I just finished putting my first real gaming rig together, and found out quite quickly that temps were way too high, so I even bought a huge Cougar Panzer Max ATX-Full tower and equipped it with 4 x 120mm intake fans and 3 x 120mm exhaust fans, and STILL, if I attempt IntelBurn at all it reaches 100 C within 3 minutes and shuts down my system (MB Thermal Protection) even with fresh MX-4 Paste. So if you ever have any doubt that stock coolers are junk, just use me as an example lol.
Now Im planning on buying a decent, yet inexpensive AIO 240mm liquid system to combat the heat of my Phenom II X4 970 Black, and I'm unsure which to buy. Reviews are non-conclusive, and place each AIO in a different spot each and every time, there is no real pattern, but I am planning on using the AIO on my future AMD Zen build, and I am wondering which to buy. I am interested in:
Enermax Liquitec II 240mm
Silverstone TD02 240mm
Artic "Liquid Freezer" 240mm
Any suggestions?
