Need urgent suggestion for chipset

mclaren85 · Nov 23, 2022

As many would know, I have the fanless version of x570 chipset. After an extensive experiment, I deduced that it relies heavily on external fan in order to cool down (such as front intake fans). after removing the front plate the temperature decreases well below to 42-43C degrees. (As you can see in the picture below.) Also the gpu temperature decreases over 15%, which is quite a change.
So I would really love to hear your suggestions to which case should I get instead of Asus GT-301 in order to properly cool down my chipset and gpu "without" need to remove the front plate. My current case is Asus Tuf Gt-301.

Stiil need help guys..

Alternatively get a chipset cooler

I didn't know even that kind of thing exist!
Thanks million!

Had exactly that one back in 2006...

You mean it is outdated or old-fashioned?

All I can say about that is my X570 MEG ACE has it from the factory.
Nice and quiet too.....

How are the temps like?
I have the same version with "S" suffix.

Age doesn't matter with these coolers, it just works. (back then for me at least)

kapone32 · Nov 24, 2022

I have the exact same board. That is the biggest caveat to the board. I had to get a Noctua 3000 RPM 140mm fan and put it in the middle of my front. It allows a 17 degree drop in temps. I wish I could use one of the chipset coolers from any of the X570 boards I have sitting around. That Thermaltake unit looks a little 2000s for me. I was actually thinking of using some doubel sided tape and place a 80MM Noctua on top of the heatsink. My case is the Phanteks Enthoo Pro 2.

How did you attach the fan?

I have not yet I have to see if it fits. If it does I will use double sided tape or a velcro strip to hold it in place. I am just not sure if the glue will melt when the chipset heats up.

Maybe placing GPU vertically would help cooling? I'm preparing to buy a pci riser and a high rpm front intake fan to make sure the adequate air to flow.

Get front fans with high static pressure and rear fans with high flow, also add a fan or waterblock to your chipset. And if you get a riser cable you will just be obstructing airflow to the gpu...

MY GPU is Water cooled so there are no fans. I just went to the drug store and bought some 3M strips. I could not put the fan directly cover the entire heatsink (an adapter card in the 3rd slot) but it seems to be about 10 degrees cooler. I also cannot really hear the Noctua fan either.

Yes there are man, on the rad lol

kapone32 · Nov 24, 2022

Ok I have had the fan going for some time now (45 minutes). The Chipset now stabilizes at 69.8 degrees that is 7-8 degrees better than before. I can indeed suggest adding a 80mm fan would be a benefit. The 3M strips cost me $5 at the drug store. The way the fan is designed (Noctua) I have to have the fan pulling air onto the chipset. It is PWM so as the chipset heats up it should increase the fan speed accordingly as I set it in the BIOS to respond to the chipset. I would do that before vertical GPU but that is my opinion only.

Yes, one of the best, up there with thermalright, Noctua, and bequiet.

I thought the best cases were made by Lian li and Asus?

I would not trust an Asus case further than I can throw it. Lian Li makes some good cases, but the fact is that you can’t go solely by the brand. The Lancool II had really poor temps because there was so little front intake. Then they released the Lancool II Mesh to correct for the issue and it was a great case.

I just transplanted my build from a Fractal Design Meshify C into a Lancool III a couple weekends ago.

Don't buy a new case, mod your current case, replace the glass with mesh, you can buy rolls of mesh on amazon for under 10 bucks, just buy some, cut to fit, for a cleaner look get some plastic channel and mount magnets to one side just like a normal dust filter, total cost should be under 30 bucks, and you get great airflow

I love the idea tbh, and really appreciated!

@kapone32 I think we should really take into consideration to place the GPU vertically. Gpu is the main culprit

Trust me it is not my GPU. My GPU is single slot and doesn't go above 50 C. and is exhausted by a top mounted 420mm rad. My chipset runs that way because it has a SSD RAID 0 array, a huge SSD and a WD AN 1500 with all of the onboard USB connectors are populated, with a NVME drive to keep everyone happy. I will agree though that the triple slot cards are a hinder. A proper riser is about the same as a Alpahcool or Byiski block. Corsair makes it easy to order watercooling parts and you could use Alphacool Quick connect tubing to make it totally painless and serviceable without having to drain the whole thing. A 360 (Copper) Rad is about anywhere from $60-$100 and Groovesland in Germany does free shipping World wide over $30 (Tubing).
