About this deal

Thermaltake: Water 3.0 Riing RGB 360, 280, 240, Red 280, 140 - Water 3.0 Ultimate - Extreme S, Extreme, Pro, Performer - Water 2.0 Extreme, Pro, Performer The manufacturer specifications are just about the same for both options; with the only exception being the RGB compatibility, and, of course, the price. Instead of the LED-lit infinity mirror rings of the X63’s pump head’s cap, the Z63 has a 2.36-inch (60 mm) LCD display with a 320 x 320 pixel display resolution. This screen can display 24-bit color, and can be used for either practical reasons, like showing system metrics like the CPU temperature, or stylistic purposes, like displaying your favorite pics or gifs of choice. Got my brand new (what else) 5800x3d as an upgrade to my previous 3700x. Extremely happy with the performance result so far, which is mostly testing Red dead redemption 2 and TW: Warhammer 2, in addition to a few 3dmark tests. What an improvement.

really? It's a 2-year old chip. You know games are still coming out on PS4 and XBONE with 90% of gamers being totally fine with their performance and those bulldozer cores are literally half the speed of Zen 2. Would there be any benefit to lapping down the cold plate on the AIO? Lap down the IHS on the CPU? Maybe look at getting some liquid metal tim instead of a regular thermal paste? That's a space heater and all condensed to a 40mm/square single surface area to pull thermals from, with the addition of transistor density and single core complex or CCX. This would be a cooler chip if AMD ran 2 CCX with 4 cores each, but they where able to maximize the TDP envelope with a single CCX. Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/ OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

The temps seem way off from what I would expect them to be. The American PC hardware manufacturer, NZXT, is know for making some of the best performing – and stylish – AIO liquid CPU coolers in the market. They are easy to install, keep CPU temperatures and noise levels at a minimum, and are built with quality materials for a respectable level of durability. be quiet! and Fractal Design insist on keeping noise levels down to a minimum, EK tends to put the emphasis on maximum performance, and Corsair typically finds a happy medium. You can't really go wrong with any of the aforementioned, but if you want an AIO that looks particularly swish, NZXT's Kraken offerings are well worth closer inspection.

CPU: Ryzen 9 5900 Cooler: EVGA CLC280 Motherboard: Gigabyte B550i Pro AX RAM: Kingston Hyper X 32GB 3200mhz is a very hot CPU. It's not the power draw that makes it hard to cool like it is on Intel CPUs (though even they suffer from this a bit), it's the fact that its very thermally dense and has a lot of thermal resistance. The 5800X was already notorious for being a PITA to cool, the 5800X3D just makes that even worse since the 3D vCache acts as a thermal insulator to the CPU. Going up to a 360mm AIO is advisable for one of those CPUs because they just have a cooler cold plate and thus have an easier time extracting heat. It's not like the chip actually need the cooling capacity, it's just that the extra cooling capacity means you can extract the heat from that chip much easier. This All-in-One (AIO) liquid cooler is ready for high performance CPU's with the ability to fit in most cases. With two 140mm Aer RGB 2 radiator fans it adds RGB lighting while keeping CPU performance high and keeping temperatures down.RX 590, 580, 570, 480, 470, R9 390X**, 390*, 380X**, 380, 290X**, 290**, 285*, 280X**, 280**, 270X, 270, R7 370, HD7970**, 7950**, 7870, 7850, 6970, 6950, 6870, 6850, 6790, 6770, 5870, 5850, 5830 Source: Rich Edmonds / Windows Central (Image credit: Source: Rich Edmonds / Windows Central) Who it's for There's plenty to love about the Kraken X63 RGB, but there's also a little to dislike about the AIO. Firstly, it's a little on the pricey side. Considering this is a 280mm radiator solution, you can easily find more affordable AIOs out there. But with the X63 you do get fancy RGB lighting and the 7th gen Asetek pump. This All-in-One (AIO) liquid cooler is ready for high performance CPU's with the ability to fit in most cases. With two 140mm Aer P radiator fans, keep CPU performance high while keeping temperatures down. The Kraken X-3 and Z-3 series are available now for the US only (everywhere else in early February).
