Re: Replacing Define Mini C fans for quieter operation?

How do I check that? What is the temp ceiling? Whenever I looked in Task Manager all cores/threads were pegged at 100%. Is there a better way to know that? The temp ceiling is defined by AMD, i don't own your CPU, but search the web to see the max temperature where it still sustains the full boost,...

Re: Replacing Define Mini C fans for quieter operation?

I built the system over the weekend and ran the Prime95 torture test for about 18 hours with no errors. Ryzen Master was showing CPU temps of 65 - 75 Celsius. I think that's OK? As long as you are sustaining the boosts fully, the temps seems ok, AMD is pretty good as long as you don't hit the temp ...

The most interesting thing to me was how quiet the system was. It was barely audible and just above the ambient noise leve...

Re: Replacing Define Mini C fans for quieter operation?

Thank you! That's what I'll do. Maybe the case will be OK with the included fans and I'll see how I like it. As for the fan configuration someone suggested that the rear exhaust fan on its own is optimal and would work better by itself without the need for the front fan(s). What do you think? Le Gra...

Replacing Define Mini C fans for quieter operation?

Hi! I'm contemplating a new Ryzen 7 3700X/ASRock B450M Pro4 build that I want to hopefully be quieter than my current system and am looking for suggestion on how that can be achieved. Define Mini C was recommended as the case for this system along with replacing the stock fans. But I didn't get more...
