Unable to cool the CPU? Here are ways to enhance cooling.
After swapping out my PSU with bad corrosion from the summer, I switched to a Corsair model offering very stable power delivery. This allowed my 7920x chip to reach 4.8GHz. Even with water cooling and a complex setup, my loop temperature stayed around 20°C. To prevent throttling during full-core loads for BoOniC, I reduced TJMAX to 90°C. I'm already experimenting with liquid metal and Artic Silver 5 between the IHS and heat sink, but I'm unsure if it's the best option since some cores overheat while others don't. I don’t recall the exact water block model, but it seems to be an EK gold type. Any tips would be appreciated!
The only "7920X" chip I'm acquiring is the i9-7920X, which reaches a maximum turbo boost of 4.3GHz (or up to 4.4GHz with certain updates). If you push it beyond that to 4.8GHz and enable some all-core boost, I anticipate it will run significantly hotter than anticipated. Additionally, the chip doesn't experience thermal throttling unless it can't sustain base speeds. Turbo boost performance isn't assured.
Oh I know it is more than it's stock, thus why I'm having issues removing heat . It's artic silver 5 between waterblock and IHS. The force is already alot because I'm pretty sure the ihs is a bit domed. I could do what they call lapping but I don't want to wreck it.
I don't understand, but I'm really frustrated with that movie series. My daughter was crying herself to sleep last night because she wanted to watch it, even though we're super busy over the holidays.
