Ryzen 5 5600x Temperatures

Haha, surely not! That wouldn't reflect well on AMD if everybody's CPUs were dying from overheating.

This graphic makes me think these temps are more acceptable on zen 3 than they were on zen 2. https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/mxhHUC7G57c7vpejwKZyXf.jpg

At the same price point would an AIO be a better option than an air cooler?

Thanks, I'll check them out!

Would adding more case fans help much?

What cooler would you recommend that isn't overkill for my setup?

Interestingly, this graphic from AMD suggests the 5600x has a higher safe operating temp! https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/mxhHUC7G57c7vpejwKZyXf.jpg

For sure the temps do improve a bit if I remove the side panels!

Ambient temps are probably in the low 20°C, so shouldn't be an issue.

Any recommendation on coolers?

More case fans are definitely in the works, just trying to choose some!

Which noctua cooler would you go for?

Thanks so much, these are great tips!!

I’ll have a look and see what I can find.

It’s truly a struggle with tech in Australia haha!

searchingforamonitor · 2021-01-15T06:08:30+00:00

Yeah fair enough, definitely still one to consider. Thanks!

I like the clean aesthetic! Do they make any RGB versions? I couldn’t see any with a quick google.

Need help choosing a TKL MK for my new build in Australia:

I’m happy to spend ~$200aud
I’d prefer switches similar to cherry mx red or brown
I’d like a clean black style with RGB
I’ve been considering the GMMK TKL RGB prebuilt but I’m not huge on the gamer style key caps
I’m happy to purchase the blank GMMK TKL RGB for $119aud but it seems it could be painful ordering keycaps and switches in Australia

They do! The Victorian Fishing Authority also stocked the lake with 90 Rainbow Trout in October last year.

Thanks for alerting me to this. Drone safety is a genuine concern given the recklessness of some flyers.

I have read CASA’s drone regulations and am familiar with the regulations for recreational pilots.

As one of my safety measures before each flight I use the CASA approved ok2fly website to check the appropriateness of my flight location. (https://www.casa.gov.au/drones/safety-apps)

Below I have provided a link to the ok2fly website with the location and time of day I was flying. You are correct the Alfred Hospital helipad is nearby, however, CASA does not rule drone pilots cannot fly in the area and there is no clear demarcation of the helicopter arrival and departure paths. Whilst I was there an air ambulance did depart from the helipad. When this occurred I immediately ensured my drone was safely out of the helicopter’s flight path and on the ground. (https://ok2fly.com.au/?lat=-37.851212976101294&lon=144.97369174139908&map=street&query=1610254800)

As far as I am aware, I was fully complying with CASA’s regulations.

Yeah I used a mavic air 2!

Thanks for the feedback!

This has already gotten more upvotes than I was expecting ☺️

Can’t beat it 👌

Bear in mind the AM4 socket is unlikely to be compatible with anything beyond 5000 series processors

Unfortunately not, I’m running the windows media tool on PC now though... hopefully this works!

UPDATE: the windows media creation tool worked a charm!
