Ok So H105 or H110

sirx15 · Jul 2, 2014

Is the extra 20 dollars for the Corsair H110 Really worth it? Plus the H105 can be customized for to match my rigs color. Thanks!

If you are considering worth, neither the H110 or H105 is good.
Look at a Phanteks with 140mm fans. They come in colors if that is important to you.
Spend your liquid cooling dollars on a better cpu in the first place.

So what do you suggest a lower end cooler for a higher end CPU? Any Suggestions?

geofelt · Jul 2, 2014

Yes, if you can reasonably.

What cpu do you have now?
What is the main use of this pc?
What cpu and graphics card are you looking at?
What is your cpu and gpu budget?

Ok so I'm getting a 4670k. I'm using this for 2K gaming. I'm gonna get a EVGA SC 6GB 780. I don't really have a defined budget so suggestions and information about the trade offs with each CPU and GPU would be helpful. and Thanks!

If an extra $100 budget does not bother you, buy a i7-4790K. Otherwise a i5-4690K at the same price is a bit better.
It runs at 4.0-4.4 with no OC
I bought one intending to oc the devil out of it.
But, I found out that there is no need at all to oc.

On the graphics card you are good. Yes, the GTX780ti is about as good as you can get, but is not needed for gaming on a single monitor. read this and decide.

No need to chase high vram for your graphics card.

I would use a quiet air cooler like a noctua NH-D15 or a Phanteks PH-TC14PE 140mm.

Does the Phanteks have a 1150 socket compatibility?

geofelt · Jul 2, 2014

sirx15 :

Yes, it supports a variety of different sockets including 1150.
It comes in different colors if you care.

The H110 will beat the H105 and will be quieter, but you should really get the NZXT X61 which will beat teh Phanteks cooler by a degree or two (and it will take up less space than the Phanteks.
