[SOLVED] Will this build get too hot during the Summer, or will it be alright?

[Nameidk]

Hello, I'd simply like to ask if this build would work out fine in the Summer:

CPU: INTEL i7 9700K 8-CORE

CPU-COOLER: COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 LED

GPU: ASUS RTX2080 8GB DUAL

MOTHERBOARD: ASUS TUF Z370-II PLUS GAMING

RAM: 16GB CORSAIR 3000MHZ

SSD: 512GB M.2 NVMe X4 (INTEL 660P) + 3 TB HDD

POWER SUPPLY: CORSAIR TX 650W GOLD 80+ MODULAR

CASE: NZXT H500 (BLACK)

Thanks in advance!

You'll want a better CPU cooler, the 212 really isn't enough, plus you'll want something better eventually for overclocking but what is the average ambient temp in the room you'll be playing?

The Hyper212 is an older model not really ment for todays high tdp chips.

I would get a better cooler.

....so....on the beach at noon? In an air conditioned house or apartment? In a non-air conditioned house or apartment?

I never had air conditioning till about eight years ago. I never had issues with my PCs, but they weren't gaming PCs. So the temps outside ranged up to 90 and 100 F (up to 37 c), windows of the home were wide open, without problems.

It is true that the typical ideal room temp is 70F or 21 c so if your house is hot you'll be circulating warmer air through the PC. But whether that means you'll run automatically 18 c hotter, I'm not so sure. For one thing, the system will likely respond to increased heat by turning on the fans sooner and running them at faster rpm.

My room will probably be around 20 to 25 c in the Summer (max 30). Do you guys think the hyper 212 led would be enough then?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

No. You need a bigger cooler like a Dark rock pro 4

 

[Nameidk]

Hm, would a Thermalright Macho suffice?

 

[SgtScream]

To put into perspective - The hyper 212 evo isn't enough for a 6600k under full load. I was running that cpu on a test bench not to long ago.

Alright, thanks for that, but do you think a Thermalright Macho would be alright?

If you're going to pay that much for the Macho, go with the best in that price range:

Yeah, but just asking: the thermalright macho would be a much better choice than the 212, right?

 

[SgtScream]

Not sure. But you can look at the wattage rating for each cpu cooler under hardware specifications.

 

[WildCard999]

I second the Scythe Mugen 5, it will keep that CPU within safe limits and is quiet.
