what is best substitution for NZXT x61 cpu cooling system ! ?

[Mex-9]

Hello everybody

i tried to find NZXT Cracking X61, but it's not available and I searched everywhere

Do you suggest for me another CPU cooling system which is also controlled led with the radiator seem as well as NZXT Not to mention the silence also!

iam really confused with H100i GTX or H110 (new version) or 110i (which is not available yet)
If you have another product, please tell me

I hope any one give me a lot of choices in amazon store (prime of course)

Also for the thermal paste

What do you think of that

Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound

Arctic Mx-2 Or Mx-4 ! ?

ARCTIC MX-2 Carbon-Based Thermal Compound, Non-Electricity Conductive, Non-Capacitive, Non-Bleeding - 30g - 24$
Arctic MX-4 High Performance Thermal Compound for All Coolers, 4-Grams (ORACO-MX40001-BL)- 9$


which one is better

Processor: Intel i7-5820k
????????

Okay, get the h100i, it is pretty quiet, and cools very well, I have seen it cool a 4790k overclocked to 5.3 Ghz without breaking 80c which is very good. ad push pull and you could get a couple degrees lower. I use arctic silver 5 compound pretty often, and it is great stuff I would highly recommend getting it if you are on the fence, not like the stock compound on the h100i is bad, but the arctic silver 5 is even better. the other compounds are all rather expensive and do not bring much more performance. And get the 5820K as it is much cheaper than the 5930K but works as well, and you only loose the ability to go four way SLI, which is not really a need.

Well the X61 certainly isnt silent....if you can find one a Swiftech 240x is the best out there.

and if you can afford one... if you can get it though please do, really it is the best.

AS5 is decent, as is MX-4 for cpus, MX-2 works better on gpus. But none are as good as Noctua NT-1, which is usually in the same price bracket.

You'll have to figure out what cooler will fit your case, more than a few cases will accept only upto a 240mm CLC, some will fit upto a 280mm CLC.

If you can't get a kraken x61, I'd suggest a Thermaltake Water 3.0 Extreme, that while slightly louder than the kraken, will also outperform it. I'd forget about the h100i gtx, from reviews it doesn't perform upto it's expense, the h110 GT performing better for cheaper.

I think I will go with the thermalbpaste you chosen noctua nt-1 . and I will have phantom 820 case


Since the space is good I have a lot of choices. I can't get h110i not GT not available.. Also h105 there is no led system like kraken ..

TT ultimate 3.0 not good people complain from that company .. And swiftech h240 x not available. So what do you think of h110 and 100igtx . even if its little expensive than the other and what about buying additional fans from noctua based for good science ..

 

[Robert Cook]

The h110 is a great cooler the h100iGTX is good, but may be a bit over priced. I guess get the H100i GTX.
