Good Day! heres my processor i5 4670 Non-K NO OC

naay nag offer nako, Corsair H80i 4k iya baligya, LINK: Hydro Series
2ndHand RELIC ang tag-iya, complete pa daw tanan like brandnew.

Or unsa ma refer ninyo nga nice cooler or maka save ko gamay? MAX budget na nako ang 4k, pero kung naa mga 3k plus. para naa allowance ako kwarta.

SALAMAT !!

^ unsa ma'y current CPU cooling system nimo ron bro? kun willing ka mo spend anang 4K nimo for the looks, then spank that one... hehehe...

practicality wise, kun dili ka mag OC, ok ra gyud kaayo nang stock HSF nimo... kun pa gwapohay'g porma ang gi apas, aw, depende na's budget & atoang ganahan na cooler... either air or liquid cooling system...

[Crisel Seven]

^ salamat kaayo. ako gamit diay karun is stock HSF w/c is 4 locks kay mga bali, so ang cooler karun gamay tandog - hagbong haha, akong temp idle 35-45c , load temp 50-80c :3

[lloyd_joy]

^ ahahahahaha... mao gyud ni'g naka parat sa stock intel HSF and similar designs... kun hot kaayo ta na ipang duot dayon ang locks, mo split sila... hehehehe... kay swak man na's budget nimo ang H80i... or, CM Hyper 212 Evo or, para maka save gamay, CM Gabriel or, daghan pa choices @ your 4K alloted budget...

kana na lang gyud na cooler ang imohang ganahan ang palita para kaisa ra ka upgrade nya... para dili ka mag sige'g ilis2x... mo dako lang ang gasto... pero, kun naa budget, we'll why not... dba? hehehe...

go go go!


ops, tym sa, unsa gani diay ang chassis nimo?

Basically, if you're not OC-ing your CPU, stock heatsink will do, but if you're not satisfied or di ka ganahan sa looks, pwede ka mo lingi og Aftermarket cooler, ranging price would be 1-2k PHP if ganahan ka og BULLDOG nga HEATSINK... .like the CM Hyper 212 and Gabriel Deepcol Gamerstorm...

If you want an affordable closed loop watercooling, you might wanna take a look with Thermaltake Water 2.0 Performer for only 2.5k+ PHP, nkapalit ko ani last time sa Gaisano Interpace. .as well as CoolerMaster Seidon 120V for 2.2k+ PHP..

salamat boss @lloyd_joy og @wylliexhan akong casing diay kay armageddon nanotron t1x , supported DAW sya upto 240mm rad, naa koy nakita Php 2999 , its deepcool maelstrom 240 , ok ra kaha na nga LCS ?

kanang Thermaltake water 2.0, ayos kaayo lage na itsura, baga og rad, kung bati ang performance sa maelstrom 240 sa inyo paglantaw, kana nalang cguro kay barato ra pud. aron maka save ko hehe.

interested ko sa inyo opinion about anang maelstrom 240 :P

[wylliexhan]

@Crisel Seven okay rman na siya ang Maelstrom 240 since you can mount that on your case (240mm rad) , it is an affordable closed loop already for a 3K price since 240mm na sya. .you might wanna check the reviews here:

Dako imo case.. I prefer you buy a php 1,500 cpu cooler and invest on some fans para sa case.. since you're not OCing, it's useless to concentrate on Processor cooling.. Best to have moderate CPU cooling and use the budget to improve overall Case cooling which will cool most parts of the system unit including GPU RAM Motherboard.. .

[Crisel Seven]

Hello, boss @wylliexhan salamat sa mga links ra reviews , ako pag basahon ila mga opinion about ato nga close loop og boss @LadYKilleR8520 M-Atx ni sya nga case boss, upto 5x 120mm fans pwede ma butang, sa karon naay 2 ka fans, front og back. malooy ko maglantaw sa board kung dagko nga cooler kay murag mabug-atan, ma force ra kaayo ang board, cguro butngan nako ni og mga fans kung naay sobra

I used to pack coolers as heavy as the Noctua NH-D14 with 3 Noctua Fans into my rig.. weight is clearly a non-issue



But if you are really set up into using a closed loop cooler. I guess my suggestion would be to get the cheapest one you can find.. I used to be very keen on cooling.. I used to be addicted to overclocking myself but have been laying low for a while since I've been quite busy at work lately.

Closed loop coolers are great.. They work best for processors that run mid to very high on load.. but if you're pc is usually running on the low to high load then an air cooler would be better.

Closed loop coolers don't really perform well on the lower temperatures though.. they work best when your processor is almost at it's limit. Aircoolers however almost always work regardless of load, just don't overclock the shit out of your cpu with an aircooler

my recomendation:

Best: Noctua NH-D15 / Coolermaster TPC 812 /
Mid: Corsair H80i, Corsair H90
Low: CM Hyper212 / Deepcool Ice Blade Pro V2 / Enermax ETS T40 - TB
