So i broke my Stock cooler/Is this One Good?

[kostas1127]

I broke one of my pins on the intel stock cooler damn those things are a headache.So tomorrow my ordered coolermaster tx3 evo arrives and i heard its 14cm-136mm to be precise.So
2 Question:
Is there any chance this cooler wont fit in my case? My case was from a local shop and its quite bigger than average pc cases.
Second question:Am i going to see any difference ? With the stock cooler i was getting 70 degrees on load with 40 degrees ambient and the noise was a nightmare will the tx3 be much quited and efficient? i just dont want the cpu to overheat.
I5 4690 not K(locked)
8 gb ram
msi b85m g43(with the cooelr fit this mobo?)

Cooler will fit, if you have almost any tower case you are fine, and yeah its WAY quieter and more efficient

The problem is not the cooler not fitting in the mobo, the problem if it fits in the case. Do you checked the size of the case if the Cooler fits in there?

So the width of the case is 18.5 CM is it enough?

Yes that is more than enough room, you are fine

If it's a regular tower case, you'll be fine. That cooler isn't very big. It's taller than the stock cooler, but not enormous.

Last question if the main fan by CM fails is it possible to buy a new fan with same specs and install it as the main fan? Cpu fan?

It's going to be way quieter, but with temps you will probaby get like a 15 C temp drop.
As for the case fitting part, try to measure it from the cpu to the panel with a measure tape. It won't be precise, but you will get the idea.
Yes, It will fit the Motherboard.

Yes, Coolermaster sells the exact fan on the cooler separately if you need a replacement.

I Measured it with a Ruler bad move?

Rules is fine, case is 180mm cooler is 136mm, plenty of room.

As i said any tower case will fit it, thats what its made for.

No, you just needed to know the estimated length.
I just said a tape as an example.

So i measured from Ram module up to the panel and the distance was about 15.3 cm ample distance i can say thank you for the help guys
