Hey, upfront sorry for my english, not my mother tongue, hope it will be understandable.
I put together 13600K, Asus Strix B760I, NH-L12 GE, G.Skill 32GB 6400-CL32 DDR 5 and a RX 6800 Reference in a Ghost S1 MKIII without additional hats. Tried a 120 mm fan swap on the CPU cooler but it collides with the mainboard heatspreader and the ram. Also trying to avoid options like custom spine or flipping upside down.
First i undervolted CPU and GPU, but GPU will be replaced by a nvidia card after the refresh release next year anyway to use gsnyc on my monitor. Ram subtimings will be optimized maybe next days but main problem is max temp of the CPU reaching > 90C. Offset is set to -0.180 for cores and cache, what has already greatly reduced consumption.
At least one 120mm fan is installed at the bottom pushing air out and I think some 40mm will be added topside, but without a tophat. I hope this will also improve temps a little bit.
Here linkToPost I found some additional tips like swapping the CPU fan to another with higher rpm and installing a contact frame. Higher rpm sounds reasonable, but I have to find some more experiences about the whole contact frame topic. Especially since I don't know how much it is influenced by the board manufacturer for example.
Bottom line the CPU temps are indeed very high, but my use case (gaming, coding, office) is actually not really comparable to the stress tests like cinebench or prime. Maybe encoding a movie from time to time is the closest scenario. Settings are stable so far but improving temps is always desirable I guess.
Thx for any further tips or experiences ^^
