January 11, 200818 yr I am trying to get a sense of what similar CPUs might run at idle using a good water cooling system. I am using air cooled with a thru the wall small air conditioner and my CPU runs at 34C at idle, at 54C at full FS9 load. I am trying to get a sense of how this will do with a Q6600 or God forbid if I have no impulse control, a QX9650.Noel Noel System: 9900X3D Noctua NH-D15 G2, MSI Pro 650-P WiFi, G.SKILL 64GB (2 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6000, WD NVMe 2Tb x 1, Sabrent NVMe 2Tb x 1, RTX 4090 FE, Corsair RM1000W PSU, Win11 Home, LG Ultra Curved Gsync Ultimate 3440x1440, Phanteks Enthoo Pro Case, TCA Boeing Edition Yoke & TQ, Cessna Trim Wheel, RTSS Framerate Limiter w/ Front Edge Sync.
