BucketCat 02/14/24 1:50:50 PM #33:	what are you planning on using it for? I think the i9 is overkill for 99% of people. Best off saving a few dollars to use towards other things you might wanna upgrade or peripherals Also, water cooling is a meme and a waste of money in my opinion. I have a heatsink + 2 fans as my cooler, and I very, very rarely exceed 40C for my CPU temps. The highest it's gotten was 47C under 100% load for over two hours. Obv your mileage may vary, especially because my case is designed for airflow and not exactly compact.
