That looks like I need a bigger CPU cooler to get all that heat out faster.

Or just get an AIO intake setup for your CPU like most computer enthusiasts. Who even air cools their CPU anymore?

Once you run the numbers AIOs are just not much better than the good Noctua and Be Quiet coolers, and they last about 3x longer.

5-7 years isn't long enough for an AIO cooler? So you need cooler that lasts 15 years minimum?

Oh sorry it was the 9900k. Slickdeals

I think the 10700 (non K) for $300 is better. The 5-9% boost you get from overclocking the 10700k is not worth the $100 extra for the 10700k.

Now that i think about it - i dont think this will fit accurately in my p3 if i use it for water cooling due to how far out the 3090 will stick out to where the pump goes. May need to get a p5 i think they have a bit more wiggle room.

The community rep on the Nvidia subreddit said no pre-orders for the FE cards.

Heh, I know Tim. He's a part of the team I work with at Nvidia.

Gamers Nexus did a little deeper bit on the cooling in their news segment.

Not sure how I feel about this. This doesn't look to be conducive to the position of my radiator and fans...

Seems like you should be just doing water cooling, since your case is basically not a case. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

Moore’s Law is live on YouTube and discussing something I wanted to know more about, the 10 gig being enough in the 3080 and if the Tensor compression will make 10 be enough. Seems iffy still and, of course, will require waiting to see.

I'm reading that the EVGA Hybrids will be 240mm for most SKUs and 360mm for the Kingpin version, which means 240mm for 99.99% of them.

You mounted your hardware to the underside of an end table?

No thanks. Cat hair will be all up in that. I do want a new case though to go along with the new card...

To my defense...It's a nice end table.

If you are looking for something simple but really functional, check out the Be Quiet 500DX. Easily the best $100 case I've had.

Actually pretty sure I was looking at that and a Fractal Mesh one of the 120 different versions.

Same as my bench, but I’m thinking to use a p5 for water cooling depending on how everything fits.
