Anything cheap that displays a picture is more than enough I'd just turn it off at night and just use during the day when you are around just in case personally... I wouldn't want anything to happen to it regardless I'd consider something with a fan as passive are ok, but I always end up putting a fan in front of it so seems a little pointless to me lol

I was meaning to ask Ashley, what cooler do you use for your 3950X?

Be Quiet Shadow Rock TF2 + 140mm (the clips are a bit bent xD, the stock fan is an annoying 135mm...) Noctua 3000 RPM Industrial PPC @ 2500 RPM minimum. (hearing is for chumps).

Love it, blasts air all onto my RAM, around the socket, VRM heatspreader + inductors & caps, etc. I run the 3950X with a modified PPT set in Ryzen Master, using PBO.

I have two settings that I'm flicking between with the touch of a button right now, that is 105 W PPT and 95 W PPT, in all-core load temps are < 70 C, in bursty work they bounce up to the mid 70s, but that's because the cores are allowed into higher P-states (4ghz+).

Temps are acceptable in all-core work at stock, below the 95C threshold, but I was more worried about my VRM and the sutained 146W Socket power. Also, in bursty workloads the chip was flirting with 80+. Perf/watt goes down drastically over 4 GHz on Zen2, so I'm absolutely happy with this set up. 3.8 all -core and 4.0-4.1 all-core in bursty @105W PPT, and 3.65 and 3.9 ish, respectively, @ 95W

Thanks mate, my project log with my 3900X says a similar story... I need to do some fine tweaking but at the moment, it's test everything time for me to get a base line for what performance is like out the box

Then it's time for tweaking everything I can.. Whenever I can get the time that is....

Grabbed a GT 710 for cheap, should be a bit safer now. (I also keep an electrical fire extinguisher near my setup just in case).

Also I kinda... like Ryzen. Lol.

Great to hear you got it swapped out mate

Lovely set of boxes there

Here’s my main rig with the 3900x - Rigel

My NAS running an old Xeon x3440 - Altair

The rest of the farm lives in the garage with my sim rig
Here’s Arcturus (top - FX-8150) and Pollux (bottom - 4770k)

And the e5-2695 v2 - Antares
