Need help for my CPU Cooling

[DutchPC]

Hey,

I wanted to know If there are any better cpu cooler that will fit in my case. My case is a http://www.sharkoon.com/?q=en/node/1902 And as you can see it says: Max. height CPU cooler 15.5 cm So The NH-D14 Is 16 cm And so will not fit. Are there any others that will fit My Cpu is a Intel I5 4670K And I'm going to overclock it

Thanks allot,

If you're overclocking you'll NEED watercooling, the corsair Hydro H50 is a great sealed, all-in-one, compact water cooler.

You may have to see if your case will handle a radiator as they are slightly wider than ordinary fans. If the case is no then I would strongly consider changing your case before you overclock.

The Hyper 212 EVO too is 159 mm high. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099

This leaves a difference of 4 mms from the case specs. - One way to confirm compatibility is to actually measure the distance from the CPU to the cover of the case. Sometimes manufacturers allow for a safety margin in their specs. to prevent customer complaints.

Is the H80I Not better ?

By the door there probably is a extra 5 mm But Will it be tight I think so

The scythe mugen 2 would PROBABLY work... it's 157mm in height.

Also for low-profile, good cooling, you could get something like a Corsair H60 or H70, which isn't much more expensive than the air coolers

If you watch sales, you can fine the Cooler Master Seidon 120XL for 40 dollars after MiR.

That depends on how much you plan on overvolting. I have my i7-2700k OC'd from 3.5 to 4.5 ghz with nothing more than a Cooler Master aftermarket air cooler.

 

[gustafangus]

Yeah but that's because the i7 2600k and 2700k are probably the best quad-core i7's out there when it comes to overclocking. At 4.5ghz, the 2600k uses 15% less power than the 4770 at 4.5.
But he doesn't need liquid cooling for overclocking, if something like the Noctua coolers perform even better at the same price point.

I agree,either this one or for an air cooler the thermalright macho 120.That one is 150mm high.

Fair point sir! H80i is a very good choise and is much more compact than the H50
