Hello TH.

Right now I am 3 components away from building my Kaveri PC. But the problem is, it's really hot in my place and I think that leaving the AMD chip with stock cooler will be a problem.

I am looking forward to a Seidon 120M with 2 Corsair SP Fans, but I'm not pretty sure about its performance. I could barely stretch the budget to buy a Seidon 120XL or Corsair H80i but again, I am worrying about the performance of it.

If anyone has a better suggestion or recmmendation, I will gladly accept it.

Thanks in advance!

If you are only doing that, it will cool your cpu better than the stock cooler easily. I dont know if you will hit that 40-50 degrees load but it is still better than the stock cooler.

The cpu used was a A10-6800k and load was Prime95. You can expect load temps in league of legends to be lower since Prime95 is a very stressing test.

The 212 EVO will perform almost identical to any AIO cooler up to the H80i, I wouldnt recommend a single 120mm AIO cooler.
If you want to liquid cool look into the swiftech H220x.
I would recommend something like the NH-d14 rather than AIO.

Personally I wouldnt pass the 212 EVO on an APU.

Oh! I found a Noctua L9a, but I don't know anything about it! It's so cheap, like scary cheap. Does it performs good? Like 40-50 degrees at load? I'm curious, really curious.

Its better than the stock cooler, but worse than the above mentioned cooler (due to its small heatsink size)

As long as it cools my CPU around 40-50 degress, I think I might accept that, but if it can go lower, its better. Do you have any idea about the noctua's l9a performance?

I will only do some school works and a kaveri-light gaming ( LoL High/Ultra @768p ), hah credits to Jay for that one.
