The Meshify C works well, but the issue lies with the 212 Evo—it's clearly not powerful enough. It's a budget cooler meant for midrange Ryzen 5/i5 processors. For better heat management, consider an NH-U12S or an AIO liquid cooler.
Sure, I'll adjust that for you. Let me know if you'd like any specific changes!
When running on both GPU and CPU, the GPU's excess heat will quickly overload the cooler.
You're having some issues with your i9's performance under load. It seems your cooler isn't providing enough cooling, especially during stress tests. Have you checked your idle temperatures? If you were in your shoes, you'd likely pause mining until you upgrade to a more suitable cooler.
It was in the 60s when mining became prominent. I think I'll update it in November.
The 212 Evo performs reasonably well in cooling, though it tends to get noisy. Playing in the 80s during gaming and reaching 100°C at full load isn’t ideal for a 130W system. Make sure the fan is properly mounted and functioning; silent fan curves might be active. I previously ran 180W on this unit with temperatures below 90°C, but it was still quite loud. Your case likely provides sufficient airflow for both GPU and CPU cooling. GDDR6x can get very hot during mining, staying under 105°C is normal. Most users aim to keep temps under 100 or 95°C, though the exact limit feels arbitrary. Personal preference matters—staying below 105°C is generally recommended.

Various chips are produced in distinct ways, with newer models generally offering significantly higher safety thresholds than earlier versions. Specific details about your GPU's specifications are usually available on its official site. The amount of VRAM in your graphics card is capped at 105 units of safety. Enhanced ventilation is always advantageous when feasible. Organizing cables neatly and positioning fans effectively inside a case can greatly improve airflow without any expense. If your front panel restricts airflow, taking it off can be an excellent solution. During mining sessions, I'd focus on maintaining lower temperatures even if it means increased noise levels.
I suggest running it at a reduced power setting and replacing the drive rather than investing 70-80 USD to extract every last bit.
