[QUOTE=]GS[ Controller,Jun 5 2018 07:41pm]According to the benchmark you listed above the h100 preformance beats the nh d15 and is only $100

I'll go with that if that really is the case.

Spending the extra 70 is a bit much for my cooling needs im thinking.[/QUOTE]



Yeah, you're right. But that's an NH D14. The NH D15 isn't on the list for benchmarking, so I guesstimated.

Ok, here are all the 4K, IPS, Gsync monitors, 27" or above. Get one of these. If you want IPS that is.

And get this...

/e If you get a monitor without Gsync or freesync, then you have a larger selection.

But why? Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut is quite a lot better.

Well Coollaboratory is what is recommended for delidding.

As for just TC I like Zalman ZM STG2


And I use an older chart...

Zalman NEVER dries out, and needs no curing time, and works just like the champs.

Did more research on the paste and I think i'll still go with coollab pro.

Thats the final list.

Any last comments/concerns?

I will delid if you guys think its worth doing though btw.

The 8700K's run hot. It kinda depends on what you intend to do. If you want to overclock, look into the Rocket Delid Tool. There are quite a few folks on here that have delidded. They report 15-20C drop in temps.

Your build looks fine. I personally don't like MSI anymore. Website is funky, manuals are funky, tech support is funky. But that's me.

15-20c

well thats substantial to say the least so I'll probably delid then.

Thanks for the help, I'll be placing the order on everything minus the PS that i already have within the next few hours

Are you overclocking all core to 5ghz plus?

No was planning on constant 4.5 but what do you recommend if i delid with the noctua + coollab pro?
my room temp is 21c

8700k h100ihere
Stock with stock voltage lowered can't remember what it was
Barely hit 50
All core 4.7 profile might hit 60 haven't voltage tweaked down
All core 5ghz might hit 75 haven't tweaked down voltage either
Kinda lazy right now
Usually use 4.7 all core profile prolly should work voltage down on both but performance wise stock to 4.7 had nice gains but all 5ghz was hardly a bump
And on that note
You know there might be 8086k release soon
