CPU Heatsink plays an important role in PC Thermal Performance
The cooling system in a computer involves multiple fans and heat sinks, which work together to quickly remove the heat from various components from the chassis. A PC running too hot can be noisy and unable to perform at its best. Every PC has a CPU cooler, but most computers do not have very good CPU coolers. It may be enough to prevent your processor from overheating, but cheaper coolers do not have enough size or power to truly achieve the highest performance of your processor, and even if they do, the noise level is far from ideal.
Upgrading the CPU heat sink can greatly improve PC cooling and reduce noise levels.
There are many different CPU coolers, from large air coolers with giant heat sinks and fans to more compact liquid AIO water coolers. Anything will be an upgrade to Intel or AMD inventory cooling, but the more powerful the features, the quieter the cooler, and the lower the CPU's performance. Customized water cooling circuits can also be considered. They are easier to set up than you imagine.
Upgrade graphics card heat sink:
When the computer is running at full capacity, your graphics card will always be working hard. This means it will become very hot, and if your GPU cooler is not particularly powerful or quiet, it will generate a lot of noise. For most users, upgrading the graphics card heat sink will be a safer choice. If you are only pursuing performance, simply purchase a high-performance air-cooled heat sink. However, if the noise level is more important, a liquid cooled GPU radiator can be considered.
Upgrade the cooling fan:
The CPU and GPU cooler can only operate in the air provided to them. If no cold air enters the shell and nothing can blow out the hot air, they will only continue to recycle the same warm air until everything becomes loud and hot, which is not beneficial to anyone. Upgrading the system fan can help improve noise levels and temperature by improving airflow circulation. You need at least one intake fan and one exhaust fan, but more can provide assistance. Larger fans are quieter, so 120mm is often quieter than 90mm, and 140mm is quieter than 120mm. If you have a water-cooled radiator, ensure that its fan has high static pressure to keep air passing through the fins, and ideally ensure that any intake fan is behind the dust filter.
There are many ways to improve PC cooling, and the most effective way is still to upgrade the performance of the heat sink. It can be seen that the design of heat sinks is very important and indispensable in the application of electronic devices.
