Yeah, not sure I'd be comfortable with this "fix" personally.

I built a PC in 2017

So you're not trying to chill a modern CPU then?

My latest build is a 9800x3d, and like fuckwit said, it's pretty easy to keep cool, even at full load.

I have a 9800x3d and with an NH-D15 g2 cooler it peaks in temp in like the low 80s. At work we have two 9950x3d machines with 120mm coolers and I dont think those even hit 80c under load. Most of the time they're in the 60s unless you're going balls out to stress test them.
