Hi
Looking for some advice. Upgrading a water cooling build. Current rig is over kill on water cooling. Currently has...
2 x 240 rads ( has 4 fans push)
1 x 360 rad (has 6 fans push pull)
1 x 560 rad (has 8 fans push pull)
2 x D5 pumps set low on a koolance dual pump res.
I'm not going for aesthetics.
I'm looking at a long over due upgrade and was thinking about going for the Intel 14900k.
Not sure what board yet. Although I've always bought Asus boards.
My question is after seeing various things on the net about this chip.
Q1. Are boards pretty much now with latest bios ready to accept this chip stable without much dialing in with adequate cooling?
Are the boards giving potential max performance without over doing it on voltage ?
Q2. Should my cooling be enough to tame this processor ?
Q3. Can anyone recommend an asus board (can be other brand if a good reason) that isn't a wallet killer?
Thanks
