Hello guys!
Here is the story:
I have i7 7700k. It has those famous heat spikes.
They drive me nuts.
Not so long ago I have succesfully got a replacement with RMA.
But the new one spikes even worse!
No BIOS settings or fan curve makes a difference. (maybe you know something to advice here)
Now I have a Noctua air cooler. It handles temp well, but I have to keep it in the manual constant speed mode, to keep the fan steady and quiet.
But when my 1080ti arrives, I will star to play and I'm afraid that Noctua will not handle all the CPU heat on it's current low speed.
But manualy changing the fan curve between silent and high performance every time is no too convenient.
So I am thinking about buying a AIO water cooler.
I'm planing to set those coolers to control the fan's speed by water temperature (they can do that, do they?).
Because water will change it's temp smoothly, there will be no fan speed jumping.
Heat spikes don't consern me in terms of temp too much. It's all about the fan rpm ramping.
Will this plan work?
And what AIO would you advice me to buy?
My choice is prety poor.
Thermaltake Water 3.0 Ring, Corsair h115i, be quiet silent loop 280 and krakens 52 or 61.
And some fans if there will be need for replacement. Cuz reviews often advice to replace stock fans, especially on Corsair.
Thanx in advance!
