I just built an i5/650 system in a Lian Li PC-Q08R. On the stock cooler, Coretemp is reporting up to 62 while playing games, which isn't exactly scary, but is a lot warmer than it should be given the excellent airflow in that little case.
The stock Intel cooler is all-aluminum, and pretty light. I want to replace it. The charts on Frostytech are all LGA775. I've been poring over them, seeing which ones might be compatible with LGA1156, but I thought I'd ask here. I'm not planning a mad overclock on this machine; I just want to bring the temps down. I've already spent a little more on this system than I expected, so I'd like to keep the price down. The mobo is an ECS H55H-I (the one Tom's got), and the cooler needs to be low-profile. I would appreciate any recommendations you may have. Thanks.
