Radiator size isn't your limiting factor on 8 core chips in my opinion. Differentiation on the radiator happens with all core loads for 12+ core chips (i.e. closer to 200W TDP than 100W). At the 5800X3D/7800X3D level, the pump/waterblock design is more important than the rad size...

Seems like there are a lot of 420mm aios on the way. Saw at least a half dozen new entrants to the size at Computex.

Laptops are a completely different ball of wax as performance depends on the laptop maker's implementation of the power/cooling delivery and wattage that they run the GPU at. I'm certain that there will be 4060 Ti based laptops that are faster than 4070 based laptops. Can't buy just based upon...

Question though - where you're at in the world, you've got choice of several cable providers that can come in over the same physical connection? Here in the US, the cable company owns the entire infrastructure and does not allow last mile competition, so we get reamed each year (or more...

Well... sort of kind of maybe but maybe not. The difficult part here with the comparison with the raw numbers here is that, for the most part, it was up against 360mm AIOs (and a 280mm AIO). 140mm fans tend to have a much lower top speed (and in this case, 1500RPM), so the performance and...

Capellix version should be the same cooling setup, just sans LCD, which should shave about 100 quid off the cost.

https://www.thefpsreview.com/2022/09/15/cooler-master-haf-700-black-case-review/ should work :-) A 420mm setup is basically 3x 140mm fans plus room to connect the hoses. Same length as a 360mm AIO, just a bit wider. Cases that support it will have essentially two rails to accommodate 360/420 in...

Right now, I get most of my streaming free - Netflix (via T-Mobile), HBO Max (via ATT Fiber, for however long that lasts) and Apple+ (via T-Mobile). I pay for a Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle at $13.99 a month (Amazon prime doesn't exactly count as I'd have prime anyway). Quite frankly, I'm not...
