[@daunted232]

I agree that the radiator is a bit tricky to install, and it need not be that way. I followed the youtube video guide on installing it, and grasping the tubes with your thumb towards you, does keep it level so that you can thread it easier. Of course a particular way of holding the block/pump head, should not be required, but it does work.

[@DavidBSRK]

W, we want the x3D from amdddd!!!!

[@BigAndTattooed]

Ill wait for the X3D But you know lot of people going run out buy this cpu. Over spending while the 7800x3d is cheaper and better 😆

[@F1stzz]

...and absolute dogshit in productivity workloads 🤣

[@FakeTrev]

it all depends, x3d cpus arent as good for productivity and the 7800x3d has gone up some in prices. Plus the 9700x is half the wattage so its mostly just preference and your personal needs.

[@BigAndTattooed]

@FakeTrev obviously I wrote this 2 months ago when 7800x3d was $330.

[@FakeTrev]

[@joseperez-ig5yu]

Hey Markus, that's the most drama I've ever seen from you! I guess that build really had it in for you. I still was highly entertained by seeing you put in that extra effort to get it all done. Those RGB fans in front of the case did look kinda lonely. I imagine it was due to their smaller size. I look forward to your next YT upload.😅😊

[@TheGam1ngOwl]

That's really dissapointing imo that the 9700x got lower 1% lows than the 7700x in Spider-Man. I was really surprised to see that. This is the exact reason why i wait about 2-3 generations to upgrade

[@RicochetForce]

Bingo. It never made sense to me to upgrade PCs sooner than 3 gens. The gains gen-on-gen have been very weak for a long time.

The most incredible thing from this video to me is still DLSS. It's pure magic. From 85fps to 140+ instantly.

[@CarlosReyes-q2z]

@@ChairmanMeow1 Dlss reduces image quality though, and if you are buying a high-end GPU you shouldn't need to use less, I understand how incredible it is, and it beats FSR, but I wouldn't buy/use a GPU just to have to use upscaling

[@daunted232]

@@CarlosReyes-q2z Does "knowing it reduces image quality" ruin the image more than the visible effects themselves? Can you see the difference, and it looks bad, or do you feel like not settling for anything but the highest image quality?

[@CarlosReyes-q2z]

@@daunted232 It’s not a placebo, I can see a pretty clear difference in image quality, maybe turn it on if you are playing games where you require higher performance, but usually in games like Fortnite and other eSports titles, you're going to be using performance settings anyway, any in story games, you don't really need 140+ fps. Native resolution will almost always look better except for some very rare cases.

[@Hizamazuki]

Love the video, and great to see you reached the same conclusion as Gamers Nexus with the CPU, still I'm waiting to see the benchmarks for the new 9950x because I'm going to build a new pc for both gaming and working, so the extra cores will matter for me. The NZXT H7 Flow 2024 is not my style because of the huge gap under the gpu, but I'm not the biggest fan of NZXT in the first place, so might be bias. Excited for the upcoming builds with the new processors and new cases and motherboards coming the next few months.

[@xaviermurrow5779]

I recently bought this cooler and I did find it annoying install, but it wasn't that bad. You just need to press it into place a lot harder and lower than you think. The CPU does actually hang over the top end of the cooler which can be deceptive. But my temps are a lot better than my old Dark Rock Pro 4, but that's probably to do with the better paste. I will note the radiator is on the thicker side and interfered with my GPU when mount on the side of the case.

[@Vanblade1692]

The liquid freezer III was a stupid install for my main rig as well. It took me forever and I swore I heard the motherboard giving under the stress of holding the pump head in place. When I finally got the 2nd screw to bite I wanted to pray fealty to some kind of god. It took forever. Now I'm having small issues with my 7800X3D and I'm not 100% sure that I didn't crush something inside it with the pump head install. Screw that AIO, never again.

[@russellbower2557]

I did mine first try after watching someone who knows what they are doing. Its hard if all you're doing it placing it over the bracket and try to screw it down due to the leaf spring tension. Try getting one screw threaded about 2/3 of the way and then grab the block then force the other screw to mate with the other mounting hole and then tighten that one. Finish tightening the first one. Easy after you do it the first time.
