I need a cheap simple install cooler for my i7-7700(non-k)

cronik93 · May 12, 2017

The stock cooler isn't cutting it and it's constantly revving. I ran Prime95 and one core reached 94c in less then 2 minutes. The TJmax is 100c.

Max height is 160mm for my case.

I was looking at this cooler: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835856005

That cooler would work. I'd suggest the Cryorig H7 though.

The cooler you have linked will keep your CPU cool and quiet, no need for anything more expensive.

There is no wrong answer for the 7700 non-k.
If you are interested in saving money you may wish to check ebay as used 212 evo's can sometime be found for under $20 and may have thermal paste leftover, or you may find one of thd others you mention.

Nah, if you want something 212 Evo level the Cryorig M9i costs $19 and performs slightly better and quieter.
