Alright, lets back it up a little bit. First of all, nobody here "destroyed their computers". Please stop being hyperbolic.

 

I did not gain any problems by swapping the case, instead I solved several problems. My heat level for the cpu and gpu is lower. The noise level under load is way down and there is no more thermal throttling. Granted I could have solved the thermal throttling problem by using XTU, but in my opinion that's just a bandaid for an underlying problem. A problem which you yourself acknowledged in your postings. The 120mm AIO is not up to the task. Furthermore the HP case only hase one 120mm intake fan on the front that is sitting behind (!) a glass plate. It has one outgoing fan that is only 92mm. No wonder the heat gets stuck inside the case.

 

Since you asked for benchmarks I went ahead and did some. CPU-Z, which I don't think to be a particularly good benchmarking tool is among them. I also used Cinebench and 3D Mark Night spy. With all these benchmarks I had hwinfo64 running in the background to monitor temperatures. The CPU only reaches 85c for a couple of seconds, as is evident by the average temperature numbers. I played Battlefield V for a few hours and my CPU hovers around 65c while the GPU is around 67c. All the while the noise level is about 35db, which is a huge improvement over the stock case.

 

For anyone reading this and considering a case swap: Please be very careful. I am an IT systems Engineer by trade and have been building PCs for 23 years now. A lot can go wrong with this, if you don't know what you are doing. So please consider my warning carefully, before "destroying your computers" ‌‌

 

Your turn to post benchmarks and temperatures (other than CPU-Z, which is not much of a benchmark).

Can't agree more with you, I was wondering how to more politely describe my disagreement with his statement as well, but I am glad that you jumped in before me.

I just want to emphasize again, there are no secret software tricks that no one knows about, lowering your temps and keeping your performance, there are no free lunches too. Intel are no idiots, if there was a way to keep the same performance and lower the temperatures with up to, and sometimes even more 20C, they would have done it. They would have not released the product the way it is, every single reviewer and computer enthusiast that is following the industry and has tested the I9 CPUs, current and last gen as well, will tell you that the temps are very hard to control even with 360mm AIO's, again there is no magic software that will allow you to keep the same performance and lower the temps! And if Intel were not the ones to implement that magic software, I am sure HP would have been the first to do it, oppose to ruing their reputation with releasing 30L I9 versions that sound like a leaf blowers and thermal throttle. 

At the end of the day, everyone can decide if the want to "destroy their computer" by migrating the parts to a bigger, better and a case that provides more airflow, in addition to upgrading their liquid cooling solution, to lower the temperatures to more tolerable levels.

Another Benchmark for comparison, because Whiskeycharlie1 posted an XTU benchmark a few pages back:

You can clearly see, my systems scores higher and runs cooler. I think there is no doubt about what solution is more permament. I would not want to use that stock cooling option during a hot summer.

I can only imagine the rate of RMA's when the summer comes along, HP support lines will be as hot as the I9 is.

But all jokes aside, a new case and cooling is a must, there is no other way around it. 

P.S. Oh and I really hope that they implement some better engineering solutions for the new generation, as what I am reading about the I9 11900K, things are looking even worst when it comes to temperatures.

I returned my omen yestoday to HP. Will build my own pc when rtx 3080 is avalble again. Witch i hope is soon...

HP Recommended

I hope that you can find one my friend, from what I am reading and hearing, things are not expected to go back to normal for at least 6 more months. 

HP Recommended

Yes.. But i wait🙂 and I Will countinue to follow u on yt👍

HP Recommended

My man! 👊

I really hope that you find something close to retail pricing, things are not looking good at the moment, with all mining and stock shortages, people are buying everything. I am seeing RX580s sold for $400+, it's absolutely crazy!
