hi
I am torn between the following cpu coolers to overclock my new rig ( 6600k + asus z170a) a little.
cooler master hyper tx 3 or cooler master gemin II m4.
The price of both is exactely the same here in my place.
tx3 looks bigger while it has only 3 pipes vs 4 pipes of m4
please help
thanks

Why these over the 212 evo? The 212 evo has better performance than the tx3 and I would imagine (just due to the way they're shaped) that the tx3 and the 212 evo are better than the low profile cooler you've selected. You can't mod it to have dual fans on the geminII and you also get a far small footprint to distribute heat around with the same fan moving air. AKA: less cooling. IMO you'd be better off grabbing a 212 evo and modding it with some better 120mm fans.
