Still going to heat the same




Yes but with PC cooling you can locate the ...device wherever. Say, near to a window for example.
The only limitation is the length of the hose.

Think air conditioner, but only for the CPU.

I mean you obviously have some money burning a hole in your pocket. You don't NEED a new rig...so....experiment with other cooling options. :)

@OP, maybe buy a BMW. It's like a minor upgrade every month for 3 or 5 years. :)

Ghot... how is it a waste of my money if I'm spending nothing to gain performance?.......

Also a P1 isn't a waste of money. It will appreciate

I know a McLaren is an investment. My point is...is there something your comp can't do right now?
Iirc you have a fairly badass comp. Maybe invest some money on something else.

Don't get stuck in the loop of just upgrading comp, because a year or so has passed. Upgrade for a reason...like it is insufficient for some reason.



/e Hell, even your 2nd rig is nothing to sneeze at. Maybe buy some land or something.
Smart phones are getting better by the year. In 20 years the desktop will be all but dead. Spend ...ahead.

Stocks?

No GPU is an upgrade for me.

I don't edit. I don't use the 8 cores to its extent. The IPC would help my sli. Less power consumption etc.

It's not like im upgrading gpus, ssds ram water cooling and the works.
