Liquid Cooler risk?

[86technie]

tks guys for the replies! just wondering only and i set it to auto lol

Do also invest in a better thermal paste as well like Noctua NT-H1
which you can get from Global Cybermind Sim Lim Square.
A better grade thermal paste will ensure better contact and thermal transfer between CPU and the cooler.

If there is no issue with auto, then leave it be. Running it at 100% may reap little benefits over default settings, and instead, cause issues since it will wear out the fan motor and water pump faster. Unfortunately, most products are not meant to work at 100% or anywhere close, for prolong period of time. You can do that for some time, but it will surely have a negative impact on the longevity/ durability of the product in the longer run.

From what I understand inconsistent pump speed up and down will have adverse effects on the pump protection against corrosion.

Fan speed can be adjusted between 70% to 85% for noise control, however pump speed is better fix at certain norminal % to make it consistent.

I think it goes both ways. If you run the pump at 100% all the time when it is not built for it, its gonna affect longevity. If you set it to fluctuate base on system settings, it may cause problems with longevity. At the end of the day, my believe is to just use it as it was designed. I do run the fans at a fixed RPM sometimes, but that's on a case by case basis where default setting is causing issues. Nothing is meant to last. If they last for a long time, it means manufacturers won't get recurring sale anytime soon.

For the pump I not too sure if there are defaults reference, perhaps some are controllable through software.

As for my aio I rely on bios setup and my Asus board AIO pump header was default run at full speed not adjustable unless I manually change it's setting.

Not too sure about other motherboard AIO pump header though.

What I meant was for the same AIO unit put on different motherboard could have different default references from BiOS perspective.

Scared don't buy, buy don't scared.

Buy Ferrari or Rolls Royce also will break down.

Btw is fuma 2 or mugen 5 compatible with 12700? Need buy separate 1700 bracket?

Scythe had already released revisions of these coolers which come packaged with the LGA1700 mounting bracket.

For the Fuma 2 Rev. B, make sure the back of the packaging clearly states the model number as SCFM-2100.

For the Mugen 5 Rev. C, make sure the back of the packaging clearly states the model number as SCMG-5200.

I have my own opinion, both watzup_ken and Yongkit have your point. I strongly agree not to use PWM on pump. set it to a fix cycle. yes motor pump will not last but think about it.. Liquid AIO are never meant to last forever. Max Lifespend is about 5 years or so. For me I just run the pump at 100%. my Arctic liquid Freezer II 280 is running at that speed since year 2019 December till now.. no issues or whatsoever, but my Germany friend who gotten this AIO for me back then is also using this AIO (Anyway these two AIO were purchase at Germany IT Fair, buy one get one free lol) his broke down this year april and he just leave it as auto which fluctuates the pump cycle speed. Anyway these are Rev 01 AIOs. Rev 02 03 04 05 and 06, even they are connected or daisy chained on one connector. there are no rpm control on the pump, only the fans. if you dont believe you can try this. remove the fans from the splitter, connect to CPU_FAN1 and plug the pump at W_PUMP.. there will only be readings on the fan and not the pump, therefore the pump is running at full speed.

My NZXT X60 cooler served me for years and years and outlived my Asus RIVE mobo.
After that buy X62 also outlived my 8700K rig which I sold.
Now using Z63 (got LED display toy in front lol) with my 10900KF. Problem free. NZXT 4eva, pay a little bit more (not much more also) and get good stuff, your PC is worth it!

ps btw I never turn off my PC, it doubles as my home server

my coolermaster 240 with i5-3570k oc to 4ghz still running till today.

but my amd ryzen with another AIO . can't rem the brand but local d is tech dynamic .bot in 2018 fail during ** time lucky still got warranty. RMA

so depend of brand yes
