CM Hyper TX3 Evo cooler vs Deepcool ICEEDGE 400 XT

Starsandspace · Dec 13, 2013

So I have been thinking about getting a heatsink for my processor so that it can run a little more a cooler and I can overclock it . These are the 2 options that I have -

Which one do you think I should pick up ?

And will it take up ram slots ?

Specs -
FX-6300
MSI 760 2gb TF OC
Asus m5a78/usb 3
corsair xms3 4gb ram
CM 431 Elite plus

I would get the TX3 just because it is cheaper, not much difference in performance. http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=2621&page=4

3 heatpipes vs 4 heatpipes..

go with Deepcool ICEEDGE 400 XT, it's better than coolermaster tx3.

Well, your motherboard only have 2 slot for memory, it's have a pretty good distance from your processor socket..
it'll not block your memory slot..

Oopss sorry ... I actually have usb3 model of that motherboard .. it has 4 ram slots

Starsandspace :

oh..
well then, if it has 4 ram slot and you use high profile memory, any tower style cpu cooler will block ram slot..at least one..except thermalright archon..
So that's mean, you can only use slot 2, slot 3, slot 4.
But don't worry, you can still use you memory for dual channel configuration..

but if you use low profile memory, you can use all slot available..

How's your experience with this cooler? I'm facing heating issues with this cooler. I have set it like this: http://i.imgur.com/gZdzSk2.jpg. but my top panel is not open, maybe that's the reason. But I'm unable to fit it facing the RAM slot. What is your setup? Do you know how to make it fit in front of RAM? Also what temps do you get in high load with this cooler?
