Hi, I'm building my first pc and would like to know which cooler would you recommend for a i5 9600k. I've never OCed a CPU before so, if I do, I won't push it to it's max capacitiy. The case allows coolers up to 175 mm, so there shouldn't be a problem in that matter.

I'm a first time PC builder and was wondering what a good cooler for an i5 9600k would be. I often run long operations through Adobe products (LR, PS, PR) and CaptureOne and am hoping to have a constant overclock of 4.6ghz without exceeding 75C. I've heard many great things about Noctua...

Hey guys, just recently I have built a brand new PC and have a come across the problem of all my programs freezing for no longer than 4 seconds at a time, when this happens I can still move my cursor and interact with other programs but once I click them they freeze for a short time as well. I...

I've read that it isnt necessary to connect the 4 pin to the CPU power on the mobo as long as I have the 8 pin connected. But since my new MSI MPG Z390 GAMING PRO CARBON and i5 9600k won't post anything on the screen im wondering if I have to have both 8pin and 4pin connected to the "CPU_PWR" to...

Hello. I am thinking about building a rig with the specs below and I am pretty new to this OC thing. It is mainly for gaming and I wonder if the Cryorig H7 can handle 4.8Ghz OC'd 9600k with decent temps ( preferably under 65 ). If it can't which cooler should I go for ? Thank you. Gigabyte Z390...
