A valuable purchase, some advantages!

For games, it’s better to take it than 11700 (and even more so 11600, 11500), there are a lot of tests where the number of frames in games is the same, but 11700 heats up almost everywhere by 10 degrees more. I took an OEM and bought myself a good cooler, since it is complete and noisy and cools much worse, and does not export an increased TDP at all.

Pros

Cheap (bought a year ago for 14400). Powerful - no friezes anywhere, easily pulls all tasks and games from 3060 Ti.

Cons

Maybe this is, of course, the peculiarities of my assembly, where not to put a cooler above 65mm (I found the heaviest in weight - no one canceled physics - the heavier the radiator, the more heat it can dissipate) - but in principle it is not cold. Not every motherboard will pull it in order for it to work at maximum frequency, I had to take the expensive Aorus B560i, but these are also features of a small case)
