Thank you for focusing on my issue. I was just running a (albeit not incredibly demanding) game in 4k with RTX at locked 60fps and the temperature peaked around 55°.
I think I've partially solved my issue with custom curves, though. I will look at new fans in the near future (as this is a loud...
Right, I understand the benchmarking approach and the metrics involved, but two people have told me that the Frostflow 150, specifically, is not sufficient (one even telling me a number - 65w). As its a PCS own brand type scenario, there is no detailed information online about this cooler, I...
Thanks for the additional comments.
I have experimented with curves already, and it seems fine so far, cooling wise. My idle temp is sitting around 42° with 44% fan. It has not gone over 75° when it's doing something intense so far. It is, however, making too much noise for me when hitting even...
I agree about Noctua coolers.
This cooler is good for 65W? Why did they put 180W on the build page? That's the only reason I selected that one, comparing the TDPs.
Hi SpyderTracks, thanks for your response.
I think there's a little confusion - I'm not talking about replacing the whole cooler unit, I'm talking about modifying the Frostflow 150 by replacing its two fans with new silent ones of equal performance. There just isn't much information elsewhere...
Hi there,
I just received a new AM5 desktop which I wanted to run as quietly as possible. To this end, I went for a Fractal silent case (with 3 quiet fans). As several of the CPU cooling options came with case-attached fan units, I went for an on-heatsink setup, which was ample for cooling...
