According to this guy re-applied paste done nothing for the AsRock 5700XT challenger, but a slight undervoltage does the job. The card held higher avg clock after underVoltage and dropped temps a bit.

@F7GOS is here, go to igorslab for tweaking too

no,wraith stealth is terrible.90 degrees at 4 GHz


For this CPU I use now Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition with Phobya NanaGrease Extreme compund. Max temp at 4.2 GHz full load, 68°C.
This is acceptable. When I use Handbrake for video-encoding the temp stays around 63°C. Room temp is 22° and dual 120 fans in front intake.

It is quite interesting to see Hyper 212 Black on par with Arctic Freezer 34 Duo, however that is what shows up on overclocked benchmarks.
Fan noise is identical as well - the 212 Black is, in fact, less noisy until the high load scenario.
I'm surprised at its 160000hr mtbf rating, would like to test out the 212 LED non-EU version that comes with 280000hr 4th gen. rifle bearings. Almost a marketting play, although cannot be too certain.
