cpu cooling

Hello, Today I mounted an NH-D15 with a single fan in the middle on my Ryzen R7 5800 X3D. I applied thermal grizzly kryonaut onto the CPU as it's what I had lying around. The Noctua manual said to apply the paste to a AM-4 CPU using a five-dot pattern with one larger dot in the middle. However...

I have an Alder Lake N97 mini-ITX motherboard which has a soldered-down BGA CPU and non-standard heatsink. Upgrading the heatsink isn't a very realistic option, at least not without some custom machining that I'm not setup to do. I have added case fans, but the CPU is still sometimes pegged at...

Hi all, I recently bought all the parts I need for my new gaming pc. Still waiting for the RAM so currently I am doing some building research. It has been about 5 years since I last build my own PC so I am quite rusty. Two things I am unsure about is the positioning of the extra case fans that...

Hi, My friend's MSI Coreliquid 240mm is having some problems so we're going to do a replacement. He needs an AIO because it's a fairly compact mATX case and he's running an i9 9900KF so it makes a fair bit of heat. I can't seem to get the Arctic Freezer II here in New Zealand, at least not...

I just bought an HP Envy "gaming" computer. It runs really, really hot when gaming, and has a 12th Gen i9-12900 16 core CPU. The case only has a front fan which is poorly placed, a rear 92mm exhaust fan, and a 92mm CPU fan with one and a half cooling towers. There is however a spot above the...

I'm wondering if there are any best CPU coolers that glow in the dark. I have a conjecture that these coolers aren't recommended due to the cooler unable to cool effectively during overclocking, but I don't need to overclock. (I might, but not necessarily.) I'm aiming for Intel Core i7 Alder...

Hi all, did a similar thread a couple weeks back but I recently swapped out my cooler as it wasn't keeping temps in check for the chonky noctua to d15 and idle temps have improved drastically around 35 degrees but in stress tests its shooting up to 97 to 100 degrees in under a minute. Tried...

Hi guys, I recently have installed Coolermaster’s ML240L ARGB Masterliquid cooler. Once installed, I checked BIOS temperature and it was running at 90-100 celcius, keep in mind this was not during a video game. My motherboard only has SYS fans and a CPU header so I was told to put the pump into...

Hey! I bought an Aorus liquid cooler 360, installed it, everything is fine with Aorus Engine and RGB Fusion 2.0, everything is working. The pump cant detect my cpu type, write on the screen "AMD" cpu name but i have an intel i9-11900K. The cooler is used maybe this was first option or used...

So lately I've been thinking of getting an AIO cooler. Specifically the "Cooler Master MASTERLIQUID ML240L RGB V2" and i noticed that my motherboard does not have the CPU_OPT header and I've been searching abt it for almost 2 hours. I've been thinking of trying to connect both the fans and the...

PCGamesN was saying that the quietest AIO cooler is the Corsair H100i Pro RGB. So I am thinking of buying it. Is it powerful enough to cool down i9-7900X when the computer is in full use for hours?

I recently purchased an i9-12900k and an Asus Ryujin 360 AIO cooler. I installed the cooler perfectly. No issues installing. It is flush to the cpu and thermal paste stock from the cooler itself. When I boot the computer, I went to BIOS and the CPU temp was sitting between 89 and 90c. Any...

Good day, Is the Lian Li Galahad 360mm AIO cooler enough for an all core overclocked 5900x? My 5900x which is currently overclocked on all cores at 4.5ghz is cooled by my 4 year old cooler which is the corsair h115i 280mm aio cooler. I'm looking to overclock it further to at least 4.7ghz on all...

To people who had experiences with custom loops and using AIO's...is a custom loop worth it? Does it make a big difference compared to AIO's? Care to share some of your experiences and thoughts about this subject...I really would like to know if it gives a big benefit in the real world...

so my corsair hydro h110i aio is 3+years old maybe even 4+ icant recall but basically my i9 9900k idle temps are 44-54c and under gaming loads like need for speed shift or battlefield v its hitting 88-98c which is scary. ive just ordered a NZXT kraken x63 do you think that with solve the cooling...

TL;DR 1. Are there any 360mm AIOs with long enough tubes to install them with tubes down in a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh? 2. Will a 280mm AIO + a 120mm fan fit in the front of a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh? 3. If the answer is Yes on question 1 and 2, which alternativ is better? (May need to read the...

I have all stock settings, and have never OCed my 8700k. I just put in a new Corsair H100i RGB AIO cooler since my Hyper 212 Evo was giving me high temps.. I ran prime95 with CPU HWMONITOR running the back to see my temps. I saw that the vcore was 1.344v.. I feel like this is too high for stock...

This morning my I turned on my pc, started playing some music through Spotify, went away for about 10mins and when I came back the monitor was saying it had no input and the music was stuck on a loop. I googled these symptoms and it sounded like an overheating issue. I did a hard reboot and...

