That's the highest Package temp reported by HWInfo...CPU temp aggregate at 42 deg. Will post in some detail after some Prime95 runs, but this is awesome performance for passive.

That is impressive: https://www.anandtech.com/show/17240/the-noctua-nhp1-passive-cooler-review/3

How do the VRMs hold up with reduced airflow?

HWInfo isn't reporting any VRM temp values...kinda weird. Aida64 also doesn't report.

For those who had no clue like me, "this is a big cooler"

Some detail: https://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?threads/fanless-build-thread.12001/

Fanless 10700k, 50 deg, is this magic?!! My 3900X is about 42 - 45 under an AIO...

Idling at 42-45 with an aio? That doesn’t sound right, my new 12700k idles in the very low 30s with my noctua d15s with a single fan at like 500rpm

@SoupRKnowva the NH-P1 isn't an AIO. It's a fanless cooler that relies on convection to do its job. The idle temps are relatively high as it's a limitation of the cooler's thermal mass without any forced air flow.

@SoupRKnowva Sorry. I must be blind!

I suspect it must be my bad installation or something. But since the full load temp can hardly reach 80, I think it's fine? So I just leave it there...
