Im thinking about buying the best aircooling solution i can get right now because i am seriously pissed off about my processor temps. I am idling at 50c and playing BF3 im maxing at 70c which is a little too high for my liking, i am afraid i am damaging my processor.
Atm i have a corsair H70 but i seriously regret buying this piece of *, it cannot cool down the processor even at stock, my brothers Hyper212+ is taking care of his processor ALOT better, like insanely better, on full load BF3 hes at 40-45c! and im at 70c wtf?!?. I have reseated my damn cooler alot of times trying out different ways of applying the thermal paste and nothing is getting better, even tries different push/pull configs, still nothing, hell dropping my overclocks from 4.5GHZ to stock, my temps did NOT change a single bit!, that to me is BS.
So yeah im throwing this garbage out and replacing my cooler tomorrow with a BRUTE force air cooler. So please recommend me the best i can get for air cooling, no water cooling though as i dont really want to deal with water, im not a heavy overclocker or anything, i just want great temps while playing games.
Atm alot of people say the Noctua DH-14 is great, but what i want to know is, is there anything better than it so i can get that instead. I dont really even care about RAM clearance anymore, if there is RAM clearance issues ill also buy myself a couple low profile RAM sticks. Im just really pissed off at this heat, its like 33C where i am right now and that is OUTSIDE, inside my house is like a damn oven with no air blowing or anything, its even hard to breath !$!~$#!~.
Please help and sorry for the Raging, im just about ready to throw this whole piece of *** system out because seeing my brothers system full load @ 45C for processor and video card just seriously made me hate how my system is heating up so much.
