Okay, so I have my entire PC up and running, all the fans run and everything. Also, the CPU and Graphics are both overclocked (by the retailer). Unfortunately, apparently my heatsink and 6 casefans aren't enough to cool it, as the CPU is about 50-60 degrees Celsius when it's idle, but if I try to run anything even remotely complex (especially a game, which is what this PC was built for) it hits temperatures of 90-100 degrees Celsius. WAY TOO HOT!!! So, I decided since the case is kind of old, I was going to replace the 6 casefans (2 90mm Side-Panel fans, 2 80mm fans on top and front, and a 90mm rear fan), and most importantly get a Water-Cooled CPU Cooler to fix my heat issue.
Here's the issue: as far as I know, CPU Water Coolers function with a water cooler heatsink on the processor, and a radiator attached to where the previous rear fan was. Unfortunately, my rear fan on this case is a 90mm fan. There's no CPU water cooler on the market (that I could find) with a 90mm radiator, the smallest I've found was a 120mm.
Can anyone find me a good 90mm water cooler, or at least tell me what kind of non-water-cooled heatsink I could get that will keep my CPU as cool as possible? I just don't want it running almost 100 degrees Celsius all the time, so right now I'm not gaming on it, which was the purpose of this computer in the first place.
And I would get a new case, but unfortunately my budget won't allow for a good gaming case. I'd much rather just replace the fans and heatsink with a water-cooled heatsink and modern fans. Thanks in advance!
