Questions about this item
Does the combo include everything needed to mount the cooler on the Ultra 7 265K, or must I buy thermal paste separately?
The bundle supplies the motherboard, the Ultra 7 265K processor and a tube of Shin-Etsu X-23-7868-2D thermal grease rated at 6.2 W/m·k conductivity and 0.07 °C·cm²/W resistance, so no extra paste is required.
The board has four DDR5 slots — should I populate two or four for the Ultra 7 265K?
Four DDR5 DIMM slots are present with AEMP II support; installing two modules leaves room for later expansion while four fills every slot for maximum capacity.
The CPU lists a 125 W base power — will the 12+2+1 phase VRM rated at 70 A per phase handle sustained loads without throttling?
The 12+2+1 power stage design delivers 70 A per phase, giving ample headroom for the Ultra 7 265K 125 W rating during extended workloads.
