Closed loop cooler for 4670k

[kyufaker]

Hello,

I am setting up my mini itx build this week and I am going for:

Asus impact VI
4670k
gskill sniper 2400 mhz 2x4gb
SS strider 500W bronze
CM elite 130 case

Looking for a competent closed loop cooler for this set up keeping in mind that most likely a push pull set up will not fit ( i also dont want my rig to be a mini hoover)

Please advise!

Thanks in advance,
John

The corsair H50 is small but powerful, and pretty quiet too. The H90 has a $30 rebate and would be much better, but it is a 140mm fan, which most mini cases don't have.

ahh yes the cooler it can fit is only 120mm + i live in the UK

Thanks!

I do know you can get Corsair in the UK, go for the H50 or H60, great, simple, small coolers.

does anyone else have any further thoughts on this? more choice would be appreciated!

The Cooler Master Seidon 120V is pretty small also, just a 120mm fan, pump, and radiator, which is really as small as you'll get. The Zalman LQ-310 is pretty small also. You're pretty limited on choices because mini itx is not built for performance, while liquid cooling is.

ha went for a corsair h80... had a deal for 40£ couldnt pass it... worst case scenario I will remove one of the fans if it doesnt fit (but fits with 2 fans on seidon, so hopefully will fit this one in it's entirety).

Thanks & pls close the thread

Great choice. Just pick me as a solution and it's not closed, but it will help people find it in the future, and give me CPUs master haha.
