throw the v8 out, it sucks

h50 and mega are nearly the same,

if u can get some high power fans, go for the h50.

EDIT: the arrows looks like the noctua d14. the case can fit all of them. just got for the one u think looks the best for you.

The H50 is good for clocks up to about 4.0Ghz maybe a bit higher depending on fan setup.

Never heard of the Cogage arrow, so thats out.

CMV8 is a good H/S, but not up to stratch

The Megahalems is a HUGE H/S but its also very very good.

Personally I like the H50 purely because its a smaller H/S and it looks damn sexy

yeha i think ill get the h50, thanks guys.

Btw whats the best airflow config for this system now that im getting the h50

 

[newpc]

oh yea, if u mod ur h50, (i did this 2 days ago). add you own clear tubing, ur guaranteed temps drops. i got 8 degrees from full load

use push/pull with high powered fans and let it get air from outside (back of case)

Yeah but, the reason im going h20 is cause i have a MUCH less chance to leak, if i mod it............ the risk goes up....

It sucks? are you high?
Sucks for it's price but it's not a bad cooler.

 

[shadowmilo]

Btw, can you explain how i should setup my h50 properly? Caus ei know some people dont do it right and their temps are still WAY too high. So yeah...

 

[compuman145]

Just make sure you mount the H/S properly by following the instructions and have the fans going one way (have them both sucking air in from outside of your case going into your case)

The Thermal paste that comes with the H50 is pretty sweet stuff as well, so unless you plan on lapping your h/s then you'll be fine.

 

[shadowmilo]

i wont be able to do push pull staright up cause ill only have the 1 fan it comes with to start. my money for this pc has reached its VERY TOP limit..... :/

 

[compuman145]

It'll be fine for you to over clock on stock fans up to about 3.6 - 3.8

anything more and you need more fanage

 

[shadowmilo]

oh ill get the h20, just i wont have the 2nd fan to do the pulling part, thats all.

And im going to SCREAM in the 'add a comment before shippment' i want the D0 batch, if i get the c0....... they will regret giving it too me.

 

[shadowmilo]

Actually will this do?:

if so, then ill get that also....

 

[compuman145]

Just send it back, to be honest if you got a C0 I would be shocked.

and its the SLBEJ as well, look out for that and then you know you're getting a D0

EDIT
Get 2 of these You have to get 2 because if you mix and match fans in this setup it will

A. Reduce cooling
B. Reduce efficiency
C. Make it louder

 

[shadowmilo]

will this fan work as the puller on the inside?: http://www.stonebridgecomputing.com....a-p-11620.html

and yeah, ill def look at the batch name b4 i open it, haha

 

[shadowmilo]

already went $50 over budget for the h50, and now 30 more for the fans......
But i guess ill have too, ill convince dad ill pay him back the extra i spent on it later...

thanks for all the help really appreciated

One more thing though, will there be enough connection sockets on the MB for the fans, the ram fan etc etc?

 

[compuman145]

Yeah easy.

Besides these fans plug into your PSU

 

[shadowmilo]

Thanks SO much!!!!!!
