    Other Advice needed - air cooling for a 3900X at stock

    I ordered the Macho 120 Rev. B last week. First impression is quite good - installation of the backplate took some time (and the included manual features very small pictures - you can find a better manual here (it's for the Rev. A but it looks identical)). Cinebench R20 @ 142 W (10 minutes...

    Other Advice needed - air cooling for a 3900X at stock

    I'll do that tomorrow. No idea how you found these ones. 😃 Yes, but I've got zero experience with these. As far as I know, some pumps cause noises and corrosion is a thing (copper - aluminium). Starting at 80€ (up to 160€) and having a limited lifetime. Might be okay for some people but this...

    The Quad Lumi doesn't seem to be suited for the task: Seems to be out of production - but the Thermalright Macho 120 Rev. B seems to be quite similiar: 5 heatpipes, 200W TDP, 46€. Nice, I read about it before but didn't notice it was that small. 1 heatpipe less than the Macho means 11€ less...

    Thx, the Assassin King 120 Mini looks interesting - but I didn't found any offer. Nothing in Europe or on AliExpress or ... Any idea where to get? I mean it's cheap, might be worth a try. The Assassin King 120 (Plus) is tempting - 154 mm might fit exactly. Same problem - where to get it?

    Other Advice needed - air cooling for a 3900X at stock

    Hey guys, I some need help finding a good air cooler for my Ryzen 3900X. It's the first time for me totally starting from scratch and I do have to admit I wasn't really prepared to handle the heat output of this CPU (140-145W while stress testing). In the past I usually worked with left over...

    CPU Problem with my 3900x

    Same situation here. Got a 3900X recently and it's always quite warm. There are official statements saying this is totally okay (just found the one for Ryzen 5000, there's another post regarding 3000 I think) nethertheless it's a little bit much for the Wraith Prism because I don't want it to be...
