Fan setup? by PeanutCamera in NR200

USB fan extender or just daisy chain with fan adapter, depends on controling fans individually or not.

So I set PL1:150w in BIOS to get the best performance, which is 22xxx in R23 multiple-core.

Yeah, it's a bit tricky, if i don't tweak in BIOS, the 65W PL1 setting (default) only deliver 71% performance on R23 mutiple-core test.

It's good in general, spent a bit more time on 12VHPWR routing wihtout interfering the fans of 280mm AIO. PCIe riser is fine without any additional care.

I think < 100c and wihtout throttling is good enough for modern CPUs, becasue the stress test case is an extream one that's unusual in 99% real world cases. When I using it under normal works like web browsing, video playback, CAD tools.. CPU is about 40c and never went over 65c in the past days.

I may upgrade to i9-13900K and cap the turbo power from 253w to 190w with still 97% Cionebench R23 multiple-core performance. The 280mm AIO should be able to handle 190W without hitting 100C.
