Here's the situation, I want to OC my Phenom II x4 965 moderately and wanted to play with an aftermarket CPU cooler. Currently I have the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo and the Corsair H75 liquid cooler and have to decide which one I want to use and which to return.
I started with the CM Evo but figured out quickly that it will not fit in my ATX Mid case without changing out stock 250mm side panel fan for smaller fans then figure how to mount them. At this point it'll be nearly the same price but if I went with the H75 and I'll be able to keep my factory case fans and won't have to do any case modifications.
Which cooler would you go with if you had both on hand? Which will perform better cooling and consistancy over time?
** And FYI as I may get asked but I got the H75 with a family members discount at a tech shop locally. By the time I bought a couple 120mm fans to replace my large fan to accommodate the oversized air cooler, I'd be at the same price as the H75.
