ROG realbench
4.2ghz 1.080v 69C
4.5ghz 1.150v 79C
4.6ghz 1.180v 84C
4.7ghz 1.230v 91C
all of them are 10 hour runs
which one would you prefer? 80+ is a little hot or not?
4.5 @ 79 is best, after that you see diminishing returns for heat generated : GHz achieved. That's best if you're willing to sacrifice life span of the chip though.
Otherwise, 4.2 @ 69 will see the longest life span while still being an overachiever

80c is perfectly safe if you're not pumping a ton of voltage into it, especially if it's not sitting there all day. I'd probably go with 4.5 or 4.6ghz. That last 100mhz for 4.7 is only providing an extra 2% performance for probably something like 10-25% more power.

With a bit of creativity, you can probably fit a small AiO.
but it's probably not important as this can not be seriously overclocked system anyway.
I think im gonna choose that 4.5 @ 79C actually while gaming it's 50-65C which is fine I think.
If I wanted to I could get a smaller gpu and get a small AIO aswell
