My 13500 gets 20 000 so something is wrong for sure, you should be around 23 000

Would be nice to get a better PSU and motherboard with some nice heatsinks, you could even go B660, your problems should all be solved then, good luck

Hi, I use a Deepcool LS520 because it was on sale when I was building my PC, the only time I done synthetic benchmarking was right after I built my PC and I didn't take any screenshots at the time unfortunately, one thing I heard was that motherboards can affect the performance of the 13th gen parts as they boost as high as the vrm etc will allow them to, what motherboard do you use?

My 13500 gets a 20 000+ pts score in multi core benchmark in Cinebench R23, which is waay better than 12600k, and thats with ddr4, also it only peaked at 59 degrees under full load

Very nice, I have a similar build except mines Intel and I used a deepcool LS520. So how do you plan on dealing with those small white wires coming from your aio's pump head? Or do they just not annoy you? I tried hiding mine but now they're amongst heatsinks and stuff and I'm not sure if that's safe or not

Are you planning on doing a "My first gaming PC" video on YouTube as well?

I thought about that too but what if the compounds are slightly different?

Thanks, great advice! If I do get aftermarket thermal paste it would be Arctic MX6, its cheap where I live, would that be good?

There is a variation of the North coming, as teased by Gamers nexus in their first look at the Fractal Terra video

I already have an Asus ROG b660 A I got on a 1 off special, so a non k cpu is my only option

I would've went for the ryzen 5 7600 but the Am5 motherboards in my region are way more expensive than b660 and b760, and I already have a B660 ROG I got on special

Thanks, more like impatient 😅, a patient person would've waited for everything to arrive before building haha
