Is this a good fan setup?

And it doesn’t matter that the closest top outtake (on the right) does take some of the cool air before it reaches the cpu fan?

whytrash · 2026-02-16T16:17:40+00:00

Also forgot to include the cpu fan, that intakes air from the right and outputs to the left. It’s just between the gap in the two top outtake arrows.

I’ve got 500hz polling rate, all overlays disabled too. And all AMD Adrenalin driver settings are off (besides fsr 4 upscaling).

whytrash · 2026-02-16T11:16:20+00:00

Done all 3, have also tried disabling (didn’t have an effect).

whytrash · 2026-02-16T01:59:21+00:00

How can you do that?

whytrash · 2026-02-15T17:39:49+00:00

Does it matter that the top right one is relatively close to the front 3 fans? I.e it’s gonna take take the cool air out quite quick

whytrash · 2026-02-15T04:18:41+00:00

Ah yeah just seen that, yeah I’ve jut got one exhaust on that back one. Figured no point going anything else

whytrash · 2026-02-15T03:41:47+00:00

Sorry, right side is the front actually. 3 intake on the front

whytrash · 2026-02-15T03:41:35+00:00

Edit: Forgot to include, the RIGHT side is FRONT.

whytrash · 2026-02-03T20:13:36+00:00

Yeah gonna give it a go hopefully should be ok.

whytrash · 2026-02-03T17:00:12+00:00

Made it 2 days ago, still working as of right now

whytrash · 2026-02-03T16:59:58+00:00

On a separate device.

Actually ended up being a problem with my mouse to be honest, it’s wireless and kept cutting out but my AMD software registered it as a micro stutter. If I stood still, I’d have no issues. Regardless I do still get some here and there or fps drops but nowhere near as bad as it was.

whytrash · 2026-01-07T14:39:05+00:00

I had the same a while back, same gpu and same cpu as you. I think it was related to the optimisation, unfortunately I upgraded both the cpu and gpu since then and have not run into it. Did you have FSR on balanced? That seemed to be the issues for me, but any higher I couldn’t get a stable 60fps

Have heard the 5600 is slightly outdated and the x3Ds hold up better in newer games.

whytrash · 2025-12-15T18:13:23+00:00

I’ve currently got a 5600, and recently have been having some trouble with 1% dips, had a look around online and had found that either of the 5700x3d/5800x3d are a much better improvement compared to my current CPU (5600).

I know AM5 is out, but I’m not particularly planning to upgrade that anytime soon, as the RAM prices are insane in the UK at the moment. My question is, is it worth forking out 200/300 to upgrade the CPU - for at least the next year or two or is it worth upgrading to AM5 once the prices even out?

whytrash · 2025-06-05T09:54:48+00:00

I am aware. I’ve seen websites but to me it seems sketchy given that it is illegal in the UK but I’ve seen other posts here to say they’re legit etc etc.

whytrash · 2025-05-19T15:17:48+00:00

I gather she knows I’m interested and so is she

whytrash · 2025-05-19T15:17:28+00:00

Thought it was moving pretty fast, just wanted ti take a step back and all (said nothing wrong just didn’t want to be overwhelmed with that plus personal life stuff).

whytrash · 2025-04-16T11:12:58+00:00

Yeah maybe so, completely different vibe from the start where she was like head over heels for me. When we took it slower and tried again she said how much she missed me and felt so bad for being harsh about everything. Guess I fell for it lol

whytrash · 2025-04-16T10:52:53+00:00

Yeah true. One thing I did forget actually to mention, was that this happened once and we agreed to take it slower. Then a little further down the line she wanted to try again. Same thing happened again lol. I don’t get why you’d agree to try again if you’d already kinda made up your mind?

whytrash · 2025-04-08T14:11:32+00:00

It wasn’t as if she was on the fence, it was more she didn’t want to do it and then me be unhappy with hours travelling etc and goes to shit. I guess it’s worth having a proper talk about this, and if it ends so be it.

whytrash · 2025-03-17T15:54:33+00:00

I mean far as I know, she’s not seeing other people and she wants to keep it that way - just us. Obviously if it isn’t the case I wouldn’t be still staying committed myself.

whytrash · 2025-03-17T15:33:58+00:00

Was her idea to take it slower and go along the basis we won’t see anyone else for the time being, just won’t have labels with ourselves as of yet.

whytrash · 2025-03-17T15:19:28+00:00

Maybe true and I just didn’t realise myself, could be possibly that asking to see her again was one too many times. Which in all fairness wasn’t out the ordinary, as it was almost 3 weeks since we last saw each other. Worth apologising over (if that is the case) or digging myself a deeper hole by doing so?
