Hello guys

I have a amd fx 8350 not OC and i have a question i have air cooling on it

THERMALTAKE NIC C4
LOW SPEED , NO SOUND
on normal load i get from 25C to 34C (depends on the weather)
on load i get 55C to 65C (depends on the weather)

Sometimes i OC CPU to see in game perfomance from 4.0 to 4.2Ghz.

Right now liquid models that i can buy in my country :

CORSAIR HYDRO H110i GTX

THERMALTAKE WATER 3.0 EXTREME

THERMALTAKE WATER 3.0 ULTIMATE

CORSAIR HYDRO H80i GT

COOLER MASTER SEIDON 120V

COOL MASTER NEPTON 120XL

COOL MASTER NEPTON 240M

CORSAIR HYDRO H110

ZALMAN RESERATOR3 MAX


Shoud i change to liquid cooling ? If yes ,which one of those i shoud buy?
P.S. im not looking for cheap stuff.

Solution
considering the 4.2 that you OC to at times is the turbo speed I do not think water cooling would be needed at all.

I have this same CPU and it does run Pretty hot.. due to the fact that it is a 125w CPU... i drop the Temps massively by getting the Corsair H100i the install was super easy .. came with its own Fans you can get one for $100 on Amazon .. totally worth it. my CPU temp never gets above 45-50 Celsius. even under heavy load. But if you cant get the H100i its not much more for the H110i .
