I've been having a problem with my cpu going over the max safe temps recently, even when not under load. I currently have a Asetek 510LC liquid cooling system and my application of the thermal paste was subpar because the 510LC's ring mount is very difficult to get on.
My question is:
Is a fan sufficient to cool a fx-8350? If so, would this one be good?
I think that the thermal paste will be much easier to apply if I get a fan instead of liquid cooling since it is much easier to install.
