Build your CPU cooler properly, not like me

Video Description

A while back I made a video on whether an air tower CPU cooler could manage to keep an i9-13900K cool. https://youtu.be/k0dYebv8txc I used the Corsair A115 CPU Air Cooler for this test which I also made a wiring guide for - https://youtu.be/eH2DY62FGcg It was pointed out to me that I should have used smaller RAM and two fans to show the proper performance of that cooler. Rather than just a single fan. So Corsair kindly sent across some shorter RAM so I could do just that, so here are the results. It's worth noting that obviously there are other factors outside of this test that could influence the results. For example, in the last test I was using an Asus motherboard which has AI overclocking that could have been skewing the results. This time I'm using a slightly different setup. Specs of which are below. Note that for the sake of fairness I've tried to keep the fan format roughly the same. i.e. 3 reverse blade TL120 Intake fans on the bottom 3 TL120 LCD reverse blade fans on the side 4 TL120 standard fans for exhaust Disclosure: Shopping links within the description of this video generate a commission at no extra cost to you.
