That’s quite the monster rig. H150i enough to keep the 13900KF with reasonable temps?

no, it's struggeling, still trying to get the temps down. Maybe i'll have to switch to another cooling, not sure which though. That aside it runs fine so far. But certainly NOT happy with temps right now.
 
Yeah I thought so. Better cooling for this puppy doesn’t exist unless you go for dual rad water cooling. Quite insane really but then again for normal usage (non benchmark stuff) it should stay in the 80s which should be fine.

Unless you are hitting 90 C routinely, I wouldn’t worry too much.

yep, not really a well balanced cpu heatwise, but fiddling around with powerlimit (for example) helps more or less. Would be way worse if i'd use it for rendering. Also wish it had a better ui for fan control, but at least there's third party software for that.

As you've pointed out, there's nothing i could "fix" hardware wise to get better cooling. Well, it is what it is.

Always ;) lurking in the background, stealing inspiration from the masses.

Also, what tower /case is that @KAC ? I'm still rocking a silver LianLi PC70 ;) but I think it might be time to upgrade if I can find a big tower /case that I like.

That's one of the never versions of the Lian Li 011, it might be a 011 Dynamic EVO.

That is correct. It is Lian Li 011D EVO Dynamic bullshit case. Not big enough and difficult to work with. Last time I am building something in it. I think the 5090 will force my hand to upgrade to a better case etc.

The sound system looks excessive for a laptop. Is that for work?

No. I also listen to music on it.

Plus, I already had the speakers from when I had my desktop PC in its place. Sold the PC, kept the speakers, and got the laptop.

Edit: I am also an "audio whore." I love good sound systems.
