Whats the best CPU cooler for the Lian-Li PC-TU100 + Best GPU Around $100

Yee_Man · Nov 15, 2017

I'm building a computer to bring to LAN parties because I just realized that the risk of destroying my full tower is high when moving it around, and I don't know what the best CPU cooler is that fits in the case and doesn't get in the way of the mobo. I also don't want to spend like 50 dollars on a cpu cooler because i'm trying to make this computer a budget build since I won't use it that often. I also need help choosing a gpu that won't get too hot in a small case such as the PC-TU100.

Edit: I've was also wondering if the $40 liquid cooler that coolermaster makes would fit.

Here is the build on PCPartpicker

Thanks,
Yee-Man (If only I could change it...)

Well given the clearance limitation's you should be looking at the 120mm AIO's and have it set up like this:

or this

Apart from that your build as is with the Cryorig low profile cooler will be more than adequate.

To be honest, on a G4560 there's no reason to not use the Intel stock cooler (unless clearance issues are that bad). Yes, it's a bad cooler but it's more than sufficient to cool a G4560. The C7 is also probably one of the best options as far as CPU cooling goes in SFF.

For GPU, SFF builds have a pretty hard problem with dumping all of the hot air into the case. This basically means that your best options are to either install as many fans in your case as possible, or to get a blower style card (1050Ti Founder's edition, or any other AIB blower style card of your choice). Ultimately the blower style cards run a little hotter and louder, but they don't dump all of the air into the case and exhaust it out the back. This is usually the preference when it comes to SFF builds.

Other than those notes, I don't see an incredibly obvious problem with your build.

Thanks, do you think the cable management would be bad with a fully modular power supply? I don't want the pc to look like this

Also, do you think my GTX 960 will fit?

Cryorig C7 like you already have or the Noctua NH-L9i or NH-L9x65 if height clearance allows. But like Justin said for the G4560 the stock cooler is perfectly fine.
