I'm hoping that this is the right forum for my question. I have a Corsair 600T currently running a CM 212 Evo cooler. I'm switching out the 212 for an H100 this weekend, which will change the airflow of my entire case. Right now, and...

Well that was faster than I expected. Set the multiplier to 40 and the vcore to 1.3 (That's about where it went to when I set it to auto) and hit 75C (at 22.2 ambient) in about a minute and a half of the blend test. I can probably work...

Alright, so no matter what 60 is a ridiculous expectation. I'd still like to keep it around 70. I won't worry about a couple degrees over, but sometimes my apartment can get upwards of 26.6C, so I want some wiggle room in case ambient...

I'd considered a custom loop when I decided to put this together, but I wasn't sure about it. Mostly because I'm not wonderful with the hands on stuff. I'm sure I could cool the CPU just fine, and anything that I didn't have to remove...
