Hi All. i have i7 960, and i want to OC it. I can buy one of this coolers. First is: Cooler master Seidon 240v 240mm ( Water Cooler ) , Second one: Hyper evo 212 ( Air cooler )
Which one better for oc i7 960? Thanks..
Get the Cryorig M9i, costs $19 on Newegg, and performs slightly better than the 212 Evo while being shorter.
Water cooling is a terrible choice, save up till you can get a CPU upgrade, a cooler is only a temporary improvement.

i can get Arctic freezer pro 7 rev 2 for 38$, and Zalman cnps 12x for 82$. hyper evo 212 for 45$ . and this water cooler for 95$. I dont have another choices. Which one would u recommend for my processor? i can buy one of them without money problem. i just want a good cooler.
Don't get any, if those are the prices where you are, just save and put it towards a new CPU, spending too much on a cooler is silly.
But i can't run my processor full load. When it's full load, temp reaches 90c.. It's intel stock cooler. I must buy one of them :/ Yes in my country everything is expensive.
I live in Azerbaijan. We have Devaluation here. I must use this processor minimum for 1 years for gaming. For that i need cooler, and maybe i can use this cooler in the future for new CPU. 99% i will buy one of them, but i dont have good information about coolers. I want to know, is Hyper evo 212 or Arctic freezer enough to cool this CPU? or i need to buy water cooler? Or big Air cooler : zalman cnps 12x?
Yeah, it's too expensive, water cooling is a luxury you should only ever consider in the high high end, even on $2000 setups I choose a beefy air cooler since the value is much better.
