I’ve been needing to upgrade my CPU and was thinking of a 14700k. I’m currently using a ID-Cooling ZoomFlow 360 XT 360mm to cool my 12600kf with no issues and was wondering if that would still be fine for the 14700k? What are peoples thoughts? Thanks.

    I’m using the ThermalRight Phantom Spirit SE with Arctic MX-6 on my 14700KF and DDR5 running at 7200 MHz via XMP. No Thermal throttling in Cinebench Multicore. It goes to 95°C and uses up to 300 watt, but the Phantom Spirit can handle it.

    The two massive fans in my Fractal Design Torrent Compact Black Solid probably help as well.

      Try to run y-cruncher or prime 95 small ftt , and report back if the cooler can handle it, cinebench is not even that heavy test.
