Actually Evo is better than the + because of the slight change of the heatsink pipes.Originally Posted by GhostSniper08 
hey pikey look into the hyper 212 + . Ive read in certain articles, (i forget the link) that say the 212+ is slightly better than the evo, and also cheaper. i found my for 20 bucks off of compusa.com .. I got my 960T OC to 3.9, idles at 34-35, under load goes to about 44-45 . When i had it at 4.0 both ranges went up by about 3 degrees C.
Also, there are some threads here on OCN that talk about which is better: push, pull, or push/pull. Apperantly in most of their tests, pull is better than push and push/pull. ill find the link and and post it later. But i did try all three out myself, and pull is the best one so far at least with the fan i use on it. It wasnt a huge difference between the three, maybe about like a 2-3 degree difference, but pull was the best one.

I highly doubt he'll be able to hit anything more than 4.3GHz, 1.55v is begging for degrading as it is and he'll just hit a wall where the chip can't do more without ridiculous amounts of voltage.Originally Posted by GunSkillet
A friend of mine installed an h100 on his 960T. At first the h100 didnt power on and just made some weird noise, we though that the fans just didnt need to be on because it wasnt hot enough. Then I opened up Core Temp and realized it was running at 95C, but somehow didnt crash...I unpluged it immediately though. I dont think there was any permanent damage to it. We got the h100 to work a little later on. Hes running with 4 cores at 4.2 Ghz with 1.55 voltage (probably from what Im seeing here can go lower, Im gonna talk to him about it later on), but he tested it for 4 hours with prime 95 and the max temp was only 33C. I think he might actually be able to hit 5Ghz... Has anyone here with an h100 tried it? And as long as it gets good temperatures is it okay to keep it on 5Ghz all the time?
Edit:Forgot to mention we were able to unlock it to 6 cores, but we couldn't see the temperatures, and he doesnt really need 6 cores, so we just kept it at 4.

Been working on solid, efficient oc's
