Grab yourself a Pint Glass or Xeon Coaster at https://craftcomputing.store

My pint-sized gaming rigis one of the fastest gaming PC's I've ever built. Featuring a 10729 ITX Motherboard + 13900H (ES) 14-Core CPU, along with an Asus TUF RTX 4070 Ti Super, there's no game that's off limits.

But, not everything was sunshine and roses... the 105W 13900H proved to be a but too much for the be quiet! BK034 low-profile CPU cooler, with the CPU regularly thermal throttling, and the side of the case getting too hot to touch.

Today, we're going to remedy that with a cooler upgrade and a shim mod to the motherboard IHS. But what kind of performance gains will we see on the other side?

But first... What am I drinking???
