Back with an update! Following most of the advice in this thread, I managed to stop the temps from sitting at the thermal throttle limit during gaming and idle below 60c. Swapped all 4 case fans to intake, 3 radiator fans are exhaust, undervolted the cpu with a -0.2 offset, (anything much...

Ohhhh I get you, that makes sense. Nice, I'll try that out too once I get back home. Thanks for all the info, really appreciated! Hopefully changing all those settings, changing the two case fans from exhaust to intake and reapplying the thermal paste will make the temps manageable. Gaming next...

Max voltage is I think 1.2. It was running at 1.45v and I set a negative 0.25, seemed stable until I tried to shut down and it locked up completely. Will probably have to bump that negative to 0.2 and see if it still locks up on shutdown. It was stable otherwise. Curve optimizer and pbo...

That's something I love about this case- It has the magnetic dust filters hidden under vented panels on every inlet except a section of the rear of the case, which doesn't have a fan but should function as an exhaust port if I switch all of the case fans to intake. That way the 3 rad fans...

Good to know! Looks like I have a few things to do when I get home later. I'll be reapplying the Kryonaut Extreme paste, with this in mind. Looks like the spatula method is best for this paste, which I did not do last application. Gpu temps have been decent, nothing crazy for a 7900xtx. It...

I defaulted the bios and set the voltage to a negative offset of -0.25 and the temps really dropped, but it still seems high. After this, I went and turned PBO back on, with much lower than stock settings. I'm at work right now and can't remember what I set it to off the top of my head, but it...

Thanks for the reply, giving this a try now. Voltage was at 1.45 and would drop some (which seems strange to me but what do I know) during gaming to 1.2 or so before making your suggested changes. Will report back soon 👍

Thank you 😊 Sure thing, I'll attach some to this reply. Sorry about the reflection/glare, I did my best Build pics: View: https://imgur.com/a/Vprat8l My bios is version 3603 x64. As far as I know it is the most recent version but I haven't checked up on that in a month or two. The AIO is...

Parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nMcT74 My Ryzen 9 5900X runs too hot even with a Deepcool Castle 360EX 360mm AIO. Manual throttle limit set via bios to 88c and it will reach and sit at 88c throughout gaming, and it idles above 60c. Currently, I have PBO turned on with curve...
