Take a look at this BeQuiet Light Base 900! Huge amount of cooling potential allied to great looks. And not just because it’s orange and your writer loves orange. Nope. It’s a gorgeous thing and available in four models. Lush.
It’s also worth giving a shout-out to the MSI 271QRX QD-OLED for being a fantastic monitor for the price. Getting the chance to see such rich colours and deep blacks makes the whole, tedious, process of benchmarking endless hardware that much more pleasant. It’s like a Swedish Massage for your eyeballs.
Clock Speeds
With so much power under the hood it is no surprise that the Strix X870E-E easily manages to run our Ryzen 9 9900X smoothly. This is the sort of motherboard that wouldn’t break into a sweat running the Ryzen 9 9950X overclocked if necessary.
