00:59 Was I wrong about the AMD Ryzen 7 5800x running hot?
01:20 What happened to the 5800x?
01:34 It’s a great CPU, and a good buy – if you’re aware that it can run a hotter than other CPUs – generally speaking
01:53 Many of my viewers had similar heat issues, but keep in mind under 90c is still running with AMD limits so it is technically OK
02:19 Some motherboards can auto overclock, like PBO, and raise your temperatures too
02:44 I tried to test like at typical user, stock settings and no undervolting to get a feel for real world performance
03:21 Again, it is a great CPU – just get comfortable with its potential higher temperatures
03:30 Let’s test it with bequiet! Shadow Rock Slim 2
03:50 Slim profile – so great compatibility with ram, a huge issue with many air coolers – plus 160W TDP!
04:45 135mm be quiet! Fan – quiet and great airflow, 23.7 dBa
05:36 Installation is very simple
06:21 Let’s run some thermal tests – starting with CPU-Z Stress Test, room ambient 27C – test case is an open case Lian Li Dynamic Mini
8:10 CPU-Z 85c max package Temperature
08:25 Cinebench R20 88C, still under 90c AMD limit
09:25 Shadow of the Tomb Raider, CPU stayed 67 to 68c
10:05 3D Mark Time Spy brought up to 81c
10:25 Ashes of the Singularity, CPU Bound – 76c
11:05 This Shadow Slim 2 can handle the 5800x, which is a great chip, even if it runs a bit hot at times regardless of cooler
