    Question Have 5900X - What is my next AM4 upgrade? Very bored.

    No bottlenecks at this time. The 5900X paired with an RTX3080ti performs well in all games. Just bored, have some cash to spend in upgrading the CPU if worthwhile. Lou

    Question Ryzen 7 5800x Temps

    From your inputs, I came away thinking that as the generation of cpu's went up, my cooling remained the same After reading your and others input, it became apparent that my cooling was not up to handling a Ryzen 7 5800X. Appreciate your input. Lou

    Question Ryzen 7 5800x Temps

    Likely. The water cooling I have works great, its just the fan speed I find annoying. I look for a completely silent or as close to that in a gaming computer.

    Question Ryzen 7 5800x Temps

    The issue is the noise of the fans. I want a quiet gaming computer and do not want to hear the fans of the water cooling.
