@stefan33 no because hdplex ac-dc adapter outputs 19V while the g-unique dc-dc psu can only handle 12V

@Vittra AMD Ryzen has 24 PCI-E lanes (http://wccftech.com/amd-ryzen-7-1800x-1700x-official-launch/). The split for the x370 chipset 16x for graphics, 4x for the chipset, and 4x for nvme. What will be interesting to see is if x300 chipset changes that around as the chipset doesn't do much.

LukeD, you didn't convert the CPU Idle temps after the 1st test, but thank you :).

Yeah I agree that Bitwit's setup isn't the same, but what I think is important is looking at these different configurations to see how a certain cooling setup effects each component. Seeing as the GPUs are the component that is running the hottest, I would like to see if open shrouds can solve...

Awesome job LukeD, looks amazing! I'm wondering if making the GPU panel have more perforation would make running open shroud coolers a better option than blowers. It looks like when running air throttling is occurring on the GPU, but you have additional headroom on the CPU side even with that...
