which is gonna keep my cpu less hot? im not overclocking im just gaming Cooler Master Hyper 103 or ARCTIC FREEZER 12? both are the same price where i am

There is very little difference between those two coolers. Both have 3 heat pipes, both have a 92mm fan, both are made from aluminum. Please tell us what cpu you are planning to cool.

I see. Well judging by what i see, those two coolers are nearly identical. I only real noticable difference is how they look, so it comes down to personal preference.

How about the be quiet pure rock slim it's at the same price too is it any better?

 

[Sir_Lagsalot]

I would probably go with the be quiet, solely on the fact that it has a larger fan than the other two.

so the be quiet is better in cooling the cpu than the hyper 103 and freezer 12
