[@rps215]

+Crimsonis The fan is NF-A15 though, so it is easy to mistake it for NH-D15, but the NH-D15 doesn't have that jagged edge and is generally more boxy looking. The Silver Arrow Extreme is more jagged like that. If you are interested in dual tower coolers like that, just look around the websites of Noctua, Thermalright, Be Quiet, Deepcool, Phanteks, Cooler Master, and many others. Just like he said, make sure you have enough motherboard clearance for it and also make sure it doesn't hit the side panel of your case as well.

More worried about liquid coolers leaking

[@akikomiwa2720]

don't worry, if you buy a decent cooler from a reputable brand you shouldn't have any leaking issues provided that you don't tamper with the fittings and tubing I recommend something from; Corsair, Cooler-Master, Swiftech etc... (read reviews!!)

[@ZeldagigafanMatthew]

Akiko Miwa I am kind of OCD about how secure the fittings are, so I would ALWAYS recommend using compression fittings or hose clips.

[@PresentKA]

Before buying an AIO liquid cooler search google with " leak" If there are any reports of leakage with that cooler you will find it, You will also know how often it happens :)

[@PresentKA]

It's better than nothing. He can search the same keywords in other hardware websites as well. And iirc some AIOs has no reported leaks (that i could find).

When Tech Quickie was As Fast As Possible and not bloated with advertisements that last longer than the episode itself...

[@lammatt]

actually the stock is not good enough even without overclocking. when you game, the AMD CPU tends to go overheatting with the stock, and usually...(according to my experience, intel seldoms tho') a 4-8heatpipe 12cm fan heatsink is good enough for gaming under mild overclocking. you dont actually need watercooling, unless you room is small, and you dont want the exhaust heating you whole room up.

[@pedrorezende2718]

AMD recommends not exceeding 62º Celsius on their CPUs, but reaching that does not mean they are overheating, far from it in fact. CPUs can work at up to 95ºC without too much trouble, and some (AMD ones) can run considerably hotter than that without failing. Also, exhaust from the PC fans should not heat the room nearly as much as a person being there.

[@lammatt]

Pedro Rezende lol i am pretty sure you never used any AMD CPU then.

[@pedrorezende2718]

matt lam Actually about a half dozen of them. Never had an issue. Overclocked a couple with the stock cooler, still ran at acceptable temperatures and were stable. Maybe I got lucky with them, but in general my experience was that they run A LOT cooler than intel CPUs, and lock up a lot less with trivial tasks such as adobe reader (all other things in the PC being the same). The latest generations do tend to draw more power than a same-price intel though.

[@lammatt]

Pedro Rezende my experience with AMD has been generally bad.... i went apple classic >486 thinkpad > pentium> K6-2 >celeron 300A >celeron 500E> Althon >C2D >i5 >phenom2 i managed to get the celeron 300A to 450 without any issue, but couldnt even meaningful overclock the K6-2,and now the phenom 2 is giving me a lot of headaches... it fried a gigabyte motherboard (the northbridge chip died within a year, and killed a coolermaster 85plus PSU for me too, and i was just barely overclocking from 3.2 to 3.8 (not exactly a CPU problem... but i attribute it to amd anyways, stupid 790x chip.

[@pedrorezende2718]

matt lam Yeah...if you managed to burn through both the motherboard and the PSU there's something quite majorly screwed up there. Likely the stupid voltage regulations. And the airflow. And the PSU. And some major bad luck/recklessness on the overclocking. I also don't understand why you'd go from i5 to phenom 2. I mean yeah, the first gen i5 had the same performance as a phenom 2 x4 but unless it got fried, there's no reason for the change, even a x6 would not be much of an improvement.

[@phithhatesgplus8263]

I got a h60 for my i7 3770k and I'm perfectly happy with the setup, but.. I got the closed loop system because I feared that a large heatsink would put unnecessary stress on the motherboard itself. I have a Sabertooth Z77 'tuff' series motherboard with a 5 year warranty. So my question is: Was my fear justified, does that stress diminish the life of the board? Exclude the warranty.

I bought an i7-4770K. With the stock fan, the temps went up to 90's. Without overlooking and without using synthetic benchmarks (I use x264 for coding videos) So after thinking about it, I decided to get a water cooling solution. Now I have even lower temps, and the noise is even less than with stock. TBH, I wouldn't use a stock fan with a high end CPU. It's not worthy. L8er! P.S. Loved the case. C70 from corsair.

