Secured a 9800X3D chip today, the Thermalright Peerless and Phantom Spirit models are mostly sold out or at scalper prices right now. (USA)

I have a Dark Rock 4 Pro on my 5800X3D right now, I understand it is AM5 compatible.

Anyone know the thermal difference between the Phantom Spirit SE/Peerless vs Dark Rock 4 Pro? Will it be that much worse than a new Thermalright cooler?

I'm guessing it'll be fine?

I see some complaints on 7800X3Ds about bad temps with DR4Pro, my 5800X3D runs hot without PBO -30 all core, but I also have a poor cooling case. with PBO -30 I am 69C-85C depending on the game.

Hey there, PoE2 „inspired“ me to upgrade from AM4 to AM5 and therefore I would like to go for a Ryzen 7 9800x3d. Currently I’m using a Dark Rock Pro 4 and would like to know if someone has this setup in current use? Imo it should be suitable, but I would like to know this for sure beforehand and can’t find a lot of information about this comb online. Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!

Je mets à niveau mon processeur, passant du 5800x3d au 9800x3D, et j'ai un refroidisseur Dark Rock 4. Je ne sais pas si cela suffira avec le 9800x3D.

Hi there. I've just bought a Dark Rock Pro 5 after being a proud DRP 4 owner. I'm using it with a 9800x3D on a ROG STRIX X870E-E (expo profile enabled).

Temps worry me. Keep in mind I live in Southern Italy and there's 28° C in my room, yet temps are as follows:

• Idling on Windows: 55° C

• SilverBench online stress test: 89° C after 15 min running on Quiet, 87° C on Performance

• PassMark Performance Test: peaking at 95° C for a split second durint SSE test (maybe fans can't keep up, so I guess it should be fine), then it stabilizes.

When at full load, fans spin @ 1700 RPM as advertised with the Performance slider (1300 RPM on Quiet), so rpms are as advertised.

Those results come with case open, so airflow isn't an issue. Case closed I only gain 1° C more (I love my Dark Base 901).

I've already replaced the bundled thermal paste with an Artic MX-6 and noticed a few degrees better performance, but still sitting under par from my expectations.

I was expecting a better result to be honest. At the moment, the Dark Rock Pro 4 with a i7 12700K has a better idle temperature, sitting at 45° C in the same room, even if it has a slightly higher base TDP (5 W more than 9800x3D).

I was wondering what temps are you guys with similar setup having. Perhaps taking the same stress test to compare results?

And no, there's no plastic film left ;)

My current kraken x62 won't fit in my case once I have upgraded to a bigger gpu, which is why I'm trying to switch the cooler with a be quiet dark rock 4, that was purchased way before am5 was even a thing. Is the cooler really compatible and can the dark rock 4 handle the ryzen 7800x3D TDP?

Hi everyone! I'm new to PC building and currently planning my very first build. I’m considering using the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and would love to pair it with the Dark Rock Elite. Can anyone confirm if they are compatible? I have checked here https://www.bequiet.com/en/cpucoolercheck but i can not find the 9800x3d. Thanks in advance! (Also if it is compatible would you recommend it? I really like the esthetic but I do care also about performance.)

Or should I go for an AIO?

Will this cooler cut it without being very loud? I'm thinking of upgrading to 5700x3d if 5800x3d runs too hot. Keep in mind a new cooler will cost me extra 100$ in my country. It has to be silent. Would like to avoid that if I could get away with a cheaper cpu.

newly built with no OC.
It is plateauing at 97c as reported by HWInfo

This is probably too high right?

Hello, I recently have noticed over the past few months my CPU is running hotter than usual. The idle temps seem to be around 37C-42C, but in Cinebench the temps are going up into the mid 80's at times and sometimes there is even a 1 second spike to 90C (this only happens if the case fans are set to low, if they are set to normal it may go up to 85-86C).

If I run a 10 min benchmark it will stay at about 78C, but the more benchmarks I run they tend to get close to the mid 80's.

While gaming I cap my FPS to a maximum of 116 frames for my Gsync display, but the CPU generally stays in the mid to high 60C's. But if I uncap everything it is around the mid 70's while gaming.

Overall are these temps normal for this cooler? I would hate to repaste the thermal paste since this cooler was the biggest pain to get on in the first place, but also I am not sure if that would help since the case is also a bequiet case, and it only has two fans in the front and one int he back.

The system/mobo temp seems to be around 33C. The GPU is also rather large in it since it is a 4090.

Rebuilding my PC from the ground up, with a 9800X3D arriving in the mail tomorrow. My case showed up today, as well as the new Pure Rock Pro 3. I bought this on a sleepy whim the other night—Is anyone using one? What are the numbers looking like?
