First serious AIO Watercooling project

[nzoomed]

Mightily impressed, I bought a Ryzen 9 5950X on special a couple of weeks back, older tech but still plenty of power.  Intention was to upgrade a smaller unit I have CPU mining Monero.   

The original board was a Gigabyte ABN350 wifi, this was a bit optimistic in hindsight as the voltage regulator VRM in it were a bit weak.  with the CPU maxed out the VRM kept overheating and only way I could sort that was a largish fan pointing directly at the VRM heatsink. Reality though it was never going to work, SFF build ITX board with a 120mm AIO water cooling , just too tight for more fans...

SO I bought myself a Cooler Master Elite Case, Asus Rog Strix b550A, and a 360mm Cooler Master Master Liquid 360 AIO Water cooler.

100% CPU utilization and CPU Temp is 47 degrees - I was impressed.

Thats pretty impressive, i guess it helps too that the Ryzen chips generally run more efficient and produce less heat compared to Intel.
