So, I'm looking to push my Processor a little harder and was looking to get some opinions on cooling. I currently have my FX-8350 manually clocked to a little over 4.25 with a Corsair H60 in pull configuration exhausting out the back of the case. I was first thinking of getting 2 Noctua NF-P14s to set up a push pull config on that Rad, but then saw a review on the H80i that is swaying me in that direction. The CoolerMaster Haf x 942 case has plenty of room so that is not a worry. I'm thinking the H80i is the way to go, but if the stock fans on that are garbage and I'm going to have to get the Noctuas anyway,I may get the noctuas now and then get the H80i a little later. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO will match the performance of the H80i while being a lot cheaper.

Thanks for the quick response!

I think I want to stick with a liquid solution. I'm a big fan of the clean look it gives my system.

Any reason you would go with one over the other, besides price difference??

I prefer air cooling,but if you want to get a liquid cooler,then at least get a H100i,because you can do some serious overclocks,whereas with the H80i,you could expect to OC the same as with the CM 212 EVO.
But,if you can't afford to get a H100i,then H80i is a good option. :)
