overclock i5 750 to 4.0ghz with cryorig H7

[klvinyohanes]

hello guys.. I'm new here, so sorry if i make mistakes and sound noob-ish

the case is:
i'm planning to overclock my i5 750 to around 3.6-4.0ghz for gaming and self satisfaction purpose. I've read some forums but cannot find a clear answer. so do you guys think i can overclock to at least 3.6ghz with a cryorig H7 with load temperature <70c?

OR, should i get a better cooler like noctua NH-D14 or any recommended air cooler (i don't want to mess my system because of a leaking water cooler) to achieve my desired temperature?

my build is:
CPU: i5 750 (currently 3.6ghz with stock cooler, no heavy gaming)
MB: GIGABYTE P55-UD3P
CPU cooler: intel stock cooler
RAM: 2x2gb corsair xms3
GPU: NVIDIA GALAX GTX750TI
PSU: corsair GS600
case: cooler master CM 690 (original version, not II or III)

thanks in advance

Finaly I bought the CRYORIG H7 for my rig because the Noctua NH-U14S were sold out.

Cryorig H7 works like a charm on an overclocked 4.0Ghz i5 750. No regret at all, and very amazed with its performance for the price.

at roughly 24C ambient temp, with 100% fan speed (SMART fan control disabled) the result is:
- Lowest idle temperature 49C
- Highest (100% CPU usage with aida64) temperature 77C

which is very good for my rig, because i only use it for light games like dota 2 or CS GO. playing CS GO with highest settings rise the CPU temp to only maximum 67C.

I highly recommend the CRYORIG H7. It's really great as a budget cooler!
