Ah yea. Did that a month or 2 ago after a full on clean in the case. That cooler comes with some paste which ive heard good things about so i can throw my current tubes out xD
Yea thought so and could easily add fans if needed but doubtful :D I can just remove my current case fan from the top back and have that pointed at the exit instead then @Zeito Thanks :D
Come across these 2.

Both are alot under 150mm so should fit i believe. If...
I have the Corsair Spec 01. No reason just the only 1 i found that would fit no issue haha coolers are the 1 thing i hate looking into for the case size issue
haha yea. Looking at prices and heights etc. ive found this which could be good. Needs a backplate which ive never done before. But i have also given up on making a budget pc look good color wise. Id prefer performance on the budget not looks now haha. ...
Ok so just looked up. Maximum CPU Cooler Height 150mm. So that gives me something to go on. Il look into the Noctuas and Dark rock series and see what i can find.
Yea this stock cooler really isnt bad. All i did was up the CPU Ratio from default 19 to 20. I wont push it more though. The new cooler is mostly for sound. as you see in the test its pretty much 55% and its only just hit 69c then dropped back to 68.. So seems good for now.. But the sounds from...
Yea i cant seem to find the Noise Level for the stock cooler to compare.
Also.. Adjusted my CPU Ratio to 20. Running at 4.0GHz. Fan is stable. Never touched voltages either. Guna stress test it and see what happens :D So far so good for the last 10mins doing normal browsing though.
Just looked into both of those a bit more. Seems my case is too small... yay corsair.. im using the spec-01 which seems to limit me quite a pic. seems i cant use most the decent stuff due to case size :(
Changed the thermal not to long ago when i did a complete clean up. That cooler is 1 of the 1s on the shortlist to go for. Im fine temp wise mostly. its the noise that pisses me off. Hows the sound of that cooler when full load also?
So i run a pretty budgeted PC set up and looking to do a bit of a OC on my FX-4130. Using OC Genie it goes from 3.8GHz to 3.9GHz. Without the OC it likes to jump from 1.4 to 3.8. Using the OC Genie it sits perfectly at a static 3.9GHz but the stock cooler runs at 100%. Temps dont go over 57c but...
