Thank you for sharing your build, the beige and walnut looks really nice.
Sorry about that, in all the cases we've sold its the first time this has ever happened, I must have been having a bad day in the office.
I've updated the files for the Pico adapter to a wider hole. This is the adapter you are referring to I think:
That is certainly an aggressive fan curve!
These temperatures are really low to be fair, at 100% load it would be perfectly acceptable for your CPU to be hovering around 70C - 80C or even 90C, the Intel CPU's don't start thermal throttling until they reach 100C. My suggestion for a more comfortable lower noise system would be to ease off your fan curves, you have plenty of headroom to do so.
If you want to lower your system noise then something like this may help:
- <40 C: 20% speed
- 40-50 C: 30% speed
- 50-70 C: 50% speed
- >70 C: 100% speed
The NH-L12S is overkill for the 8700T so you can afford to run a much softer curve, the example above is tuned for silence under normal to moderate usage, but under high load the fans will kick in. Your CPU may run a little warmer, but if your sitting under 50C - 60C for most the stuff you are doing I wouldn't worry about it.
