Hi, new to the forums so i hope I'm doing this right I have recently built my new Pc, specs are:
GPU:Asus Strix GTX 970 CPU:Intel I7 4790K RAM:32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 PSU:Corsair CX600M (Changing soon) Mobo:Asus Z97K Case:Corsair 230T
Now, right now I am using the standard intel cooler that came with my CPU, however I am very particular with aesthetics and while it is doing a good job at keeping the CPU at reasonable temperatures, it looks awful in my case haha and I was looking at a 212 Evo as it is within my price range, however I would like to run it without the fan, I have an exhaust fan both directly behind and above the CPU running at max speed as I do not care for quietness too much (noise cancelling headphones) and I was wondering if this would be either equal to or an improvement over the stock cooler in terms of temperatures, thanks! -Carlstone13
