Here is the spec I have created I'm not a expert in pc's & never had liquid cooling before so thought I would share it here to see what other users feel. Both of these factors have vastly expanded the options available for keeping PCs and chips cool. And that explosion of gear has been great for experienced system builders, while creating some confusion for those new to the scene. In this article, we've combined a brief tutorial with a list of some of the best CPU coolers now available. You'll want to read closely to ensure you get one that will work in your system. PSU, its a known issue that it recommends some shoddy numbers. It doesnt take into account a system under full load and allow headroom on it, or future upgrades. If you want longevity, overspec the PSU so it doesnt get worn out and it can take future GPU upgrades (which have greater power consumption) Year Silver Warranty (1 Year Collect & Return, 1 Year Parts, 3 Year Labour) Personally I don't think the expensive warranties are worthwhile; I understand if you disagree... Thanks for your reply, I'm going to use it to run flight simulator mostly in VR and some moderate video editing, know what you mean about the case, it would be a trade off for having the 3070 Ti, just received the full spec from PCS.
Unique URL to re-configure: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/saved-configurations/amd-am5-pc/KhUTKtm2yE/ The PCS case you had chosen would of had poor thermals and you would end up shortening the lifespan of the components inside. Not only does Corsair's iCUE H100i Elite Capellix cooler have an enticing aesthetic design, it also has one of the lowest-rated noise production levels that we've seen on a CPU water cooler. To be fair, the cooler can get a bit loud when the fans and pump are operating at full speed—when everything's revved up, Corsair says, the noise can climb to 37dBA. At ideal temperatures, however, the Elite Capellix is rated for as little as 10dBA, which is practically inaudible assuming the number holds in your specific build. I'm mainly using the system for streaming and playing mostly fps gaming, nothing crazy, at 1080p/1440p. Not particularly interested in OC'ing the cpu as my needs dont require it. If you wanted to save some money you could transfer your Windows license if you aren't going to be using it on your current PC.
This is my latest revision, hoping I'm getting nearer to a balanced configuration, how does this shape up ? Again... you're still misunderstanding. There's only so much I can dive into this so we're almost at the point where you can choose to believe me... or not. The CPU cooler I am using right now is Corsair H100i V2 Hydro Series High Performance and when i am playing AAA games, the CPU Temps never go pass 60 D. So I don't think my CPU is overheating. Thanks for your reply, much appreciate the advice, Taking your suggestions on board I've come up with this config.
AMD Ryzen 5 7600 Six Core CPU (4.0GHz-5.2GHz/38MB CACHE/AM5) CPU that's perfectly good enough for 1440p gaming The previous generation of intel supported up to 2400 as default. This didn't in any way stop the motherboards from supporting XMP RAM up to 4800Mhz. The same is true now. This is the default setting for the RAM. Will 3000 work... sure, but you'll be taking a performance hit. If you're happy with that performance hit then that's up to yourself but our advice is never going to suggest that you do. There's always a case to be made with 3200 vs 3600 (due to the CAS latency) but that's a bit of a moot point as the higher frequency is still better and there's little in the way of money between them. Gaming PCs Liquid Series® PCs Video Editing PCs Pro Audio Computers Professional Workstations Desktop PCs Thanks for the advice, opted for a keeping a higher speed secondary ssd as that's where my flight sim install is going. Intel 12600 on a prime motherboard would of meant the CPU wasnt properly supported to run at its proper capacity, prime boards are basically bottom spec motherboards.Inside a PC, a stereo amplifier, or a smartphone, one red line runs through them all: The circuits inside generate heat, and something's got to keep things cool. The hardware used to keep PC components from overheating has undergone a revolution over the last decade, with once-rare liquid coolers now widely used in high-performance desktops and some cooling hardware playing a key cosmetic role in show-off gaming rigs and custom builds. Who on earth are Nano review? Do you know them? Are their opinions well regarded? Do you think they are looking out for your best interests? This covers the changes we would recommend. Had to substitute the CPU with the 3600 as 3600x isn't available on the config.
