Wow!

Stupid question: I care barely cool a Ryzen 7700 non-X (65W TDP) with the same cooler, but you use a 7800x3d (120W TDP). Makes me wonder if there's something fundamental in setting up things that I'm missing or doing wrong.

In the recent build, I tested the temperature of 7700 using the AXP90-X36 cooler. With the power limit unlocked, running the AIDA64 FPU test is 90 degrees at 110W power, with a frequency of 4.7GHz and a room temperature of 25 degrees. Cinebench R23 10min test got 18600 pts. I think it's very sufficient for non extreme loads.

@sandyware is the GPU only getting power from the riser?

Or is there some 8-pin magic going on behind the scenes?

I have a question - maybe it was explained and I just blinded it, but how do you connect that riser to the x600 mobo?

I think you must be referring to that picture:

Since the M.2 slot can only provide around 7W, the yellow and black wires we see above are certainly helping in raising the power to match the 75W of a regular PCIe slot.

But 75W is not is not enough for an RTX 4060Ti.

The latter is then also getting power from the MeanWell PSU directly, that should be the black wires we see on the bottom right of the picture.
Connecting the PSU to the GPU could lead to the 'always on' problem, but this is not the case with this specific hardware as mentioned earlier in this thread.

The riser is actually an ADT R43UF 4.0 M.2 to PCIe adapter, attached to the M.2 port on the back of the X600 board.

Thanks. Didn't know these have an M.2 slot in the back as well. To be honest, there's a 4060 from Manli, that's little less than 150mm in length, so it can fit behind these small mobos with ease and could make something like a Velka 2. It would leave more space for the psu.
