replaced three stock fans with three Corsair H150i RGB magnetic levitation fans with maximum...
