15 fucking years later and sealed loops are STILL complete garbage, somehow managing to be WORSE than most air coolers. How the hell is this still a thing? When will this utter nonsense end? Or are PC gamers so obsessed with LEDs that they can't understand?
Companies pandering to normies who don't want to deal with building custom loops but want bragging rights.
>>107531267>bbbzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *pfffsssss* *dripping sounds*
>>107531267>When will this utter nonsense end?until people stop buying it
>>107531267I will get permanent Barbie and Epstein tattoos before the time I install water inside of my computer. LMFAO
>>107531267Don't buy Corsair garbage, buy Arctic Quality.
>>107531669You know they're the same technology, same cheap pumps and same flawed design that makes the pumps break right? (evaporation leads to bubbles which in turn ruin the pump)
>>107531669It's all the same shit inside.Same pumps same coolant.
>>107531669/thread
>>107531669This LF III changed the game. >>107531716>>107531855Retards, they are literally in house.
>>107531267>15 fucking years later and sealed loops are STILL complete garbage, somehow managing to be WORSE than most air coolers.Which by every metric is incorrect you know? You can look up benchmarks.
>>107531955>falling for obvious bait
>>107531947What about flawed design is difficult for you to understand?
>>107531966Everything has flaws to a degree, specially in engineering. This is the *least shit* we got outside of custom loops or phase change and far better than anything heatsink only.-
>>107531267>>107531955>>107531961>>107531966Lmao
>>107531988>>107531267>>107531955>>107531961>>107531966LMAO almost not even funnyHave fun pretending anything else, bye
>>107531988>>107531996Based LFIII chad.
>>107531988>>107531996the people you're replying to literally can't read those charts you realize? otherwise they would not even have dumb assumptions like that
>>107531267> 15 fucking years later and sealed loops are STILL complete garbageAlways have been a total scam to garnish money from people that are too lazy to build a proper water cooling rig.Those kits simply don’t have enough liquid to make proper use of the higher heat capacity nor enough surface or airflow on the heat sink.
>>107531985>and far better than anything heatsink only.-In terms of cooling performance, sureCertainly not in terms of reliability. The problem is no stock CPU has a TDP that needs that extra cooling performance beyond what a good heatpipe cooler has.And if you're overclocking you'd want a custom loop anyway.
>>107532000lmao fail trips samefag
>>107532032>And if you're overclocking you'd want a custom loop anyway.That's the thing, you don't need a custom loop anymore for OC. See >>107531996
>>107532040>03:16:55>03:18:14>03:18:43you ok m8?
>>107532071For the last time, the issue with AIO coolers isn't their cooling performance but their reliability.
>>107532092Sure, definitely more failures then tower heatsinks. Then again I've had like... 7 or 8 since 2013? Never had a single issue. Still have a shitty Corsair one like OPs running in my low wattage router that I've had since around 2015. I guess the question is, if it's worth the risk, since even price wise a good AiO like the LFIII is cheaper and even the manufacturer is sure enough to give it extended warranty by default.
>>107532106>Then again I've had like... 7 or 8 since 2013? Never had a single issue.Second this and thermal performance isn't even their best metric
>>107532120True, it's fucking awesome to have your PC run inaudible even under heavy load. Coil whine is a bigger issue at this point.
>>107531996>69c vs 82cthat's a big fucking difference retardtemperature isn't linear

>>107531988>>107531996>>107532106Closed loop coolers are goo..... ACK!
>>107533151>literally a cooler from 13 years ago when the design was shit and cheap
>>107533151>2012>Closed loop coolers are goo...Good, yes.
>>107533183>>107533184Hivemind.
>>107532125>inaudible even under heavy load.why do you lie on the internetyou would need one on the gpu too
>>107531988nice cope, but I'm sticking with custom loops.
>>107533309At that point go with phase change cooling, not even memeing.
