need opinions on good cpu coolers that will work for my setup


Recommended Posts

setup atm: Asus sabertooth 990FX r2 MB, 8GB of 1600mhz corsair vengeance ram ddr3, Phenom II Quad 965 BE stock 3.4 OC'd @ 4ghz w/ some off brand watercooling that came in the Alienware predator case and a sapphire radeon 7790 1 gig card with a crucial 128gb ssd.

All my temps seem to stay high when at idle I no that it has to do with some of the air outside the case but also the case has no ventilation so im buying the AZZA Genesis 9000 Case but still would like to know of a good decent priced watercooling or air cooled. thnks guys

I use this on my 8 core and I'm happy with temps, even when my case temps rise a little when bitcoin mining. They sell a refurbed version 1 for cheap, if you're on a budget there is nothing wrong with using that one.

Isobaric fans FTW :P

I've used Zalman coolers and they work great for me. Overclocked my C2D E6320 from 1.8 to 3.0 and stayed in the 40s C under load a few years back. I'll probably go back to them when I upgrade.

*New vehicle and system coming soon.*

i have that H100i on my I7 3770 and have had no problems what so ever. before you switch out to a new cooler, i recommand that you reapply your thermal paste just to make sure it is/hasnt been applied wrong or is dried up. your going to have to pull the old cooler off anyways to put on a new one so it should be no biggie.

could save you some money and a headache.
