7800X3D - MORE 67mm Coolers from Thermalright and ID Cooling with the Terra!

67 millimet that's the magic number we are working with here today I got my hands on two additional coolers let's check it out with the 7800x [Music] 3D welcome to machines and more so as I found out after the previous video on the 7800x 3D fortunately the big shuriken 3 is no longer available so there is something else in the works but you can't get this cooler from most retail channels now so if you were looking for something in that 67 mm height range got to look elsewhere fortunately you have options and today we'll take a quick look at two more that you as you'll see will work just fine with the 7800x 3D first one is thermal rights ax 120 x67 the other one is ID coolings is- 67 XT so these tested coolers they were provided as test samples by the manufacturers at no cost to the channel big thanks to both thermal right and ID cooling full disclosure I not paid by either of the manufacturers for this review and you can expect a fair and well researched comparison here today okay so in plenty of ITX cases the 67 mm number is a good height to shoot for for example if you're air cooling the sub mesh Lous or the ghost S1 that's a good number in the form T1 V2 or Tera paired with a 2 and 1/4 slot thick card you can also fit 67 mm so these two should be quite useful for your ITX builts the thermalite a 120 x67 it's a 67 mm tall cooler you got six heat pipes with this one it is a nickel plated copper base plate and in addition to the bare metal version that they have here with a non argb fan they also have a white and a black version that uses a different fan it's non RGB it's a slim 120 mm fan fan and this uh according to your documentation can go up to 1,800 RPM plus orus 10% this one got up to 2040 RPM though so based on that spec it's a little bit faster but you know it's not a big deal compatible with am4 am5 LGA 115x 1200 1700 um on am4 am5 which is a topic in question today you can mount it with heat pipe tips facing the rear I/O where there's not going to be any Ram interference or you can mount it with a you know heat pipes facing in now this heat sink is fairly sculpted away where that overlap is as well so you have around 36 mm under the heat sink anyway so it'll still work with plenty of kits if you're forced into that mode but since I don't have a restriction on the reio side I opted to test with the no Ram interference mode there's not really a meaningful point to overlap it and both orientations they sit quite well on the msib B 650i motherboard so we'll just test the no Ram interference way because I think most of you want to run it that way it does H quite close to the top edge of the motherboard in the inverted layout of the fractal terara that also means it's quite close to the bottom of the case so it's nearly impossible to access the uh obscured fan clip that way so if you're mounting in a case like this my advice would be to mount the fan to the heat sink and then attach the cable to the motherboard and then make sure that all the cables that you need to access like the EPS cable those are all connected already and then Mount This Together the design of this fan it does make it very easy you can access the uh mounting points through the fan otherwise the install it's not very complicated and it goes together well the build quality it's it's pretty good and they also include a set of fan Clips if you have the space and choose to use a regular thickness 120 mm fan next up is ID cooling's new is- 67 which comes in Black like I've mounted in the case or white here so you can choose the aesthetic for your build and unlike the is- 55 which we look looked at in that previous 7800x 3D cooling video this one comes with a non-rgb fan and also has six heat pipes with a nickel plated copper base plate and they're doing something new which I really like and it comes down to how they've packaged the cooler spacers and Hardware it's a neat little plastic uh compartment box it's a little thing but it makes it so easy for you know for for you to identify these things um you've got different spacers the red ones I already took out and mount in but for team red you have the red spacers and you break them off it's actually kind of fun and for am4 am5 you have the decision to make you can install with the longer bars and the heat fins that will run horizontally at that point this one is a little bit awkward since it does put that heat pipe Bend at the top or the bottom of your motherboard however these shorter bars they make more sense and you will have fins running vertically at that point similar to the x220 when you have the heat pipes facing the rear iio you don't have any Ram interference if you choose to flip at 180° facing the ram you do have a similar amount of space under the heat sink that's like 36 mm or so so most uh lowprofile kits no problem there they do also include a rudimentary screwdriver for expedience which is nice if you don't have one handy and the fan attaches to the heat sink with screws which is convenient too I do like that more than messing with fan Clips you also get a longer set of screws for a regular thickness fan as well the fan it spins up a little bit faster here 22 200 RPM here you won't want to run it this fast especially in the Tera and what I did notice was that both these coolers also have an acoustic interference uh from the fractal Terrace side panel so if you are using this case do take note it's a little bit too close so unfortunately that side panel does amplify the sound quite a bit but I wanted to match the noise level from the big shuriken 3 in the fractal teror to test these two coolers so this is a noise normalized test with the panel closed these tests here UTI uze a blender render and I do have the CPU running on PBO both with a curve optimized and frequency boosted setting as well as an outof the boox setting here so I think this may give the general user a better picture of which cooler performs better I could also lock the voltage down like I've done in the past and just compare the temps but you know that's not actually how you're going to be running ryzen 7000 that's not going to be the way most users choose to run the CPU so if you're if you're going to want you're going to want to use a curve optimizer so this is a good way to test too so for the outof the Box test with the render both these coolers they do beat out the big shurik and three and the is- 67 it just edges out the a 120 here there's not a huge difference 1 second but um it's there one allowed to boost higher and with a curve Optimizer shutting of minus 30 interesting we still have around the same margins both of these coolers do seem to get more out of the 7800x 3DS boost algorithm than the big shuriken 3 so look at The Thermals uh they're absolutely not meaningful here because the Boost algorithm is not going to be running these uh the CPU at the same power level depending on the cooler it's getting so um it can vary based on a variety of factors but just for reference here both of these coolers they end up with the CPU a bit hotter and that's not to say that the thermal performance isn't good because the amount of power that the CPU is getting when we test this way it's going to vary based on how good that cooler is and the CPU is actually getting quite a bit more with both of these coolers it's giving the is- 67 XT the most power here presumably it's more effective at drawing away the heat from the CPU so the CPU is willing to give more power and boost higher for longer with the better coolers so both of these are Mighty impressive and the i67 does seem to be the best performer out of the bunch here by a little bit one thing to watch out for is the Acoustics like I mentioned unfortunately for this highight in proximity of the fan to the fractal Terrace side panel both these coolers have a bit of added noise from the side panel so let's take a quick listen at the fan noise for [Applause] reference fan 75% it's the is 67 the tensive noise careful got the you know 18800 RPM panel open Panel close you can definitely hear it pick up sound quite a bit as a reference at the max speed for the thermal cooler the closing the side panel added about 4 DB the higher the fan speed the greater the magnification here so if you are a a frankal Terra user if you can limit it to around about 70% pwm with this CPU I think it'll work just fine uh the you know the side panel noise it won't be as pronounced and for reference the is- 67's noise normalized fan pwm was 77% so yeah both are excellent choices for the 7800x 3D very important aspect here is how well the heat sink is able to conduct heat away from the CPU and both of these appear to be top tier was forced to pick one then I would go with the is 67 that's not necessarily because of the performance aspect I just think that you know the installation and the packaging experience little things like this is just that little bit better especially for a firsttime builder you have less things to worry about you have more mounting positions with that one and that little performance bump is just icing but a very very very thin layer of icing so it's about $40 before any promotions the ax 120 from the thermal R Amazon store it's uh $43 or so right now so they're pretty similarly priced thermalite does have that white or black version which is priced a lot lower but that will be a different argb fan so the performance characteristics they're likely to be different there I haven't tested that version but you it may work uh just fine as well so thanks for checking these out with me I'll leave the links down below so please check these out both are great coolers if you enjoyed it please like subscribe thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next one [Music]
