So I tried putting in today, didn't fit. Would have been able to close it but the fan would have been pressing firmly on the glass panel. Talked to a few people and they said it was fine if I took off the heat-spreader for my RAM so I did and all is well now. The fans are ugly as hell but the...

Hey guys, so I just recently ordered a NH-D15 cooler. I have a H440 case. So my ram is a bit tall and I ordered this cooler after everyone told me that there were cutouts that would allow it to fit. After looking at a few more pictures, I ralized the fan is going to have to be moved up a bit to...

So I just realized something that may be impacting my whole PC as a whole in terms of both temperature and quietness. So my PSU has been bothering me for a while now as it's been making a lot of noise. I never really noticed it since I always had my headset on. Apparently I had my PSU fan facing...

Yeah for sure, just wanted to make sure that this much of a difference was expected considering that overclocking on idle is as if I was gaming with 100% CPU usage without OCing. Would an AIO like an H110i V2 make a significant difference in sound if I added two Nf-nf12s?

Hey there guys, I've only tried overclocking a few times before with my 212 evo and it's original fan and it was always pretty loud. I assumed that was because it was the default fan. I recently bought a Noctua NF-f12 fan which is extremely quiet during normal use. So I tried overclocking again...

A friend of mine has an extra Corsair 120mm SP quiet version fan or something so he's letting me borrow it to see if it makes a good enough difference. My main issue is just sound, not just cooling abilities. So I'll see how that fan works the 212 evo, if it's not good enough I'll get the...

For some reason the model it gave me led me to a different looking RAM completely, but I believe I managed to find my RAM. Seems like it's 1.827" from bottom to top. So 46.4 mm:/ And I'm not even planning on overclocking THAt much, the max I brought my 3570k to was 4.1 or 4.2ghz and my 212 evo...

So apparently the DH14 has ram cutouts so my ram should fit. So would this be my best bet for a very quiet cpu cooler while being good for overclocking?

Hey there guys, I currently have an i5-3570k CPU with a 212 Evo cooler. My 212 is just far too loud right. It's always been somewhat loud but bearable, now its just horrible. The 212 evo makes a fair bit of noise even without overclocking, and once I overclock even a tiny bit and launch any...

I figured of course some games are more CPU intensive than others but it seems like EVERY game is always around 80% + And Bicycle, my fan was directing air into the middle of the case, away from the back :P I have two sticks of ram that were a bit too high, so the fan didn't fit properly, so...

So I just noticed that my 212 evo fan was on the wrong side...It wasn't on the ram side -_- My temperatures while in Overwatch were between 64 and 72. So is 80% CPU usage for most games expected? Or is this somewhat high?

Alright great. And I've been playing Overwatch for roughly 45 minutes now and the max temps were between 69-78. So I guess that's good :) I also have another question, my CPU usage for Overwatch is always around 80% while my friend has a 4670k and is at 60%. That seems like a pretty big...
