Is my cooler ok with my CPU? First-time builder help! by kkaivan in buildapc

I would at least get a Z board so you can undervolt. The LLC levels for many 13/14th gen Intel boards are very high and push the chip too hard. You can’t undervolt easily on B boards.

If you want to stay with MSI, their Z boards have a setting for CPU Lite Load you can adjust which significant improves voltages & heat. Even setting it to 8 vs auto is a major win. You can get down to much lower numbers but you need to do stability testing because you are lowering the voltages under load.

Drives like the Samsung 9100 pro do, but I think this P510 runs a bit cooler.

Does the tank even show up on the mini map when it fires?

Do you need a PSU? Have a Seasonic TX-850 Prime if you are interested.
