raijintek ereboss core edition or cryorig h5 ultimate

which one is better for oc?

I would personally go the Cryorig Ultimate over the Raijintek Ereboss judging from the design/layout of the cooler, better heatsink and the brand itself being more reliable (in my opinion) but for the price you could probably get a decent single radiator liquid cooler which would probably be better unless you specifically want air cooling. Hope this helps

single radiator cooler better than h5?nah.. even the evo is better than corsair h60

Depends on the way you look at it, i would take a liquid over air anyday simply because it disperses the hot air from the CPU to outside of the case where as an air cooler disperses it into the case. I moved from a Coolermaster Hyper 103 (Budget air cooler since my old CPU was a FX 6350 and the stock cooler was shocking) and moving to a single radiator liquid cooler made the inside of the case significantly cooler but if you have a pretty chill GPU and excellent airflow in the case then of course this would become irrelevant, but as i said situations. But i had a very hot CPU and have a very hot GPU so i made my choice based on that haha. As they say tho "Each to their own". But back to the topic at hand, what is the price difference between the Cryorig H5 and Raijintek?

you have a point there.its about the same price but the raijintek core edition doesn t come with a fan bcs it work as passive cooler to so i have to spend extra on a fan but i was wondering if i can put the fan from the evo instead

Yeah buying a fan to go with it wouldn't be expensive or difficult but this would be another simple reason to get the Cryorig H5 just to save yourself some change and save some time since it's ready to go out of the box no additional fan needed. From my knowledge all modern air coolers allow you to unscrew the fans and screw any on that are the right size (120mm for example) so you should be able to use the EVO's fan if its the same size.

*Edit* Sadly the Rajintek Ereboss has support for a 140mm fan unlike your 212 Evo which has a 120mm so you can't use it because the screws wouldn't align with the fan holes across the heatsink.

i m considering about the seidon 240v too

 

[CRO5513Y]

Looks excellent to me for the price. Just make sure you have the room for it on the case which should be fine since it only needs 2x 120mm slots (most cases have this on the top which is the best place to put it.

i believe i m covered,i have corsair 200r

Yep that would fit on the top 2 fan slots just fine. The Seidon 240V will look really slick and clean in that case i'm jealous haha. (Got a Corsair Carbide SPEC-03 atm)

 

[Vaggos]

i was about to get that but then i saw the one i get with a custom glass side panel i changed my mind xD

 

[CRO5513Y]

I would've got the 200R since the Carbide R series looks so clean and adaptable but it wasn't out in 2014 when i got my case

 

[Vaggos]

no worries there your case is neat

 

[CRO5513Y]

Yeah I've had no complaints but the 200R looks much easier to manage which would have been nice.

Raijintek Ereboss Core does support 120 mm fans.
