Hey everyone,
I wanted to share my journey of cooling down my i9 14900K. After facing significant overheating issues, I decided to take some steps to resolve it.
What I Did:
- Fan Upgrades: I replaced the stock fans with Cooler Master Mobius 120 OC and Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM Chromax Black Swap fans.
- BIOS Tuning: Adjusted various BIOS settings to optimize performance and manage temperatures.
- Intel XTU Tweaks: Fine-tuned the core ratios and power limits for better performance and temperature control.
Results:
- Heavy Rendering: I ran a 12-minute heavy rendering session without any issues. The CPU temperature maintained below 70°C throughout.
- Cinebench R23 Scores:
- Before tuning: The temperature would hit 100°C within 1-2 seconds.
- After tuning: The score improved from 37,534 to 38,919, and temperatures stayed manageable.
Next, I'll be testing the system's performance in gaming to see how it holds up. Stay tuned for the results!
Feel free to ask any questions or share your experiences with cooling down your CPUs!
