Corsair H55 vs H60

[Alvin1]

Ive been asking alot of questions about computer parts lately. Im buying a budget gaming PC. The last thing im curious about is the diffrence between the Corsair H55 cooler and H60. The H55 fits perfectly into my budget but i havent heard anything about it. Is it good? or atlest useful.

Both are bad and overpriced for the performance you get.

Get a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO, its cheaper and will perform [strike]much better[/strike]. It does for under 30$.

Edit : Perform similarly under a mild OC.

Mixed reviews (feedback) should be ok. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181029&Tpk=Corsair%20H55&IsVirtualParent=1

I am a noob when i comes to PC's so i dont know how to install one, the watercoolers come pre installed.

Im buying a whole new PC from this website and you can choose from diffrent pc's, but you can change a little bit on them. they come fully buildt. http://www.komplett.no/k/config.aspx?ConfigSystemId=10752 this is how it looks.

OK well installing a fan like that is pretty simple.

Nope you won't have to. You can remove the back cover of the chassis and there SHOULD be a hole to access the back of the CPU socket from.

As you can see there it has a huge hole specifically to make installing coolers easier. That is the nice thing with such nice chassis.

Im definitely going to break something x_x Are you sure the water coolers are that bad? they must be better that stock coolers atleast.....

except, it doesnt remove the cpu-heat from the case, like WC allows (if fan mounted so it blows out).
main reason my whole system is 20-30*C cooler (meaning the hardware will last longer), and the gpu never reaches +70C on air...

sure its not the best cost vs "performance" ratio (compared to air cooling), but there are enough
computers where this is better than using air for cooling (cpu).
