Something like water cooling or at least an AIO.Ref - <a href="https://www.technipages.com/base-clock-and-boost-clock-explained" target="_blank">https://www.technipages.com/base-clock-and-boost-clock-explained</a>I personally think that going for Intel is not that much of a good idea right now. Specially with the Ryzen 5000 series releasing next month.</blockquote>
