I have a stock intel fan blowing air onto them and I am sure that is not helping much. Heatsinks sounds good but the cooler's circular mount just gets in the way.

I can't get a new cooler now, this one does its job very well. I currently have a stock intel fan blowing air directly onto the vrms and also acting as a intake. I touched the vrms with my bare finger and it almost burnt me, ouch. Must have been 50-80degrees. Don't have a heat gun to check though.

It was an i5-3470S (65w). No bios update, it was plug and play, bios is also very primitive with no easy flashing options, doubt this chinese generic OEM even puts out updates. PSU is old, can't remember much but it was about 3years old? I believe the psu is fine , it can handle full load...

So, recently I got a cheap i7 for my pc to remove as much bottleneck as possible. My pc was shutting down because CPU was reaching 95+ on stress test so i went and bought a cheap cooler and now it maintains < 70C. If I turn off turbo boost ( @ 3.4ghz) and run PRIME95, the cpu draws 52-53watts...

No not really, even I haven't even properly toured around in my own country.😂 Interesting question, they do earn more than the average here, you also have to factor the living expenses on top of mountains. $2 for a glass of hot water? Quickly negates the extra income... Anyways, getting off...

Im from Nepal, funny that is borders china but china DOESN'T ship to nepal cheaply. Shipping costs are $100+ customs are too much a hassle.

Actually i dont mind the push bin brackets and clip on for the tower cooler. Right now this properly mounted stock cooler is inadequte, just for finishing my work, by doing some underclocking and disabling the turbo boost to bring it down to i5 level performance/heat. Copper is expensive so...

Ok, so I am using the extra stock cooler, it working ok-ish but still throttling doesn't happen and sometimes shuts my pc off if I render a 5minute video. I have decided to buy a new tower cooler. I found these two options. Cooler master hyper T20. Deepcool AG200. Both are available at the...

I have tested with a USB 3.0 drive and I received a copy speed of ~ 120MB/s (this was when I had a HDD and was copying videos from my PC to laptop). I have long lost that pendrive though. There is also a front panel connector for USB3.0 but my case doesn't have that so I'm not using it. The 2...

There are 2 USB 3.0 ports !

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, the realtek PCIE is the onboard one and I have hidden the IPs.

So Is there no way I can just run the system with a stock cooler for like few weeks? I am going to salvage a free one from a very old PC. I thought it would be fine since I am not overclocking or anything. For your reference, the stock cooler is the most basic one, the one without the copper...

So I just bought a cheap i7 to get some performance boost ( I will update to a new platform after a year until then I'm stuck with it). Unfortunately I broke the Intel stock cooler mounting pins (the white cover that surround the black push pins on the bottom). To test if the cooler was...

I have a old system, i7 3770 on a generic H61 motherboard. The onboard ethernet caps out at 100mbps while I have a 200mbps fiber. I also need to transfer large files sometimes to my laptop and the fastest way would be through my home network but my current fast onboard ethernet is bottlenecking...
