Basically just the CPU fan, case, and PSU (if you’re lucky). If someone can figure out how to get Doom running on just those 3 things, young people will be able to ascend.

    The username was a bit of a giveaway.

    Their claim about Noctua is also not correct, or at least not generalisable to all coolers. I upgraded my CPU recently to a Ryzen 9 5950X, so needed to upgrade my cooler. The NH-D15 came out as one of the best options (that were also available second hand) when looking at cooling performance per dB. That ratio is what matters.

    I ended up spending about $45. It ended up not having all fan clips with it, but Noctua sent those to me for free.

      If you’re going to infer someone is stupid because you disagree with them, at least have the decency to explain how they’re wrong.

      BTW, the username is 100% bait: a certain fraction of social media users tend to make that “hurr hurr, username sure checks out” comment, letting me know the person making said comment likely isn’t worth taking seriously.
