Coil noise bothers me far more than any fan ever will.
Back when me and my brother got PS3 slims mine had coil whine that made me want to bash my head into the wall. One day I convinced him swap consoles because the other one didn't have that issue and my brother never once complained about it. It was totally worth starting over in Demon's souls to get rid of that fricking whine.

Not only the leaking, but the pump itself is another potential point of failure. Pump don't work, cpu overheats.

I considered it just for the sake of noise. It's annoying how much the fans in my PC ramp up and down as I'm trying to record
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Hydraulic or magnetic fans are pretty silent aside from the actual airflow noise. I outfitted my current build to be as silent as possible and I really only hear it at full tilt.
This is assuming you have equipment that dissipates heat well, and a case with good airflow and mounting points.
The latest Nvidia cards make this a pain.

Something about the ryzen5 i guess, it likes to ramp up the fans over nothing. I tried different profiles
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
It's not the cpu, the cpu will just consume as much power as you make it. This is a simple fan curve fix, try this. https://getfancontrol.com/
My curve is exponential, to 15% speed until 60 degrees C, 40% speed at 75, and 100% at 85. Whisper quiet when gaming, no sound at all when not gaming.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
I read something that said it's normal for the temperature to jump up rapidly on ryzen as it does some burst bullshit, so any temperature-based fan control will quickly reach higher speeds. It'll jump like 25-30Β°C in a couple seconds

That's why you make the fan curve exponential, so it goes from 20% to 40% fan speed instead of 20% to 80% during those bursts

Your fan profiles suck. I keep the case fans at 40% until 70C. Then it ramps slowly to 70% as it approaches 90C. After that it's max speed. It's never ramped up that much.
My air cooled CPU is a little different. I have a long ramp from 50%-80% from 30-60C. It's flat until 90 and after that it's at max with the case fans. This is all experimenting with noise levels vs fan speed. Basically I turned the fans up as fast as possible just before the noise got annoying.
Is it noisier than fans off? Of course but it's pretty quiet and the constant sound is less annoying than random ramping. I discovered that running the cpu fans a little faster than they "have" to is preferable to having them ramp up all the time

My processor likes to randomly jump to 80Β° for a few seconds at a time if I do basically anything. I'd need to put some kinda delay on it.
Jump in the discussion.

I forgot about that. I have a 3900X that does a similar thing. My smoothing is set to about 4 seconds to help absorb those spikes. Also, that's kind of the point of having the fans at a higher speed in the first place. You have the air already moving over the fins the exact instant the temp spikes. The cooler then works instantly instead of letting the cpu get even hotter as the fan speeds up and the air starts moving.

Without some sort of active cooling to lower the liquid temperature beyond room temp, it seems like liquid cooling would be meme period.

Liquid is like making your cpu 10x as big. The radiator has more surface area than any heatsink and the water moves the heat to it very quickly.
The only downsides are leaks and pump failure, which are bad enough that it's not a good value

I can't disagree. Someone in my hometown welded a light pickup bed onto a sedan front (don't ask me how this was even accomplished), spray-painted it black, and slapped a giant chrome spoiler on the tailgate. "Heck Camino" was sprayed in red across the side.

Here's the secret to buying graphics cards:
1. Get the cheapest AMD card with 16GB VRAM that you can find. You'll pay maybe 300 bucks.
2. You're done.
Enjoy the next 6 years. Turn on upscaling or frame generation if you need more fps. The lossless scaling app on steam works for every game.

Is this bait? Go ahead and spend as much as you can for as little VRAM as possible like an r-slured rube. It's not like VRAM requirements go up every year and tanks your performance when you run out, right?
Maybe you're planning on upgrading to the next r-slur magnet Nvidia product in 4 years anyway so you can get the exact same problem again down the road. In any case, Nvidia thanks you for your generous donation.
