Noctua NH-D15 Dual Radiator Quiet CPU Cooler with two NH-A15 Fans

Assured as good as an AIO system

done the 4.8 settings as per the above vid, intelburn is ok, but cpu says 100% usage and only 67'C average temp

Run prime95, few seconds 90'C and crash.

Why are they so different?

rodders · 4 Dec 2018 at 18:27

well 4.8 on intel burn is ok, 5.0 wont even boot. Put voltage up to 1.32 and still wouldn't boot.

Happy to stay on 4.8, as its a bit dodge with prime 95. Will try to tweak a bit more and see what I can do

Don't know much about HT, will that loose me performance in programmes like Lightroom?

Needs delidding

This is just to cool more?

I'm at 1.3 v core currently

Knew I.should have gone AIO

rodders · 6 Dec 2018 at 16:25

p95 26.6 runs much better

hitting about 82/83 on full load. Best not to push further?

Probably not much gain over 4.8. Don't want to go down the delidding route. Running at 4.8 should increase Lightroom performance nicely!

I had AIO on my last build, planned to on this until someone change my mind, doh. Kinda trust people as I don't know masses about all the components, but I guess they aren't always right. Oh well, live and learn. Maybe an Xmas present to myself lol.

Then 5.0!!!!

rodders · 7 Dec 2018 at 16:04

yeah gaming mines around 30/40'C, prime95 its HOT, lol

I haven't made any large Lightroom batch exports yet. Wonder how hot that will get..........

That AIO isn't doing much more than my air, but you are at 4.9 and I'm 4.8.
Thought there'd be a bit more difference though
