Advice for i5 750 cooler (please quick answer)

[Misko195]

Please can advice me for solid cooler?
I have i5 750 now on stock speed with stock intel cooler my temps is IDLE 34c average and LOAD prime95 71c to 74c. When i play STALKER Call of Pripyat my temps is about 56c-62c

Advice between Cooler Master Hyper 212+ and Cooler Master TX3 please.

Also im not havy overclocker, don't go above 3.5ghz. And my dimension on the case is 450-430-195mm, im little afraid for 212 plus. Can fitt this cooler in my case?

Thx...

CM 212+ is way better than TX3. if it doesnt fit, u can always leave the side panel open tx3 can do a decent job if u dont overclock.

yes can leave side panel open, but i not prefered this

And yes im not a havy overcolcker, just play games on stock speed. Or little above stock speed.
When i play games my temp is about 62c, with TX3 can i drop temps on 40c, what you means?

Can you remove the motherboard?If you can then 100% get the hyper 212 plus.It will give you better temps.Also you will avoid the push pins which are lots of trouble to install as I told you in my last post.

PS.My pushpins could have been problematic.
PS2.If you get the tx3,I have to tell you that it's fan is quiet.

Ok BeCoolBro, ty for advice.

And tell me, do you apply thermal paste between heatpipes?

Yes, first thing you do with the 212+ is fill all the gaps between heatpipes with paste then remove excess and apply normally. These will help.
