It should be ok for light loads. The chip would throttle down if gets too hot.Hey All,
Sorry to Bump this necro thread, but I think my EVGA CLC 280 might be on its way out as I'm having loads of USB disconnect and reconnecting happening in windows. I tried reconnecting it to a different USB header and straight to a USB port same thing happens and my temps jumped up to 106c when it was literally idling at 5% CPU. There's a 5 year warranty on the AIO so I'm trying to see about RMA, in the interim as a temporary work around, do you think the Wraith Spire cooler from a 3600X would be sufficient with no overclocks and if I turn off PBO? I'm working on the thinking that the 5700X is a 65W CPU and the 3600X is a 95W CPU...
Any thoughts?
Agreed it will throttle a bit and the temps will approach the 90C mark I would assume but as a temporary solution it will work while you RMA.It should be ok for light loads. The chip would throttle down if gets too hot.
Mine is in an NCase N1 with a Noctua L12S and seems OK so far!how are you struggling to cool a 65w cpu? you using a passive cooler?
I am temporarily using a Wraith Stealth with a 5700x and with PBO disabled under 100% loads temperature gets to 83C which is within spec of 90C operating temp. So I should think a Wraith Spire would be OK temporarily too.in the interim as a temporary work around, do you think the Wraith Spire cooler from a 3600X would be sufficient with no overclocks and if I turn off PBO?

Need to buy a 5700X.
Started running a VMware machine and my 3300X is suffering.
I know but I'm tighter than two coats of white paint.Well, they are pretty cheap these days, its a good time to buy.
£230. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/amd-...hz-socket-am4-processor-retail-cp-3d1-am.html
No, that doesn’t help me now when I need more than 4 cores.Wait for next gen stuff to come out in few months. Should drop prices on last gen stuff. Im hoping they pull out a zen4 cpu for am4
I didn’t. This is someone else’s thread. I was just passing a casual comment.then why even make a thread about it? just buy it.
What are your temps like?
Mine at stock cooled with a Vetroo V5 CPU cooler hits 57C in Cinebench R23, and 62C in BF 2042. Idles at around 33C low fan speed setting. It was 60C in Cinebench the other day.
Cinebench should heat the CPU more than any game which suggests I still have an air flow problem despite changing my case. Then again 62C while gaming is nothing to worry about.
GPU about 60C as well.
how are you struggling to cool a 65w cpu? you using a passive cooler?
Temps reached 65C both CPU and GPU just now in BF 2042, must be warmer today. Happy with the performance and don’t want to throw any more heat into the case.Definitely sounds like you have a good bit of headroom with that V5 cooler as your temps look very solid indeed. Although if you’re comfortable with the performance then there’s obviously no need.
