Update: All the hardware is here now. Just waiting for an AM4 upgrade kit for the NH-L9i to arrive, which should be tomorrow or at the start of next week.The testing configuration will consist of:CPU: R7 1700CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9iMotherboard: Asrock AB350 Gaming ITX (it's the newer one with the thinner heatsinks)RAM: 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance LPXPSU: Corsair SF450Storage: 1x Samsung 850 Evo 512gb, 1x WD 1TBI'll use two different GPUs for the tests: an EVGA GTX1050ti 4gb and a GTX1080 FE. I will use a riser cable from LiHeat (special thanks to [USER=1329]@yawacool[/USER] for providing samples!) for the testing rig.I plan on running Prime 95 for CPU temperatures and Unigine Heaven for GPU temperatures for a few hours each, with sensors beneath each disk and one below the motherboard. Are there any other tests you want to see? I have most of the AAA videogames if you are interested in anything in particular.
