EH "MUSTAFAR" is a dark, yet very expressive project inspired by the atmosphere of the Star Wars universe.
Black, red and fiery orange reflect the atmosphere of the planet Mustafar, where the final transformation of Anakin Skywalker into Darth Vader took place.
Fortunately, the i9-14900K remains cold in this configuration. Manual, precise adjustments and the phenomenal AIO from VALKYRIE, the DRAGONFANG 360 model, are responsible for this.
The CPU under full load around 290W (looped for 120 minutes CBR23) does not exceed 90C on the hottest core, there is no throttling or instability. During typical use such as gaming, the CPU occasionally exceeds 55C, also providing improved performance compared to factory settings.
The use of 9 additional VALKYRIE X12 fans translates into supplying cool air to the interior of the machine, which ensures excellent air flow inside the case and maintains low operating temperatures of components.
RTX 4080 SUPER STRIX OC is additionally manually overclocked by another 120 MHz on the core and 1000 MHz on the memory, allowing to enjoy great performance at a resolution of 3440x1440p. The configuration works with the ADW3423DWF monitor.
The machine will also be used for work, so the 48 GB of RAM is not there by accident.
Of course, as always, the configuration is precisely manually adjusted, and stability tests of the OC profiles took several dozen hours :)
