Hi i'm asking this because i have a small room that literally don't have that much ventilation and my AC is broken. I just want to ask which cpu cooler produce more heat?

My current CPU cooler is IDCooling SE214C
http://www.idcooling.com/Product/detail/id/92/name/SE-214C-W

And i wanted to buy IDCooling Icekimo 120G Green Ring AIO Hybrid
http://www.idcooling.com/Product/detail/id/75/name/ICEKIMO%20120G

I just want to know if liquid coolers will produce less heat than cpu fan. My current one is good but the heat it releases is making my room more like a sauna. Thank you for your ideas!

Thee CPU cooler does not "produce heat".

It transfers the heat that is produced by the CPU, out into the room air.
A better, more efficient, air cooler will transfer more heat from the CPU out into the room air.

Those two coolers consume the same amount of power (3 watts), and therefore produce the same amount of heat (3 watts). They probably perform differently with regards to keeping the CPU cool, though.

The cooler generally doesn't produce nearly as much heat as the CPU that it's cooling. Better coolers will not change how much heat the CPU generates.

So most likely even though i change my cpu coolers, the heat that my PC produce won't be reduced?

> For the performance my current one is better in making the cpu stable than the liquid cooler based on the reviews and comparison

What you are asking doesn't make a whole lot of sense. The computer is always going to put out as much heat as it puts out regardless of the cooler, a good cooler will help get the heat from your computer dissipated into the air faster, but a good cooler will not make your pc produce less heat.

The amount of heat a pump or a fan on a cooler would produce is negligible and certainly not something you would notice.

I'm not terribly familiar with that cooler.

All I can say is that the cooler doesn't "generate" heat in any significant amount. All it does is move heat that the CPU makes from the CPU to the room.

Changing coolers does not change how much heat the CPU makes. The CPU makes a lot more heat than the CPU cooler, and is probably responsible for heating up the room.

No.
The difference, if any, would be totally unnoticeable.

Fix the actual problem..."my AC is broken"
Or open a window.
