Hardware question, is it ok to use the original amd AM4 backplate to install the stand-off for a CM Hyper 212 cooler instead of using the CM provided plastic backplate. Just upgraded to a R5 3600 and dreading the idle temp.

QUOTE(John Chaser @ Jul 29 2021, 01:03 PM) Reddit says it's ok: Thanks for the reply. I just went and swapped it out.https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/...tm_source=share And so does the CM video embedded there. Also, anyone tried the new bios: https://wccftech.com/asus-rolls-out-amd-age...-compatibility/  Haha. Idle temps with the Hyper 212 is in the low 40s and at 30% load, the cpu temp doesn't rise above 57C. This post has been edited by dickybird: Jul 29 2021, 01:30 PM |
