Air Cooler for 2500k in a TJo8-E & full ram

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
This is for my sig rig. Looking at switching to something better than my H50 for my rig. Was thinking custom loop for a long time, but no putting that on hold. So, I'd like ideas for coolers. It is in a mATX case with maximum height of 165mm. I also have a full 4 sticks of ddr3 with a height of 53mm. Thinking with these two requirements and hoping to get something that gives me at least the same cooling (or even better)

It sounds like a D14 and Silver Arrow won't work with the ram. Some others are too tall for the case.
My two top runners are:
Promlitech Genesis http://www.silentpcreview.com/prolimatech-genesis
Tuniq Tower 120 Ext http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=2480

I like the cooling of the Genesis. So I'm leaning a bit more that way.

Other thoughts? Things I might have missed?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I do have a 180mm radiator (phobya) already purchased. Might just sell it I find a good enough air cooler.

at the bottom of the first post, there is a list of coolers that fit in this case. plus, you can ask all the questions right there in that thread.

A Prolimatech Armageddont should work! The HR-02 Macho would be a bit cheaper though.

Any particular reason why that one over, say the Genesis? I do see that it's a bit cheaper which is nice. Thanks for the idea.

Look good - basically an updated TRUE. Though for the money, I think I'd do the Genesis or as you said the cheaper HR-02 Macho.

Know the thread well. Thanks for the refer. Unfortunately some of those coolers (such as the D-14) fail in my OP for the RAM slots being filled. Some go to only two pieces of ram in this case, but as this is mostly a PS box that's less of an option. . I was hoping that someone has had experience with something with tall ram.

HR02 was the cooler silverstone used to debut the TJ08-E back in computex 2011

it starts about 9:05 into the vid and you'll see the HR02 in the TJ08-E

the macho version is simply a cheaper version that comes with the fan. you don't really have to use the fan that came with the macho. you can use a 120mm fan instead to make room for your ram sticks.

so you can say that the TJ08-E was engineered with the dimensions of the HR02 in mind tongue.gif

I'm pretty sure that the new HE-01 Heligon cooler fits the case, too!
