I'm upgrading to an AMD 5800K, it will arrive from Newegg eventually. But I was wondering if my current cooling is good enough. I have the stock heatsink (This), but the fan has been replaced with a krypton KR01 fan onto the stock heatsink.
The CPU is 100W and the fan and heatsink are rated for 95W. Can I get away with this? I read that wattage isn't a good indicator of heat. Will my setup properly cool my CPU, maybe eventually with overclocking?
Thank you.
