How to cool a i9-14900k? (alien.top)

Hey guys,

I recently got a 14900K set up going and have been trying to cool this beast down for the past week or so. I have a Noctua nh d15 on a Thermalright bracket, and about 7 case fans in fairly large case. The air flow is good, I can probably make a bit of improvements to it but I think this is pretty much what it's going to top out at.

How are people reaching 6ghz on this thing? I can't even turbo it for 20-25 seconds without thermals going all over the place and overheating. I'm curious as to how people are managing to cool a CPU that goes above 1.4 V and maintaining stability.

I'm curious what configurations you guys are using if any have managed to tame this beast of a CPU. Any better luck with an AIO set up? Anyone have stable undervolting configs?

Try to get a good snapshot of its Power draw during boost and then incrementally lower the power limit, until you’re able to cool it.
