I bought this CPU back in April 6, 2021. I am currently running it with 2x 120mm 240CFM fans running at 60W each on a 1000W PSU which runs great & stays cool at 25% speed. I recently upgraded from 64GB DDR4 2400 to 96GB DDR4 3200. I am running the EVGA FTW3 ULTRA GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Ti LHR 8GB video card via Display Port to my 55" UHD TV for 4K gaming, video editing, and my other needs. Also running 3 other 120mm CFM fans 1 on my PSU, and the others to cool my motherboard which is the MSI Z590 PRO WiFi ProSeries. I own a little over 600 games on my main steam account but now days I play mostly things like Fallout 76, Battlefield 2042, Ark, Sons of The Forest, Path of Exile, Far Cry 5, Far Cry New Dawn, Far Cry 6, etc. I also my my own game mods as well as freeware apps & content. I love this CPU & have had no problems with it. I have never tried using my CPU on a smaller PSU so I can not comment on that.
