8700k + h500i + a good cryogenic air cooler
i am looking for a cryorig cooler that could cool an 8700k and keep it under 75 or 80 degrees celsius while under load. it needs to fit NZXT H500i and needs to be compatible with asus strix z370-e. It does not need to be overclocked but i would like to know if a cryorig cooler that is compatible with the parts above and if it could keep it under 75 degrees under load while at 4ghz or something
The performance can differ between games. Occasionally, overclocking can boost FPS in certain titles, while in others it may have no effect. It largely depends on the specific games you're playing. Generally, stock clocks around 8700k are sufficient to run most games smoothly at 1080p with a 1070. Even if some games improve slightly with overclocking, the difference will be minimal. We're usually talking about around 140fps versus 150fps. Going above 100fps is rarely noticeable.

Its hardto tell if it would fit without the internal clearance height as cryorig coolers are pretty tall
Cryorig H5 and H7 are suitable for this situation, though they aren't ideal for large overclocking. A 4ghz setup should work fine, and they should manage a 4.5 and above. However, the R1 isn't compatible with that configuration. I prefer a full tower because the 8700k requires significant power like a big cooler and ample airflow for extreme clocks.

Unfortunately, the R1 won't fit this case. I prefer a full tower because the 8700k requires significant power like a big cooler and ample airflow for extreme clocks. Overclocking would likely improve performance, and it might be beneficial for 1080p high-end gaming with a 1070 or Ti graphics card.