Hey , I got this (see title) combo and I have been using it for a while. But I cant help to think that temps are a bit to high for an expensive cooler like this. so I wanted to ask you guys if something is wrong cuz I cant find reliable info online for the same cooler on the same cpu I have...

I am building a water-cooled PC currently using the ASUS ROG strix z490-i mini-itx motherboard. Just for reference, the CPU is i9 10900KF. I purchased a Thermaltake Pacific MX1 plus CPU waterblock, but when I got the MB and started looking at clearance, I'm not sure that waterblock is going to...

I have recently updated my old PC and now wondering if my current power supply can serve well enough. My current build is 12gb DDR 1600 RAM MSI GTX 970 - 4gb Intel Core i7 4770k (Haswell) 4000ghz (hasn't got an optimal cpu cooler yet) some hdd/ssd I am looking to either upgrade or downgrade my...

I was given a kraken m22 to put on my CPU, I already have a kraken x62 which cools the GPU. Currently I have both directly mounted the m22 pulls in air from the back and the x62 pulls air in from the front. the top fan is my exhaust...is it okay to be set up like this? or should my m22 be...

I was wondering does CPU coolers such as 212 evo works as exhaust fan, or i still need to put exhaust fan with 212 evo ?

Hey! I have a 2month old AMD ryzen 5 3600X - I know there's alot of posts about it and its temperatures but none really makes sense to me..sorry! i use CPU temp tracker when i play now, i play CALL OF DUTY:WARZONE and my CPU runs from 71C and peaks at 82C ish! Ive read that these do run at high...

I bought a hp omen 25l gaming pc 2 days ago and i have noticed quite high cpu and gpu temps. My gpu is an rtx 2060 one fan model and when at sustained 97-100 per cent usage seemed to settle on 82-83 degrees. My i5 10400f was also hitting similar temps but was not maxing out consistently so may...

So I'm planning upgrading from i7 7700 to i7 10700k, my current cpu cooler is Cooler Master Hyper TX3i. Do i need to upgrade it or will it work for the i7 10700k?

i build a gaming PC for a mate a few months ago and i only recently got him to get RivaTuner to monitor his temps. Are these temps normal/safe? i know the Ryzen wraith stealth cooler isn't the best but wasn't expecting these temps to be so high while gaming he's hes getting normally between...

CPU: i7-8700k Motherboard: ASUS PRIME Z370-A Case: Meshify C CPU Cooler: Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT Hey all, I'm currently trying to overclock my CPU but I'm having a lot of trouble keeping the temperatures down. When I try to overclock it and run Prime95, it spits out frequent errors and...

The be quiet pure rock slim has a 120W tdp while the i7 8700k has tdp of 95W. Is it enough to cool my cpu or should i get another one ?

I need to buy a new cooler for my CPU and this is my first time so I have a couple of questions about it. One of the coolers I'm looking at is the Hyper 212 Black Edition but there seem to be two of those with a huge price difference. The basic Black one costs double the price of the RGB black...

My 8700k temp just went too high those days with corsair h115i. Whenever I play games, the temperature will be above 90 degree easily even with 3000 RPM on pump and 1500 RPM on fans. It went about 100 degree when I watch streaming when the pump is on 2000 RPM and fans 800 RPM. The cooler...

My PC has some problems that date back to almost a year and a half ago. It randomly shuts off my monitor, keyboard, mouse, and everything else except for the LED lights in the case and the fans. It’s usually during when I play GTA V or do something like rendering a video in a video editing...

Sorry this is such a beginner question. I’m doing my first build, making a test bench before putting it in the case. I have a Corsair h60 cooler and I’m wondering what gives it power? I know I need to plug in the radiator plus fan but does it pull power from the 24 pin, 8 pin cpu, or something...

Is there a noticeable difference between lets say for example this https://photos.app.goo.gl/SRUQUyTtFtMGyoZf8 and something with a good name like cooler master ? Also how often do you guys change the paste on CPU and GPU ?

I have water cooling for everything. I am taking that out and just putting air cooling in. I don't want to have to take the motherboard out of the case. The mother board has 4 places to screw into to connect a cooling system. I would like to keep the best cooling I can with air that directly...

So long story short after meddling around in BIOS trying to fix one part of the PC the CPU fan won't stay on longer than a few minutes, almost always just a few seconds at the most. I have tried resetting BIOS, pulling the CMOS battery while the PC wasn't plugged in, cleaning the fan, and tried...

Hello. So I've noticed that my pc overtime got very slow. Couple days back I reset my pc. It somewhat helped to make it faster. But you cant compare it to the state when it was new. In that case I am sure that my pc lags because of the overheating. Although this never was an issue at the start...

Intel just replaced my i9 9700k with a step up to a i9 9900ks (long story but Intel does right by their customers or at least this one in this situation) but reading on the CPU I am worried about my current cooler given the high listed TDP and reported heat output. The CPU arrives tomorrow but I...
