Which cpu cooler is better?

121ryanmah · Sep 17, 2012

Hey guys just wondering for my build which cooling system is better, the corshair H100 or the Noctua NH-D14?

Well, what is your build?

I'd say NH-D14 because of it's price/performance/noise ratio compared to the H100.

However...

I'd consider a custom watercooling solution because it is in the same price range.

If you want to OC alot, you may want to choose H100 because its generally cooler than most other Fan/Water cooling systems.

okay what if i replace the corshair fans on the h100 with two noctua nf p12 fans?. And yeah I plan on OC the crap out of my 3770k
