Discussing possible PC limitations and temperature issues.
It depends on your project's requirements, but Phantom Spirit offers the best value. If it’s a budget-friendly option around £35 or $30-40, it’s likely the upgrade cooler you should consider.
The cooler resembles a Thermaltake UX100 model. It delivers 65W of cooling, whereas the Intel i7 11700KF has a 125W TDP. The cooler lacks sufficient capacity to support that processor. Additionally, the CPU automatically throttles or lowers its speed before powering down. Essentially, this cooler forces the CPU to perform as if it were a much weaker unit, creating a performance bottleneck.
