Im having a little thinkers block about a possible CPU Cooling replacement. Right now i have a Arctic Freezer 7 Rev. 2.0 installed, and at peakload, its at 100-120 degrees Celsius.....and at idle it stays at 45-60 Celsius. Im looking at some of the possible candidates for liquid/water cooling and heres what i found:

Corsair Hydro Series H60:

CoolerMaster Seidon 120XL:

CoolerMaster Seidon 120V:

CoolerMaster Seidon 240M:

Which of those 4 would be a viable liquid cooling solution for my processor (AMD Athlon X4 760 BE)? If this can be replied within a reasonable time limit, id appreciate it ^-^!

EDIT: I almost forgot to add the current system specs i have in my rig right now:

AMD Athlon X4 760K Black Edition
XFX Core Edition 550W PSU
ASRock FM2A75M-DGS R2.0 Mobo
MSI Radeon HD 7850 Twin Frozr OC 2GB
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (4GBx2) @ 1600 Mhz
NZXT Source 210 White
Samsung 840 Series SSD 120GB
Seagate Barracuda 1TB SATA

You have either a reporting issue or a thermal paste issue, those temps are insane, the recommended maximum temp for the 740/750/760 is ~74C, it should be shutting itself off at those temps. What program are you using to monitor them?

Now that appears to be reporting too low unless it's winter there and you are using it outside lol. That is a relatively new chip, were you using the latest version of HWMonitor?? All I know is that the temps reported by either of those programs can't be correct, your CPU couldn't be below ambient temperature, and if it was running 100-120 than it should be throttling or shutting itself off.

I will check it out when i get home. It does get cold in my apartment, which COULD result in a low temp reading. When it gets hot in my apartment, i tend to open the window to cool myself off and to keep fresh cool air circulating to the computer and stuff. And as far as the cpu temp readings go..... i felt how hot the fins were and they werent that hot in the first place.... So i do not know what is goin on BUT ill order a liquid CPU and some thermal paste to do some further testing.


EDIT: It still shows up around the 50-70s..... Im gonna get a simple but decent liquid cooling system and stuff to see if thats the deal. I DO see only the inner part of the processor is covered by the heatsink plate.

EDIT 2: Good news! I am using OCCT 4.4.0 and the temp reading on it is not low nor high. its at 38.5 degrees C.
