Hi

I am looking to build a new system inside a Node 202 with the following components but am unsure if heat might be a concern.

i7 10700k + Cryorig C7 Low Profile
MSI MEG Z490-I UNIFY, Intel Z490 Motherboard
32GB DDR4 3600MHZ Vengeance (2 x16gb)
Corsair SF750
1 x 1tb SSD (Samsung 860 Evo)
1 x 500gb SSD (Samsung 840 Evo)
Nvidia GTX 3080 or use my old MSI GTX 1070ti


Can anyone comment on whether this is too high a spec to put inside a Node 202 or would this be ok?

I have not purchased these bits yet and just wondered if anyone else has temperature issues with the node 202.

Thought I would ask here before buying these as some people may have experiences with the Node 202 already

Many thanks for any replies.

I did not play with any 10th series yet, do not see a point in upgrading neither 8700k nor 9900 just yet. But I do have the non-K i9 9900. You cannot increase performance on it (you still can up-to the maximum boost) but you can reduce power and heat as much as you like. I undervolted it and limited the current so it does not spike above 160W. It still goes up to 4.9GHz.

Cool!

I am not experienced in messing about with Frequencys, Voltages and such like so I,m a little scared to mess with them for fear of burning the CPU so I figured to go with a 65w CPU seems like the safest option for me.
