You guys can consider 12400 non K, come with fan

still better to put third party cooler, even cheap sub rm100 ones will be nice

I mean, if you’re budget building, this is great packaged.
Haha actually I bought 240mm AIO for these

walao really overkill, even 120mm is more than enough

Can play AI-overclocking 😂😂😂

which motherboard?

Asus B660G , paid already, not ship out yet 😅😅😅

can that do bclk overclocking?

hopefully intel won't force bios update on future motherboards to disable this since the K cpu is already have advantage over non K with the extra 2 E cores

noob question here.

does each of new generation cpu, non k especially on Core Voltage getting higher?

I am not too sure, but seem like can do overclocking

Based on 12400 non K
Base power 65W
Max turbo power 117W

examples of cheap coolers that come with lga1700 bracket?
(for those not using asus mobos)

Some guy on hwbot compiled a list of boards with external clock gens:
https://community.hwbot.org/topic/210553-in...-bios-versions/

Only Asus has B660 versions. No DDR4 boards have external clock gen, and only MSI has one for ITX.

Speaking of which, anyone knows when Alder Lake ultrabooks are coming to Malaysia? Would need to get a new laptop within next month.

well his was asus

Ancient aio with the old sliding screw mount for 1366 and 115x will fit

Speaking of which, any tips on how to find hynix dimms? Been flipping all the hyperX fury beast for the ETMH serial but all i found is ETMS and ETMM only.

I have Kingston 5600C40 (2 kits) and 6000C40 (1 kit).

5600C40 (1st) is Hynix. <= best overclocker
5600C40 (2nd) is Samsung. Returned to seller without testing it cos wrongly sent by seller.
6000C40 is Hynix. <= OC ability is so so only

I asked sellers to snap picture on the label before purchasing.

Nice. Still no luck for me. All i find is samsung jer at the moment. If that's the case i may as well just continue wait for klevv for the RGB lol.

Alder Lake ITX boards looks like upside down.

Asus ROG Strix Z690-I - RM2159 - DDR5 and ridiculous price
MSI Z690i Unify - Coming soon. DDR5
Gigabyte Z690i Aorus Ultra DDR4 - RM1549 - Feels overpriced and probably crappy BIOS

Asus ROG Strix B660-I - RM1199 - DDR5 for B660 and RM1.2k? Seriously.
Gigabyte B660i Aorus Pro AX - RM1089 - Single M.2 for a RM1k board? Seriously.
Biostar B660GTN - Coming soon

Can writeoff Asrock now. Declaring it as low quality brand.

Asrock Z690M-ITX/ax - RM1095 - weak VRM. 150W max
Asrock H670M-ITX/ax - Coming soon
Asrock B660M-ITX/ac - Coming soon

selling
apex z690 apex mobo only + dimm m.2 (no heatsink) + wifi atenna+voltician = myr 1.25k

Tempting but don't need another ATX. Thanks though.

Looking for ITX right now. Already got Lian Li A4-H2O case.
