Silent Loop cooling Ryzen 7 *

Be Quiet! Silent Loop cooling Ryzen 7 Prime95 16 cores test This is a 280mm Radiator with 2 140mm fans. https://sites.google.com/view/fxv300tech/cooling-fans There are a few different types of cooling fans. Sleeve bearing fans use two surfaces lubricated with oil or grease as a friction contact. Sleeve bearings are less durable as the contact surfaces can become rough and/or the lubricant dry up, eventually leading to failure. Sleeve bearings may be more likely to fail at higher temperatures, and may perform poorly when mounted in any orientation other than vertical. The lifespan of a sleeve bearing fan may be around 40,000 hours at 50°C. Fans that use sleeve bearings are generally cheaper than fans that use ball bearings, and are quieter at lower speeds early in their life, but can grow considerably noisier as they age. Rifle bearing fans are similar to sleeve bearing, but are quieter and have almost as much lifespan as ball bearings. The bearing has a spiral groove in it that pumps

PSU - look out for an 8 pin EPS Power cable 12 volt *

Image
When you purchase a PSU it is best to get something powerful enough to support the items you could connect to your motherboard. In particular graphic cards (GPUs) need a fair amount of wattage. Don't forget that new motherboards may require a  8 pin EPS Power cable 12 volt  This cable is very similar to a PCI EXPRESS ADAPTOR but it is not the same thing. You will also notice the layout of the  connector is different. I needed this adaptor as the PSU did not have this connector. If you can find a PSU which includes the 8 pin EPS power connector that will avoid the need for this device. You will find many of the latest motherboards require this ATX_12V power. lots of technical videos. https://sites.google.com/site/ryzen7rig/ https://sites.google.com/view/tecchie/home https://sites.google.com/view/fxv300tech/home https://sites.google.com/site/soundsokok/ https://sites.google.com/site/windows10okok/
