![]() I got a front panel that's a mesh now and has much better airflow, and get the same results. When I took off the front panel, the temperatures would go down considerably, down to 50 give or take. I used to get temperatures between 55-60 with those games, but that was because my case's front panel didn't have great airflow. The games that have hammered it the most have been Star Wars: Battlefront II and Battlefield V (Frostbite loves to hammer the CPU it seems). ![]() During the winter, when it would be half the temperatures outside at night as it is right now, and I left the windows open to the room overnight, I got much cooler temperatures than that. But generally, my processor rarely goes beyond 50 degrees Celsius. My processor idles at 32-34 degrees Celsius, depending on the ambient temperature. However, I have two Noctua Chromax NF-F12 fans pushing air through my radiator instead of the stock EVGA fans, but in my small amount of comparing, it didn't make much of a temperature difference (though they're certainly quieter). I have the CLC positioned at the front of my case as an intake, taking air in from the front panel and into my case. So I'm not in the most optimal environment for a cool PC, but I still get pretty good results with my build. I live in Arizona, so right now it's in the low 90's outside, and inside the room I'm in it's 78-80 degrees Fahrenheit (AC is expensive, especially during the day). ![]() ![]() I also have an i7-9700k, clocked to 4.6-4.8 GHz, and I've always ran it with the same CLC as you. However, I have the same processor and CLC as you, so I think I can offer a good comparison and hopefully answers. So I'm not an expert, I'm actually learning a lot about this stuff as I built my latest PC with cooling in mind this past September. ![]()
