1700 and a Radeon VII - both with $30 water coolers and strapped together with zip ties.

Few notes:

  • CPU clocked to 3.9 and it doesn't break ~50c.
  • GPU clocked to 1900 / 1150 and in long gaming sessions it will get up to 60c for the core and 100c for the junction + 20% power and undervolted a little.

While I normally wouldn't recommend zip ties... they work. My next move is going to be to sand the GPU cooler since it was a little rough and could use the work. People are pretty concerned about VRMs, but I solved that by adding a 'door' fan that blows directly into the vrms, which keeps them nice and cool.