>>107533266>why do you lie on the internetsee >>107531996>you would need one on the gpu tooGPU cooling have been solved for years now though. CPU cooling wasn't until we got shit like LF III. GPUs have usually bigger dies too, so heat distribution and exchange is much easier, making them easier to keep cool, meanwhile CPU dies are small and consecrated. Like total die surface of a 300W GPU and 200W CPU is much bigger even at the same node, even if the GPU takes much more power.Example, even my 4080S that easily eats up 380W, has a factory heatsink that can keep it between 65C and 70C (a GPU that only starts throttling at 85C, so there's even headroom to further tweak the fan curve) at less than 30% RPM, which is not something you hear in a closed side case under your desk.
>>107533317>GPU cooling have been solved for years now though.>"solved"
>>107533386Yes, beefy heatsinks, designed for those PCs and with plenty of space, unlike CPU heatsinks. I don't see your point or where the problem is, it actually works.
>>107533391>those PCsPCBs* derpAlso to add to >>107533391>>107533317>GPUs have usually bigger dies too, so heat distribution and exchange is much easier, making them easier to keep cool, meanwhile CPU dies are small and consecrated. Like total die surface of a 300W GPU and 200W CPU is much bigger even at the same node, even if the GPU takes much more power.
if you dont like it then dont buy it, nobody has a gun to your head there are many different options. why does it make you so angry anyway? let people enjoy things
>>107531988>>107531996if its so amazing how come servers are still air cooled
>>107533415>but how does this affect you personallyCertified low-iq brainrot take.
>>107531267I love this nigger sooo much!
>>107533419Depends on the servers and datacenters. Plenty use liquid cooling, it's nothing weird anymore in that field.
>>107533451>Plenty use liquid coolingbut most dont, why is that
>>107533455Not required in that scenario then, it's still about profits first for commercial use.
>>107533317>>107533402>consecratedconcentrated* should go to sleep, it's 6am
>>107533421>but how does this affect you personallythis but unironically, you are red in the face because people are buying things you dont like. it is unhealthy to be emotionally invested in the products you buy
>>107533466>Not required in that scenario theninteresting and why is it required on a consumer desktop
>>107533553>you are red in the face because people are buying things you dont likeit's true, idk why AIO people are so angry at air cooler people.
>>107531669Arctic LF III is the white man's choice. Silent AND extremely cool - German engineering at its finest.
>>107533672>and why is it required on a consumer desktop>>107531996>250W>25 dBA>48C
>>107533672not wanting your computer to sound like a turbofan under load with plenty of thermal mass for modern boost algorithms?
>>107533678People retarded shit like OP says? One thing to ignore, totally different if you attack someone and expect them to ignore your attack. This is supposed to be a place for tech discussion, imagine if on PornHub someone starts making up shit about your mom.
>>107533713When people say*
>>107533713>imagine if on PornHub someone starts making up shit about your mom.kek based
>>107533672>and why is it required on a consumer desktopDefine "consomer". That's a wide category from 5W systems to 1500W systems.
i only got a cooler master 212 for my 245k or whatever i bought todayam i gonna die
>>107533785retard
My rig came with a watercooler and if it dies I'll shrimply swap it for another 212 evo since that thing did great in my older rig
>>107534480yeah i think the 212 format can't be beat. big ol heat sink with copper pipes and a fan. anyone trying to improve on it is a meme. i ran that from like 2009 -- 2019 until i couldn't get it to fit with a ryzen and had to use their wraith cooler which sucked
>>107531267Very first Linus Tech Tips video I watched was him making a water cooled system that connected to a radiator outside his house. He didn't like that the existing cooling solutions dumped heat into the room the computer is in. He used copper plumbing, which was the worst possible choice since copper conducts heat, dumping most of it into the room he was trying to stop from heating up. This was before I knew he intentionally does stupid things to get attention so I raged at his moronic solution. The basic idea might have been fine if he used insulated PVC instead of copper but the attention and clicks must flow.
>>107531267Nah I am done with giant twin towers that block everything and cut my hand.The issue with AIO was the price that and that have been solved, unless you get fancy LCD shit but that's your problem.If you have phobia of leak then may be it's still legit reason to not get them.
