Upgrade fan/heatsink for ASUS H110M-A/M.2 Kaby Lake i7-7700cpu

[Peter_249]

I have an ASUS H110M-A/M.2 motherboard with the Intel kaby lake i7-7700 cpu and standard heatsink/fan that came with the cpu in the box. I want to fit a better heatsink/fan.

LGA1151

What products would be suitable? I am only looking to lower the cpu temperature by approx 5-10 degrees Celsius. It currently gets up to around 85 degrees. I know that 100 degrees is supposed to be the maximum, but would like it to run a bit cooler.

No reason to spend a bunch so I'd get the Cryorig M9i.

Good upgrade from stock and easy on the wallet.

Thanks bignastyid

Got the M9i as you suggested. $49 in New Zealand. Easy to install. Works well. Has dropped my cpu temp by approx 14 degrees. Quieter than the stock Intel unit.
