will CM Hyper 212 be able to hold the temps on 10850k?
pairing it with MSI MPG Gaming Plus my case has pretty good airflow and plenty of space for the hardware to breathe in was going to buy but figured i couldnt afford a decent AIO well i can in a month time but not now so i was wondering if that air cooler is enough for now on stock

Not very effectively, no. It's best to use at least a good 240mm AIO or beefier air cooler.

dam and here i thought it would be ok to use for a month i already ordered it lol maybe i should go for the I7 so i can get the AIO instead?

according to Tom's hardware review it's a decent cooler but under preforms compared to other cool master air coolers


source : https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cooler-master-hyper-212-black-edition-rgb-silencio,5967.html


they used a "Intel Core i7-5930K" @ 4.20ghz with 1.20v
For stock cooling on the 10850k that air cooler is fine, though i don't see why you
would want to buy a k series cpu and not overclock

So honestly i would get an AIO with that cpu, it just makes sense

You could or you could just grab a cheap cooler for now and if needed limit CPU power/speeds while you save for a better cooler. I know it's kinda seems pointless to buy a better CPU and restrict it's performance but it'd only be temporary and once you can get a better cooler it'd be like a free performance boost.

All depends on your money situation.

EDIT:
Oh and forgot to say due to motherboards default to voltage that is often higher than a CPU may need you could look into undervolting the CPU and still get the same performance without throttling. That will depending on silicon lottery and how lucky you are with the CPU. Some can under CPU's 0.100 or more while others struggle to undervolt at all.

Not the manufacturers of board set incorrect voltage. They just have to set it high enough that there are no issues with a CPU that wasn't very lucky when it comes to silicon lottery. If they applied it low enough for the best people would be complaining about faults and stuff.

i mean i want too but considering i cant afford a AIO now i was thinking of just making it run at stock speed i think intel will OC it anyway base on temp without me having to do anything lol like my i5 8600k now its running at 4.3ghz

Technically yes, the cpu will turbo/Thermal Velocity Boost the cpu clock speed
upto 5.20ghz if the cooling is adequate. though im not sure how high it will be able to boost with
that air cooler. i suspect around 4.2-4.5ghz but those are just random guesses.

You don't need an AIO, a 90 dollars NH-D15 will do the job fine. These 10th gen i9 CPUs are already pretty much overclocked out of the box. So a Hyper 212 is probably not enough, even for stock speed. Unless you live in very cold environments like New Work in winter.

But you're comparing a 6 core 6 thread CPU, which doesn't get very hot, to a 10 core 20 thread CPU which is known to get toasty. Cores and threads do add a bit of heat.

Comet Lake draws a fair bit more power as well. At full load, it'll run too hot for an OC.

Don't overclock it and you'll probably be fine, it'll run toasty, but worse case, it throttles or powers down no harm done, just save up for a noctua or darkrock tower cooler, they are around 90 bucks, don't drop your cpu to afford a cooler, that's just daft, just make do and save up.

I don't see how paying extra for a K chip and not overclocking isn't at least as daft. Even with overclocking the high end unlocked Intel chips are a questionable value proposition these last few years. Then there's the issue of whether he needs all those cores.

maybe turning off the MCE on the bios will help reduce the temp ive never touched it before though n just left it on if its the default settings for most bios

i stream sometimes but not always i do a bit of basic video editing if necessary but ye the 6/6 cores that i currently have does not help me as it usually uses up 100% when i game n do those task so im a bit paranoid thats y i ordered the 10850k to have that mental secure that i have an extra 2c/4threads i know it may sound dumb of me saying that
Pocahawtness Feb 25, 2021 @ 1:30am 
Absolutely, yes.
Realigo Actual Feb 25, 2021 @ 2:22am 
yes you can and pretty well, but it allows some spikes. overclocking will be low

good airflow + lower ambient will probably make a good bit of difference

Try reading the ops whole post, then my entire reply and then get back to me.

To save time, I said to use it temporarily as that's what they have, the other option op put forward was to drop down to a slower lower core cpu t cpu gir the sake of buying an aio.

Given the 2 options, mski g fo while they save up for a proper cooler seems the best approach to me.

I didnt say not yo overclock ever, just until they get a better cooler.
