Hi guys!

My old ITX-system is nearly dead after 9 years and I need to build a new one. I did not follow the development of the last years in detail, so I am a bit off with current technology. Can you please give me some advise to my currently planned system? As I am concerned about CPU (105 Watt) and CPU-Cooler.

Usage: Gaming in 1440p (Max Details) or 4k (Medium to Max Details)

Case: SilverStone Sugo 16 Black

Main Board: MSI MPG B650I Edge WIFI

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X --> Question here is, if it is not overkill to have an 105 Watt CPU in that tiny case?

CPU-Cooler:
Thermaltake TH120 ARGB Sync --> Question here is, if it is able to keep the CPU in acceptable temperature ranges?

Thermal Paste:
Alphacool Subzero

Graphics Card: MSI Radeon RX 6750 XT Mech 2X 12G OC, 12GB GDDR6, HDMI, 3x DP (V399-004R)

PSU: SilverStone SFX Series SX700-G (Rev. 1.1)

RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 black DIMM Kit 32GB, DDR5-6000

Main SSD for the operating system: Western Digital WD BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD 2TB, M.2

Mass Storage: Samsung SSD 870 QVO 4TB, SATA

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11 Home 64Bit
 
eh, you can make it work
yeah, sorta. it will work and will be withing spec but it will be quite toasty and wont boost as high for as long.
a ps120se or pa120se would probably be better than a 120 aio. they hang with 240mm aios.

Hi pendragon1!

You maybe right that it could be too hot in there. My option could be to go with the Ryzen 7600 (without X) and overclock it a bit with AMD’s Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO). As cooler then the Noctua NH-L9a-AM5 would be possible as it seems to be sufficient enough.

This I would combine with the following fan setup:

TWO Arctic P12 PWM (One in the Front as output fan, One in the rear as input fan - sounds to be a bit strange, but the airflow in this case is somehow designed back to front, as the PSU-fan-output goes to the front...)

COMBINED with this Phobya fan distributor, as the MoBo only has cpu_fan (24 Watt), sys_fan (12 Watt) and pump_fan (36 Watt) - so I could control front and rear fans with the sys_fan connector (I believe at least?): https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00OD7M...ZP&creativeASIN=B00OD7MO6E&tag=geizhals-am-21

OR does an 4-pin PWM-Y-Cable also work on the sys_fan connector to control the fron and rear PWM-fan?: https://geizhals.eu/noctua-na-yc1-chromax-black-a2308913.html

you can if you want but i wouldnt limit yourself with a low profile heat sink like that, you have the room in your case for a proper sized heat sink. you dont need any extra fan control. you have 1 front, 1 back and your cpu. if you end up with a heat sink that has dual fans, like id still recommend, it will come with one.
