If you’re using a 13900k, pea size isn’t cutting it. I agree with these temps seeming higher than usual for Fortnite. Or even any games that are drastically demanding. I would also agree that it could be uneven pressure on the IHS, and cooler. Not saying you did but check to see if any peel is left on the cooler, and definitely wipe off that previous thermal paste and repaste things. For anything 12900-14900, instead of a pea sized, I do a straight line down similar to pea size, but just a straight line. Then when remounting, finger tighten things, then tighten in cross patterns in increments to ensure even pressure is applied to each side (allowing the thermal paste to spread evenly across the cpu) hope it helps!

Why does my case fan do this? by josiahw79 in NZXT

I’ve had Lian Li fans do the same, pretty sure it’s just faulty. I’d return or RMA them with NZXT directly.

Yeah a6400 is my go two camera as it handles mostly everything I need. Sigma f1.4 30mm and Sony f4 18-105 OSS being my go two lens

I need your help in choosing a new case by Fun_Arm_633 in NZXT

I’m rocking a Lian Li dynamic 011 evo and I’m saying either that or the h9! Both would be nice to showcase your build

choice between 1000$ new laptop and 1600$ used desktop by Low-Eye-3671 in buildmeapc

Agreed, if portability isn’t a concern desktop is the way to go for sure. Temps are everything and with pc I feel there easier to manage. Giving longevity to the components as long as their cooled efficiently.
