“To the folks who have received this computer, first congrats! And second how are the temperatures treating you? That’s my main question with this system, is the cooling adequate for such high powered components. Thanks!”

I ordered this for my son and the cooling is not adequate in the long run. The rad for the CPU features both a push and pull fan on both sides of the rad as an exhaust out the back of the case. There are two fans on the metal side of the case that are also exhaust fans. That's it as far as cooling goes. I added 3 fans to the top as exhaust fans and reversed the metal side fans and made them intakes. This keeps the cooling somewhat adequate for now (the CPU and MSI Ventus 3080 both sit in the 60-70 C temp wise under load with this setup). The i9 10900K really needs a 360 rad but this case does not allow one as the CPU power cable would be in the way at the top of the case and the front is blocked off with a solid front panel. All that said, I still think this deal was worth it as if you add up the prices of these components you come out pretty well and you could always add say a Corsair Airflow 4000D case for like $80 and move all the components over to it.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.With the default setup, I was hitting 100c. I initially just flipped the rad fans to intake and that dropped my temps to the 70s under load except for AC: Odyssey. For some reason that one was still hitting mid 90s on a few cores. I then moved the push fan to the top as an exhaust and replaced it with a high static pressure fan and put another in the front by the drive bay as an intake. I now have an all core boost of 5.1 and have seen 5.4 single core with temps in the high 60s low 70s under load. AC will still push a core or two up to a peak of 90-92 during long sessions. (That is peak though) The 3080 also dropped about 10c avg from default fan setup. The 3080 now maintains about 64c under load with a custom fan profile.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I was flummoxed by the ridiculous temperatures I was getting (100 C BSODs under load for 20 minutes, idling in the 60s and 70s) and thought the AIO was broken. After spending a day troubleshooting I decided to pick up a 360 mm AIO. Now this beast of a machine is adequately cooled (very heavy load right under 80 C, medium to heavy load 60-70 C, idling at 35 C) and everything works great. The person who said the 360 mm AIO doesn't fit is wrong but I can see why he though that. It's very tight to make it work but there's literally just enough room between the rear hole, radiator and power connector on the MOBO to get the power cable plugged in. Took me like 10 minutes to finagle it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Try turning off MCE (multi-core enhancement) bios. Apparently, ASUS boards comes with it automatically enabled. When enabled, it overclocks all cores producing excessive heat. Worth a try.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can add a 360 rad at the top.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I put max frequency of the cpu at 4.7 instead of default 4.9 helped a lot. Graphics card temp goes down about 8 degrees if I take the side panel off. Great specs on this pc but air flow and Temps are terrible
