Online friend wanted to upgrade his 2500K but didn't want to do the build himself. He ordered all of the parts off Newegg and shipped them to me so I could do it. I'll be mailing this to the Chicago area today:



First time building in the Meshify C. Overall, I really like it. Especially the PSU bracket that lets me slide out the entire PSU from the back using 2 thumb screws. Also, the tinted glass is nice.

The 1080 is mine. I had to use it so I could install Windows and the games he wanted, as well as update the drivers and such. He has a MSI Gaming X 970 at home he will be reusing. Also, a good cooler will only get you like .1 or .2 more on a 1600.

I put it at 3.8ghz with an aggressive fan curve. The Wraith Spire is shockingly quiet even at max RPM. I think I set it at 50%/50C -> 75%/60C -> 100%/70C.

The fan curve is kinda of low.

Fan speed/temp
60/40
80/50
95/60

For Max performance and efficiency you want your temps below 55C. Hotter it is the more unstable. 65C is really fucking hot. I would hate to wait till it's 70C for it to go 95% also run fan at 100% is bad for it too

What? Heat causes instability? On Ryzen? No way. Tell us more!

It'll be fine.
