Hi Everyone,
Just looking for some advice on my next cooler, at the moment I have a:
Antec Freezer Pro Rev 2.
This keeps me at a 'ok' 50C when the CPU is loaded up and its even overclocked from 3.1 Ghz to 4.2 Ghz
I am looking to go bigger ( cooler ) though as the Antec Freezer pro rev 2 does the job but I'd like things to be a little cooler especially when I start pushing the CPU harder.
Air or Water? I have been looking at the H100 etc and they look good, I used to have a water cooling custom set-up but got rid of that ages ago and the thought of going back there does not interest me, so the H100 would be perfect, however you can get Air coolers that will do just as well unless you manually configure the fans to blast H100 at a constant speed by not using its on-board controller ?
I'm pushing towards Air at the moment, I don't like the fact you cant have finer control over the H100 (correct me if I'm wrong) and the pre-set settings just don't really do it for me, may as well have Air. Cost wise there's not that much in it so just looking for the best solution =D
Any advice / comments welcome
