  • The heat is going to exist somewhere. All the cooler does is move it from the CPU to the case, and the case fans move it to the room. A better cooler would heat up the room more, if anything. A 7700 is also nothing in comparison to a 6950XT. If you were worried about heat, the 4070 probably would have been better die to the far lower TDP.

    Also, cooling depends very heavily on the ambient temperature of the room and the other fans in the case. If your room is 30°C, tough shit, that CPU is going to have relatively high temps, and spending $100 on a huge cooler isn’t going to magically make it disappear. You’re ignoring all the other factors of your friends case.

    Honestly, fixing ventilation in your room might actually be more worthwhile for both your PC and yourself.

    Buy the parts you want, but don’t build up unrealistic expectations.
