Intel G3258 HSF

[Jonathan Cave]

Is the STOC G3258 hsf the same as the stoc hsf that came with my 4670k?

Very good here's the info.

Intel includes a small CPU cooler or HSF with the Intel Pentium G3258 processor. The part number is E97378-001 and this particular model uses a Delta Fan (DTC-DAA14). This HSF supports processors up to 95W TDP, so it should handle the 53W TDP Intel Pentium G3258 processor without any issue (unless you overclock it and then you’ll want an aftermarket air or water cooler). Here are the specs the included CPU Cooler:

Mfr Part Number: E97378-001

They are not the same. The 4670k gets a better version with a copper slug in the center.

Take a look at thermal solution specification.

Double checked, my i3 4370 comes with pcg 2013c, does not have a copper slug. Has a delta fan.

As i don't use the hsf from my 4670k and have just bought a g3258 will i benefit from using the 4670k hsf?

Double check to see if the 4670k heatsink is different because the solution specs may not mean a thing. I would assume the 4670k to have a copper slug, while the 3258s stock heatsink does not.

i've just took the HS off the fan. The G3258 arrives tomorrow for my HTPC build. I doubt there will be any visual difference but i'll post back if there is. I would imagine if they have used a 'copper slug' it would be better perhaps?

 

[LookItsRain]

Yes, copper has better thermal properties compared to aluminum.

Looks just like mine copper core , here it is in video.

My i3 came with the same thermal solution as a g3258 comes with, but mine does not have a copper slug, pcg 2013 c. Seems that the specification means nothing or the 3258 is a likely exception.

Thanks both at least they both have copper.

This article references the 'PCG 2013D' & 'PCG 2013C' but i may as well be reading quantum calculus lol - it makes no sense to me.

My son's and my spare 3258 , both have the copper SLUG like my 4760k HSF in the box, they look almost identical , sticker is only difference I see.

on a side note Mr Sr-71 blackbird, why does it say 'you have been banned' on your signature ?

My pcg 2013 c does not have any copper, all aluminum heatsink.

Just a GIF my friend made me.

Yeah maybe with it being an anniversary edition they decided to use copper on the g3258 HS. or it's a typo!

Who knows, we have beat this horse to a pulp!

 

[Jonathan Cave]

i havent bought an aftermarket evo 212 etc... have either of you any experience in overclocking this on a stoc cooler?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Overclocks well with a Cryorig H7.

 

[Jonathan Cave]

The Cryorig H7 is £50 here in the UK, when it was priced @ £30 to compete with CM 212 EVO i would have bought it.

I'm going to see if i can get a 4.0Ghz o/c on the stoc HSF - if temps stay lesss than 75 degree's i'll be happy, otherwise i'll invest in a EVO 212 - or a HSF in that price bracket.
