[SOLVED] Cpu cooler for i5-4460

[Lucifer996]

My Intel stock cooler stopped working. I am.thinking of buying Thermaltake UX100 as it looks cool with all the RGB also it's not costly. But this Cooler can support CPUs upto 65TDP valuer and my cpu has a TDP value of 84. Should I get this cooler or go for higher price tag with other cooler. I don't want to spend more than 30$.

Not enough, you should always go for a cooler with much higher TDP than proclaimed by CPU manufacturer, it's invariably higher under full load.
Besides that, your MB most probably doesn't have ARGB header so lights wouldn't work anyway.

Thanks. Although my mobo doesn't have RGB header, this cooler gets its power from cpu fan port, so I can get RGB lighting as default by manufacturer I can't control it.
I got it I should buy higher tdp cooler. There is a option for DeepCool Gammaxx L120T single fan Liquid Aio which is around 47$ and DeepCool Gammaxx 400 V2 for 22$, Cooler master Hyper 410R RGB

Let me know which one you think suits best for my CPU.

Any of those should be enough, minimum 4 heat pipes and 120mm fan(s). Only one thing those you are looking at need a RGB controller for lights. Single color doesn't.
Personally I think Gamax would do just fine.

Your processor is not overly hot since it does not overclock.
If your case has 160mm headroom for a tower type cooler, I would go that route.
Most any with a 120mm fan will be fine.
I would not consider liquid cooling if air will do the job.
Of your links, the gammax would do the job.

Absolutely the gammaxx, it'll keep an old i5 well below 60c even under a full load stress test

Absolutely no need to spend any more than that

I am not sure whether Gammaxx would fit onto my mobo. Asus b85m-g.

It'll fit that board fine.

Your case model will be the issue if anything, do you know what it is exactly??

Case won't be probelm it have plenty of space,

This is the case I am using, the problem I see is weather it will fit mobo or not because , if look closer nearby cpu area , there 3 capacitor and 3 cubic something more behind those capacitor , I am worried they are going to be the main problem.

It's a slimline tower, it doesn't extend past the rear of the cpu slot.

It will 100% fit, I have no doubt at all.

I bought DeepCool Gammaxx L120T cpu cooler and it fit well and working great for my cpu . Normal temp are 30-35C for idle and upto 30-40% cpu usage. for 100% load the temp are upto 61C . I didn't saw more than 61C yet. This thing is working like a charm.
