Go get yourself a Dark Knight. Really kick ass cooler if you us the right thermal compound like Arctic Silver 5, Innovation Cooling Seven Karat Diamond (AKA: IC7), MX-2, or OCN Freeze. That will take your temps and put them around 50-60 range even when your chip is OC to 3.6+


You live in the USA correct?

Go here:

http://newegg.com

great site and is FAR better than that one you linked.

Yeah. The Xiggy is a great cooler. Compared to my stock cooler, I idle at 28C when I am doing stock . Either way would not hurt.


He is the Noctua on newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835608007


To be honest. I would buy things from newegg since they have a lot bigger selection and have reviews for just about everything. Also they are awesome. My whole build came off that site.

I kinda like the Noctua for some reason. It seems like it has better quality. but if I can get the xiggy I will. but now that I am here I just wanna learn some info on the Noctua. Are they a good brand? Will it fit in my case, and also will it bring my cpu temperature down.


edit: Shipping is a big issue when you buy these things. I gotta shop locally because shipping is just outrageous.

Yes but just by shopping local they might charge more for the product than Newegg so the difference might be in your selection.

That's why you always buy things with "free shipping"

Are you guys kidding me? The Noctua NH-U12P is an extremely good cooler.

The build quality of the Noctua is superior to the Dark Knight too.

Why would you suggest a Dark Knight over it?
