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. 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. Cooling high-power, high-end-desktop (HEDT) processors like Intel's Core X series or AMD's Ryzen Threadrippers with an air cooler is a formidable task. Typically, cooler manufacturers will increase the size of an air cooler to boost its performance and the overall amount of heat it can handle. But the finite amount of space and overhead clearance inside a PC case sets limits on how large an extreme air cooler can be. Given the larger die size and ample power consumption of today's HEDT processors, there simply isn't much room for HEDT air coolers to grow much bigger.

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. 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.

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.

This is simply for general stuff, some YouTube and the occasional video edit (render time not critical)

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.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.\ 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. 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? 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. This is my latest revision, hoping I'm getting nearer to a balanced configuration, how does this shape up ?

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.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) AMD Ryzen 5 7600 Six Core CPU (4.0GHz-5.2GHz/38MB CACHE/AM5) CPU that's perfectly good enough for 1440p gaming 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. 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:
