9700x eco mode cooling options

[WARburton]

Hi guys and gals,
if i put my 7900x into eco mode for gaming, could it be cooled with a 120mm aio or a low profile cooler 70mm max hight?
all the system will ever do is game.

ive seen a new ITX case that i like but cooing options are very limited, and i dont know if it would work

Thermalright's AXP120 X67 is a very capable low profile cooler. It comes with a 15mm fan which puts the height at 52mm and in that configuration Tom's Hardware found that it could handle almost 200w which is fantastic for a low profile cooler. What I would do though is stick a 25mm thick fan on it to maximise the cooling. I had one of these on the wifes 5600x and it did a admirable job despite the pc being only a couple of feet away from the living room radiator.

Assuming non garbage cooler, yes easily. Even in non eco mode. Zen is very efficient.

im running my 9800X3D on a ThermalRight Peerless Assassin 120 and the performance is still great, with the temps peaking low / mid 60's in ECO mode.
