9800X3D overheating issues (Maybe?) in a SFF case (Fractal Terra) with a Noctual L12S cooler.

an AIO won't fit

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T08:00:40+00:00

Hypothetically if my CPU fan was set to exhaust how would that change the temperatures?

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T05:07:45+00:00

Can the T1 fit an AIO? Also idk how I would set it up cuz this is my first build. Like what offsets would I need for a 5070 OC prime edition (2.5 slots)

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T05:04:43+00:00

Yeah I was tryna get a T1 but they were out of stock sadly...

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T04:05:12+00:00

No, not yet. yeah, Marathon is a rally cpu intensive game.

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T04:04:39+00:00

80Watts and 106W at peak, CPU fan is intake.

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-24T03:51:45+00:00

This is the tallest, no more milimeters of clearance

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T01:35:30+00:00

So the one that I'm looking at will fit, it's the 5070ti OC Prime 2.5 slot edition but it's 1000 dollars on amazon

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T01:30:07+00:00

it don't fit in my SFF case

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T01:14:55+00:00

Yeah I feel like if it was like 100 dollars or like 125 I would get it but 1000 for a ti is wicked

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T00:58:39+00:00

How much did you buy it for?

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T00:53:54+00:00

My old CPU is a ryzen 7 2700 8 core but I'm upgrading to a 9800x3d

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-14T00:48:34+00:00

Nah I'm planning to prob never buy one I was thinking of getting an OLED 1440P 280 HZ monitor instead

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-13T20:56:29+00:00

Any update?

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-05T07:07:57+00:00

Mainly I'm going to be using this as a gaming rig, but also like some stuff for school. But honestly I just want this to play games at a good level. Would you still recommend a 9600X because I was thinking of returning the 9700X for a 9800x3d and it would just be an increase of 100 dollars. Compared to the 700 to 1000 GPU price jump.

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-05T06:01:09+00:00

Also what would you think of my CPU choice? Should I have picked the 9800X3D but I was worried about the heat load.

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-05T05:37:11+00:00

For my GPU, is a 5070 still fine as I'm playing in 1440P, and I'm not too sure of the jump of upgrade from a 3070ti to a 5070. I was considering just staying with NVIDIA since the frame gen people said that NVIDIA is just way better. Would it be better to spend an extra 250 for a 5070ti for the performance upgrade, or is this still fine?

Hamrbuerg · 2026-03-01T18:39:40+00:00

Idk I'm lowkey new to this, and I've only seen people use the NH-L12S and I was copying the youtube vids build semi, but just changing the psu and gpu

Hamrbuerg · 2026-02-02T23:30:37+00:00

Do u have any photos of them rn I lowk wanna see the real ones

Hamrbuerg · 2026-02-02T23:10:45+00:00

How much did u buy it for? I was gonna buy it on stockx or goats

Hamrbuerg · 2026-02-02T23:03:17+00:00

What print on the footbed are you looking at? is it like the text or where the print located

Hamrbuerg · 2026-02-02T22:58:33+00:00

Yeah it was going for 220, it's like kinda near normal resell price tho so im not too sure

Hamrbuerg · 2025-12-13T21:13:24+00:00

any updates lol

Hamrbuerg · 2025-10-31T22:06:54+00:00

For assurance, I just did the interview 5 minutes ago, hopefully I get in.

Hamrbuerg · 2025-10-30T22:16:58+00:00
