Justin, thanks so much for this video! I just ran across it this week while researching a choice between the 12700k and 12900k as I upgrade from 9900k. Currently have a full-size Torrent and Noctua NH-D15 cooler, which do a great job with the 9900k and a 3080 - your video convinced me that I should be able to manage the 12900k with that gear (and maybe an additional rear-panel fan added to the Torrent just in case, using a little undervolting and overclocking. Will also be adding a new CPU holddown frame, replacing the stock lever system, to keep the IHS as flat as possible to optimize cooling. Avoiding liquids in the box is a high-priority to me, but still want a system good for the next few years with GPU and VR-headset improvements along the way. Your work here is much appreciated, buddy - just the sort of info I was searching for, and more!

@@ViniCLplay Me too, at first, until I learned more about the 13s - the 13th-gen defaults to max full power with an excessive voltage (apparently to please reviewers, the high voltage means marginal non-binned chips can still hit the numbers but adds more wattage and heat unnecessarily since the chip doesn't need that much to run at peak performance), as I recall. So, allow it to run overclocked, but lower the max voltage - JayzTwoCents has done several good vids on this - find the one called "How to keep your CPU from melting" released about a month ago - a very simple introduction about making just one easy change to get started; you decide if you want to go further. My 13700K has "IA Offset" at -0.036v (your CPU may tolerate more or less, so you have to try/test to find out) and it lowered my CPU temps by 20-30C as I recall in Cinebench, even after boosting the clocks a bit. Easy to do with the Intel XTU utility as Jay shows. Good luck and have fun!

I originally cooled my 12600k with a Big Shuriken 3 but was getting up to 100C on Cinebench. I switched to a FrostFlow240 and replaced the AIOs fans with Noctua 120mm PWMs and also changed the 92mm 3-pin DLH21 case fan to a Noctua PWM unit. I did the same undervolt but no overclock and dropped the peak temps to consistently less than 80C. The other caveat is the GPU (6950XT) is a gd reactor and is the source of most of the heat exhausting from the case.

How are your temps this good? With this exact setup (just in a Torrent Compact case - shouldn't make much difference) I'm hitting around 99-100 degrees with Cinebench R23. I tried reapplying the paste 3 times and ended up swapping the NH-U12A for an NH-D15 (which dropped my temps around 2-3 degrees) and with the addition of the -0.075 undervolt it now sits at around 89 degrees, which seems manageable. But still, your temps are way, way lower. How was your room temp during this testing? Or is it just a binning thing or something?

Great video, thanks! I have one of those N7 NZXT cases you have in the background, I managed to squeeze in an NH-D15 for my current 8700k but I'm looking to upgrade to 12th gen. I have Noctua fans on the front, on the rear, and on the top (getting THAT in place with the NH-D15 was a nightmare!) and with my 3080FE in the build my current CPU doesn't go over 70C. Should I suffer the pain of trying to get the NH-D15 in again or would you say the U12A would be enough for a 12700k in that case (with its really limited front air intake)? [EDIT] July 5: The NH-D15 wouldn't fit the new motherboard, so I am using the U12A with the 12700k and it's perfect! Temperatures mostly in 50s and 60s when under load. Just make sure you install it the right way round or the plate doesn't fully-cover the CPU!

Hey Saeid! I read your comment and deliberately tested the difference for you when building my PC (Fractal Torrent, i2900k, Noctua U12A, Asus z690 Hero MOBO, basically mimicking this video’s build). My results came from stock voltages and only read in BIOS, so I did not use Cinebench because I got these readings before installing on OS. I kept the test perimeters the same with only orientation changing. (including thermal paste). in BIOS readings was 40C when vertical and 32C when horizontal. This is of course a huge difference! It showed me that despite the heat pipe concern, horizontal was significantly better.

Adding onto my comment, I let the computer sit in my bedroom, ambient temp 75F, for an hour. Then I ran memtest86. Then I let the pc sit while I did other stuff. Each time it was pretty consistent, vertical would start at 36C and then stabilize around 39-40C, where the other orientation would sit around 32C stable regardless. Obviously getting cinebench points would help more and undervolting would help temps, however I do believe a stable change of 8C is enough to answer that question! I also did the 1mm plastic washer mod to the lga1700 bracket preemtively, so I do not have a comparison with or without, but I had that same washer mod for both orientations. I used the thermal paste that came with the noctua cooler.

There are some interesting bios settings at play…I have an 360 aio and had temps running close to 100 (p core 2 and 5 specifically would spike) but would hit 27k in cinebench ( did not actually get any performance throttle ) updated bios and wouldn’t see temps over 90 but cinebench dropped in half closer to his performance.

Just finished my 12900k build yesterday. Got the NH-D15 installed and it’s great, but it’s also a pretty beefy boy. Seeing this video makes me feel, like i chose the wrong aircooler… Does it really outperform the D15? I haven’t tested any benchmark, yet. Since I‘m planing to play games on this PC for the most time, high temps won’t be an issue, cause they won’t appear. I still like to keep the CPU as cool as possible, now i feel stupid for buying the D15 without hesitating 😂

@@Hiter thank you for the reply! I build it into a BeQuiet 500DX Case, I guess airflow shouldn’t be the biggest issue in this case. It‘s not a fractal torrent, but it seems fine. Idle temps are about 30-31°C. I will run some benchmarks after work and keep you updated. Thank you again for your fast response, makes me feel a lot better now.👍🏻
