CPU temperatures within limits? – Thermal Grizzly, Thermalright, Jeyi and Feng Zao LGA1700 frames in comparison test

Intel’s Alder Lake CPUs with their LGA1700 and Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) including the bending problem have been around for 9 months now. The successor CPUs aka Raptor Lake might not be long away, but it has already been confirmed that they will use the same socket and thus most likely ILM as well.

My HIS HD 6990 already managed 590 watts with the OC BIOS at the time and the three cards from 2012 presented today are also only just below 600 watts. And with two of the HIS HD 6990s, I [...]
