Our Flir One Pro thermal imaging camera shows some noticeable differences in heat soak throughout the cooling tower itself between 50% and 100%, which is to be expected. Omitting AVX instruction sets allows for accurate, 100% loads at chosen clock speeds, while allowing AVX instructions would provide higher, albeit, unrealistic synthetic CPU loads and excessive heat production, less indicative of real-world use. Prime95 v29.4b8 (no AVX) is used for two-hour intervals, one managing fans at 50% PWM and the other at 100% PWM with RPM measurements being taken every three seconds and averaged across the duration of each two-hour capture. 7C70v12)Ĭorsair Dominator Platinum RGB, 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4-3600ĬrystalFontz CFA-633-TMI-KU, 4x Dallas One Wire WR-DOW-Y17 sensorsĬorsair Commander Pro, 100%/50% PWM Speed profiles (liquid cooling pump always if applicable)ĭata comparisons are based on data collected from testing performed on our new Intel i9-10850K system, including re-visiting many previously covered products which were originally covered on the prior testing platform which pivoted around an i7-5930k (4.20ghz Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO V2 at Amazon for $39.99 (opens in new tab) TLDR: Rytemps dropped 20-25 degrees switching from Wraith Prism to Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition, also able to maintain boost clock speeds.Intel Core i9-10850K LGA1200 (Comet Lake), all 10 cores 4.6Ghz 1.190v, (3.60Ghz stock speed, single core boost 5.2Ghz) I booted up my computer to find a whopping 20-25 degree difference across the board! I’m now idling around 30 and not going past mid-50s under load! This is also allowing my 3600 to maintain their boost clocks, resulting in a performance boost! Not to mention it looks sexy with that RGB fan in the front.

I installed the cooler in my PC, and also added an additional 120mm fan I had laying around to the back of the cooler. Then I decided to get the Hyper 212 RGB Black. My overall CPU temps dropped maybe 2 degrees? This didn’t make much of a difference in my CPU temps though. Each case fan is running at the same speed. I put two more in the front to blow air in, and one in the top-rear to pull air out.

I installed three additional case fans to achieve more airflow. I was okay with the temps I was getting (mid-50s, mid-80s under load), but I knew I’d want to OC my CPU in the future, so I knew this wouldn’t suffice. When I built it, I decided to just use the Wraith Prism that came with the Ryzen 5. It’s loaded with a Ryand a reference RX 5700 XT, sitting comfortable inside a Fractal Design Meshify C case. I recently built a pretty beefy AMD gaming PC.