I'm keen on keeping the 3800X as far as I can gather Microsoft Flight Simulator works best with a minimum of 6 cores, so a little headroom should help, with this in mind I've changed the cooling option to the PCS FrostFlow 200 Series High Performance CPU Cooler, do you think would this be enough cooling for the 3800X ?. Don't want to install liquid cooling as it requires maintenance and there is a risk of liquid loss. When you put 3600Mhz RAM into the motherboard along with the CPU you can either run at the default 3200mhz speed, or you can turn on the XMP profile. XMP stands for eXtreme Memory Profile (EMP was already taken). When you enable this, it applies predefined settings to the system and allows the system to utilise the maximum standard of the RAM provided. This is simply for general stuff, some YouTube and the occasional video edit (render time not critical)Coolers, you pair to the CPU, intel tend to run hot, so you need a powerful cooler from the start, generally speaking CPU's these days all benefit from liquid coolers, heat production is steadily climbing as they become more and more powerful. This air cooler is an unusual entry in our list—the only one not built by a familiar industry leader. The Alseye DR900 is the lowest-priced cooler in this group, but its features and value make it an enticing option if you're working on a budget build for which you want equal parts bling and cooling. The former flair comes in the form of three standard 90mm PWM fans with RGB LED lighting. My biggest confusion items are the motherboard, power supply wattage and the appropriate CPU cooler. As with everything in life. You can pay less for different levels of product. PSUs are absolutely no different. You've asked for help with a system to last 10 years and then wanted to save massively on the very item that powers it. Do you genuinely believe that a PSU with a 3 year warranty is going to last 10 years at full tilt without any issues? The longevity of these items is based on the quality of them to begin with. The RMx comes, as default, with a much longer warranty simply because of how a high end product it is. It runs with 0 fan RPM as well. With your uses I doubt it'll come on. The actual product itself is seriously good. All us enthusiasts have them and any outliers on the forum tend to wish they had listened and got them to begin with.
Before going any further, if you're a PC-building beginner, you'll want to read our deep-dive PC Cooling 101 guide to learn everything you need to know about CPU coolers. We'll summarize a few points from that article here, but won't be covering it in anywhere near the same depth. Einmalige URL zur erneuten Konfiguration: https://www.pcspecialist.de/gespeicherte-konfigurationen/intel-home-office-pc-V/sGvZPPQaSA/ It's a common mistake to assume that any water cooler is inherently better than any air cooler. Liquid coolers do have some undeniable advantages, but a specific cooler's design is critically important, and some air coolers perform better than some water coolers. Generally speaking, you can expect bigger coolers of either design to outperform smaller ones, simply because larger coolers generally have more metal within to spread out absorbed heat and can typically mount more or bigger fans. Both of these factors contribute to more efficient cooling.\ TDP is just plain lies nowadays. This is the value of the CPU when it isn't boosting. These chips will boost indefinitely when the temperatures and power limits are being adhered to. The 12600k can easily push 200w. The coolers ability is going to be massively hampered when you put it in a case. Putting that case into a cupboard.... isn't going to increase efficiency, it's going to turn the case into an oven. With any AIO you're able to expel that air as part of the function, which is an absolute no brainer.If the PC just isn't working I'm less sure about what to suggest. If cleaning your PC included unplugging things, it might be that something was simply plugged in wrong, which is very easy to do. I have concerns about water cooled CPU coolers as water and electricity don't tend to mix well if ever there was a leak to occur but there are not many air cooler options, will the PCS Frostflow 200 be adequate or will this cause issues with the CPU. As stated before ths PC will not be used for any gaming. I have gone for 2 1TB SSD as I would install my music software on drive C: and the data files on drive D: and also the 1TB drive is not a lot more than a 512GB drive. Unfortunately that build won't do a great job of 1440p: the 3060 just isn't strong enough. Here's where I'd start looking: Not sure about the 3200MHz support on the intel chip... looking at the specs i'd say your right, but im a novice i'd imagine he's seen something I havent or i'm missing something, I know the motherboard supports 3600MHz no issue. Looking at your build, the only thing that I can really see is your PSU seems very underpowered, for this build I’d probably personally suggest 850+.
Great Deal