Sorry Linus the Stock CPU coolers that intel provides are totally unacceptable. I have a 4790k that is at the stock clock of 4Ghz and when playing certain games such and watchdogs and BF4 my cpu would get up to 80 degrees Celsius and also the fan was extremely noisy easily the loudest fan in my whole computer even at idle

[@computerwoespastpresentand4863]

Wyatt Baragar YEAH, man! Thanks for chiming that in. The reason as to why I am glad, is because so many tech reviewers/technicians tend to use the minimal conditions/scenarios, as the most *extreme* scenario. I've been told over and over, that 8 gigs of RAM is fine, because there is no video game, or other application that can use enough CPU muscle, to need more than 8 gigs of RAM for "breathing room"/workspace/scratch paper, etc. Well now, my Nvidia Shadowplay takes a DUMP on my face, when I "shadow" game footage and crashed my video game so badly, that I have to physically disconnect my router/modem (while my system STILL bitches and farts for a few more minutes), just so it can return to a functioning system again! And on top of that, sometimes the video capture is too corrupted to open, OR I get this over-pixelated, psychedelic, LSD acid-trip version, which is far too messy to use! I've been reading tech/user complaints since 2001! Yes, two thousand and one! Over *FOURTEEN* freaking *YEARS* ago, that the official package of "Tribes 2" has hardware requirements that are *far below* the minimum of what you need, so that the game plays AT ALL, or *not choppy*! I am so paranoid about not having enough fan muscle to cool my CPU, or not enough RAM, for an app, I always like to go overboard, for the sake of "breathing room". My current system has a CPU that cost me (in Oct 2013) $300, which was more than my ASUS Sabertooth X79! The one I built in 2008 was $90 for the 2.6 dual and $250 for my motherboard! *I hate it when techs don't warn of more extreme scenarios, that still count as average use!!*

[@SilverHelm19]

But what if i dont got a backplate hole in my case and i dont want to take my motherboard out, is it then worth with an h80i

[@Frikgeek]

SilverHelm19 It isn't, a non overclocked CPU should be just fine with the stock cooler in an average case. And even if it weren't, are you seriously suggesting that buying a 200$ water cooling setup just to avoid taking out your mobo? Are you serious? 200$ for about 20 minutes of work?

[@devilsoffspring5519]

If your fans won't clear your memory or other projections on the motherboard, what you can do is use smaller diameter fans. As long as they have the same motor power, they'll move roughly the same amount of air and have the same cooling effect. So, if a 140 or 120mm fan doesn't fit, you can use 92mm fans. Just make sure the motor power (in Watts) is the same. If the rated fan current is the same, they'll have a similar cooling effect, and smaller fans can clear your high memory sticks. If in doubt, use a fan with somewhat higher wattage than the larger one you're replacing--it'll cool just fine.

[@TonnyCassidy]

stock cooler is good if you're not overclocking ? i use stock cooler on my i7 4790 and when i run prime95 the temp jump to 100 degree(in less then 10 sec) and thermal throttle start to underclock my cpu,and again my cpu is a non k 4790,no overclock,running on Z97 board (i feel stupid for doing this ,non k cpu on a Z97)

What are your temps in idle and while gaming? If it's 60 °C in idle and 80 - 90 while gaming, the cooler may not be mounted quite correctly or the thermal compound isn't doing its job quite properly.

[@TheHenricus69]

Liquid cooling Rules! EK , swiftec, XSPC liquidcooling kits are easy to install if you take your time, and they perform way better than anything else, o yes and they look very cool in your case! If you want super easy take a Corsair, nzxt Craken closed loop system. I dont use air-coolers any more, the are to big and clumsy, and take a lot of space. I you want a good aircooler, go for Noctua D14, ore a nice looking be-quite cooler. Grounding is easy, switch the PSU of, and touch the case. (:

[@TheSoxmania]

if your system's new, it's not an issue as long as it is not visible that the parts were water damaged, the manufacturer will take them back and replace them (if water marks are visible, then use rubbing alcohol to remove it), luckily pre filled liquid coolers are very robust and it is unlikely that they will fail unless they're old and the rubber pipes have perished which shouldn't happen for about 9 years!

If all the specs of the custom and the all in one are the same or pretty close then yeah they will preform the same or close to it. The major disadvantages to the all in one are 1) Tube length it adds unnecessary pressure on the pump and you have to find a way to route all the hose without kinking it or find a spot it can reach 2) Expandability if later you decide you want to cool a GPU too the pump is not designed to have more than the CPU/radiator and the radiator will likely not be big enough

[@Ghennesph]

howabout a fast as possible explaining input latency? I think a lot of people could benefit from the information.(ie, 30fps + 60hz display + 2 frame buffer = 82~66ms latency before input device latency is considered)

[@TampaGigWorker]

20 years of owning cars, especially used ones from my younger years, I specifically remember the radiator would often leak at some point in the car's life span. So for that alone, I'm never going to water cool my computer electronics. I could be wrong about these computer gadgets, but idk you tell me

[@KamenMinkov]

Stock coolers don't actually come for free. Yes, they are most often included with the CPU, but if you look at prices of CPUs that are offered as 'tray', you'll see that they are usually like $10 or $20 less expensive than the box retail version of the same CPU.

This is extremely unlikely with a prefilled loop. Most leaks in custom loops occur where tubing connects to water-blocks, radiators, pumps, reservoirs or other fittings; prefilled loops have lets points of failure in this sense. Also leaks usually do not develop over time and occur straight away, therefore if the loop is likely to leak it would have leaked during shipping.

I'm going to have a i7 4930k (six cores), OC at 4.0 Ghz, should I have water cooling, or will a V3 Voltair High Performance Thermoelectric CPU Cooler work as a fan. I may travel a little, and fear that water cooling may come loose.
