CPU air cooling solution

LS_7 · Nov 26, 2013

I plan on running a 4670k soon and I want to stick with air cooling (just not that interested in liquid) With that said I notice a bunch of people here have Evo 212 in their sigs... I was looking into the Noctua nhu14s as its big but not that massive and its specs are great. The noctua is also supposedly one of the easiest to install due to the killer hardware on them. How easy is it to install a hyper eve and are you able to get solid over clocks with it?

The evo is very easy to install and also allows for OC.
Its also very cheap.
Im up from 3.4 to 4.11 GHz with my EVO.

the 212 is about the best bang for the buck that you can get. Plenty of users can tell you that, i dont have it but based on the reputation its a no brainer.
Of course, there are other choices if you have a bigger budget.

I have the evo 212 on my fx6300 (amd runs hotter) and I went from 3.5 to 4.3 ghz and my load temps havnent exceeded 60°

i know, but i dont consider myself an expert.
you can try to create another thread for that. always a good idea to buy good quality psu's (avoid those cheap ones)

I know enough to get you the right one
