r/Noctua

Moved my components out of a Fractal North and into a new case, the Jonsbo TK-4. We’ve got all Noctua fans and the 420mm Noctua AIO in this bad boy. Couldn’t be happier with her.

After getting the aio, I had no use for the nhd so I figured I might as well slap those fans into this build.

Seeing this thing in the 30’s at idle and low 70 while stress testing brings me enormous amounts of joy.

Noctua X Thermal Grizzly was a match made in heaven.

Hey everyone,

In short: I ended up turning my gaming PC into a dedicated workstation.

Instead of jumping to AM5, I decided to see just how far I could push the AM4 platform. After about a month, it's finally running. ( not completed tho! )

Specs:

• Motherboard: ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero (X570)
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D + Noctua NH-D15S (modded with dual fans + plastic shroud)
• RAM: 128 GB (4x32 GB) G.SKILL Trident Z Neo DDR4-3600 CL16 (F4-3600C16Q-128GTZN)
• Storage: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500 GB NVMe, Apacer AS2280P4 1 TB NVMe, 2 TB SATA SSD

GPUs:

• GPU 0: MSI GeForce RTX 3090 GAMING X TRIO 24GB - custom deshroud bracket on the way, planning 2x Noctua NF-A12x25
• GPU 1: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3090 GAMING OC 24GB - deshrouded with 3x Noctua NF-A9
• GPU 2 (Host/DWM): Gigabyte RX 9060 XT 16GB -200 MHz core / -95 mV undervolt, deshrouded with 2x Noctua NF-P12 PWM, it also helps to push cool air to the MSI 3090

The two RTX 3090s run in PCIe 4.0 x8/x8 via CPU lanes, and the display card runs via the chipset at PCIe 4.0 x4.

Chassis, PSU:

• Case: FSP U500 ( more Noctuas incoming ) and I love this chonky case.
• PSU: FSP Hydro PTM PRO 1000W Platinum, semi-passive fan curve stays off until ~300W load. It handles the whole rig without breaking a sweat, as both 3090s are undervolted and hard-capped at 250W each.
• Monitor: Samsung Odyssey G5 32" 1440p 144Hz

Overall, I'm really satisfied with the results. The 3D-printed shroud duct for the CPU cooler directs airflow over all 4 DIMMs, keeping memory temps well within check during sustained load.

The chassis has space for two massive radiators, so the next project might be custom water cooling for the 3090s.

Cheers,
bceen

I built this pc in 2023 but the only Noctua part was the nh-d15. This year, i completed the build by adding Noctua case fans.

Build my noctua pc got recommendations from noctua support themselves(planning on replacing the psu shroud) with 140mm noctua g2 but idk if i should buy a set or not as the left one is blocked by the psu a dark power 14

Note Top noctua fans are considered optional from the noctua engineers

Would like to get recommendations from you guys about my setup
