Hi all guys, I'm a new user, I apologize in advance for my bad English, I'm Italian, sorry.

I immediately explain the "problem"
I have a custom loop with two 360mm radiators (one of which 60mm with push pull fans), Ekwb Kinetic pump. I am only cooling my CPU, the GPU is air cooled.
The liquid temperature is around 18/20 degrees for light use and reaches a maximum of 25 degrees with video games. Temperature of my room 17/18 degrees.

They are aware that the new Ryzen 7000 are CPUs that warm up a lot, but cannot understand how a forum user (Matt B) manages to keep the temperatures much lower than mine. He told me that he only uses a 360mm aio with liquid metal, without Delid.

He manages to keep 46 degrees with the 160+ Watt CPU, it is incredible.

video:

I am using the Arctic MX-6 thermal paste
My CPU is limited to 175 watts with manual enabled PBO and Optimizer CCD0 -20 and CCD1 -25 curves
5.5GHz clock limit
Matt instead 5.85ghz
If I enable Medium Boost Load then unlock the clock up to 5.85GHz the tension is very high (1.4/1.45V) and I have temperatures ranging from 60/65/68 degrees
There is a big difference between me and him.

My question is: how do you have those temperatures? Is it possible that liquid metal is so important?

C'è un buon miglioramento dall'uso di metallo liquido rispetto a pasta per qualsiasi CPU.

È molto meglio di qualsiasi pasta.

Non sono sicuro che ti farà ottenere 20 gradi in meno su una CPU non delidrata, ma sarà inferiore.
Thank you for answering me. I didn't know that liquid metal could make such a big difference. However, the mystery remains of how he manages to keep the temperatures so low. I don't think he lives on a mountain in -10 degrees, lol.
