When turning on computer, occasionally CPU temps max out
I recently built a new PC (Ryzen 7 9800x3d and Lian li trinity ii performance AIO). Everything has been mostly fine except twice now, when I boot my computer in the morning the CPU temps have maxed out and the AIO fans go to max. Doing a hard-reset solves the issue, but its happened twice now and I'm not sure if my pump is…

Can I buy a white NZXT Kraken 360 AIO Through Micro Center?
I plan to build a new PC using the NZXT H9 Elite case, and would like to use the NZXT Kraken 360 cooler. But it appears that Micro Center does not sell it in white; only in black.

replacement for deepcool's sudden absence
Any word on what the replacement in-store will be for the unexpected absence of DeepCool products, specifically air coolers? Seems like they filled an important gap, as that $40-100 price segment is looking woefully underrepresented now and is typically the "sweet spot" for price/performance. Could Scythe see a return to…

Why is nothing plugged into the AIO Pump pins on my mobo?
Microcenter recently assembled my PC about six weeks ago. I've been experimenting with changing the fan speeds via the LConnect 3 software for my Lian Li Galahad ii Trinity performance AIO cooler.

Will a ARCTIC Freezer 33 do fine on a Ryzen 7 5800x3D or should I upgrade the cooler?
So I'm planning a CPU upgrade once Black Friday rolls around and I'm eyeing the Ryzen 7 5800x3D. To give background, since 2020, I've had a Ryzen 5 3600 with the Arctic Freezer 33 with one fan and it's been serving me well ever since. On idle my CPU seems to stay at 45-54 degrees C, and when playing games the highest it…

So I've mounted two car radiator fans under the top of it to be used as exhaust (only ones thin enough to fit between that and the cage for the daughterbaords, and I had to cut the housing a bit…

Cooler suggestions for i7-12700k?

Liquid cooling for ~$1k SFF
Looking to start a small form factor build to replace my Dell XPS 8940 with a 2060 and i7. I'd like to keep if around $1k and be decently portable if I want to travel with the PC.

Switching coolers in my PC. Need a relatively quiet option. What does everyone suggest?
I'm currently using a Cooler Master ML240L, but the pump is loud enough to get picked up when I'm recording a podcast, even with a dynamic microphone. Moving the PC farther from my microphone just isn't an option at this point. I still want to have decent cooling performance for gaming, but I need to mitigate the noise…

How to clean Corsair XG7 waterblock fins?
I have some built up gunk in the fins of my Corsair waterblock after using Corsair's own clear red fluid. I got it taken apart, soaked the fin array in 91% isopropyl for about 4 hours then scrubbed with an old toothbrush. However, that only got off about half the stuff. Any suggestions?
