So my cpu gets extremely warm when i play demanding games like metro 2033, and i then get frame drops when i reach about 60 degrees on the cpu. (i have made a post before regarding this and everybody sais it is most lickely to be the cpu that gets to warm).
So my question is should i buy the Noctua nf-f12 for the cpu heatsink (which is a hyper 212 evo, and my cpu is a fx-8320), or should i buy an nf-s12 for the heatsink...? as i've heard that the f12 is mostly designed for use in radiators.
and my other question is should i buy two nf-s12 or two p12 for use in my case? one exhaust (top) and one intake (front). My case is a bitfenix shinobi, which has two fans preinstalled (one exhaust and one intake).
I am unsure of what models i want to buy in the noctua collection, (i dont really want advice on getting other fan models by other companies.)
and should i spend a little extra on getting one fan in the side by the gpu, althought the temperature of the gpu was relatively cool, 50 degrees max on full load GPU.
Many thanks!
