low profile cooler for overclocking

Guest · Aug 26, 2014

I'm looking at creating a small mini itx pc with a Pentium g3258, obviously, I want to overclock it, but I need a low profile cooler to fit in the cooler master elite 110 case that I've chosen.

I had a look at the noctua nh-l9i, but apparently its not good fir overclocks. Please could you suggest a better cooler for me at a similar price?

Thanks

You could get a cheap water cooler like the CM Seidon 120V.
EDIT: Here's a list of all compatible coolers if you happen to need it: https://pcpartpicker.com/parts/cpu-cooler/?compatible_with=cooler-master-case-rc110kkn2#sort=a6

Hi eduello, how does that compare to something like the hyper 212 evo, which I would love, but just doesn't fit?

The idle temps seem to be a bit higher on the Seidon, but under load it's a bit better: http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Cases-and-Cooling/Cooler-Master-Seidon-120V-Liquid-CPU-Cooler-Review/Test-Setup-and-Temperat
