Also if you go air cooling and are confident with your abilities, consider delidding to drop temps. more (5 to 20C). If you go air cooling I would assume it is on the basis of long term stability, so don't use liquid metal either. Also invest in a nice PSU (gold minimum) with your peak load pulling only 75% of the rated max wattage
Edit: Like most things look at components real-world testing figures, in this case, wattage, as opposed to TDP when planning
- formerly_proven 6y agoTR is a nine die CPU that is pretty difficult to delid and the improvement is minimal, nowhere near "5 to 20 C". It's not a 7700K.
- bicknyers 6y agoYeah to be fair I was basing my numbers on past projects namely Intel. I haven't looked at TR specifically just offered up the suggestion for those who have never heard of it to look into
- eightysixfour 6y agoRyzen CPUs are soldered, delidding has minimal impact.
- bicknyers 6y agoMy mistake, I thought Ryzen CPUs were still bonded with silicone and a ??? grade paste on the IHS
- formerly_proven 6y agoTo be honest I can't recall any AMD CPUs that weren't soldered... apart from those that didn't have an IHS in the first place ;) Intel was just like "we can save 4 $ BOM cost on a 500 $ part there" with their 4th-9th generation of CPUs. No thermal headroom? No problem.
