I'll take a look into the list there, but if time stays on my side, I might be able to instead just opt for a an upgrade, but we'll see what to do about that based on next week when I get paid. I suspect if I have to go the AIO Route, Then I'll be moving on to Arctic just for the wider range of Compatibility if I go with the 240mm, Air coolers would definitely be more difficult because I want to ensure that I'm not going to end up ruining future plans, if you find anything else let me know, I know I've been having difficulty finding things.

I figured, but that is my current cooler that I am in the process of trying to replace. I'll take a dive into these, sadly I figured Custom Loop Cooling was a dominant pick for the Dark Series, and I'm battling time at the moment on two fronts, one is that the ability to get all the parts but my new processor which would allow me to use an NH-D15 Air cooler, that ship has landed at port recently and the question just instead becomes how will I finance that. That being said, I can buy an interim processor and then do a processor swap down the road so that I can instead switch everything about my build and set not have to keep asking about cooler types. That said I'll still take a deep dive through the part list.

Sadly, it's because of iCue that I won't buy Corsair again, Corsair's iCue system is too much bloat for my liking especially as I have no other components that can take advantage of iCue. And while the ability to disable the RGB is a welcome one, I refuse to pay the price premium difference between an RGB and Non-RGB Cooler. I still thank you for the suggestion as when it comes to AIOs Corsair is one of the top Manufacturers using Asetek Cooling Pumps, but I won't be buying their coolers again.
-
Sadly I refuse to do a Corsair AIO as this build was designed to have no RGB, plus Corsair doesn't really give you much to work with in terms of fan curves without installing their bloat.

Sounds good, I'll look into that, any other Coolers you might recommend I throw into the ring when I do inevitably ask the question in stream?
-
I'll check out the streams around 8am if I can, but the 9pm stream, I'd likely be more able to catch later tonight. I would recommend reading the posts, but if you'd rather not, I'll shorthand this, I had looked into the Scythe Fuma 2 but Scythe and Deepcool both do not have any compatibility information save for socket compatibility. Noctua on the other hand and their NH-D15, and NH-D15S are not compatible with my motherboard due to a VRM clearance issue, so Noctua is mostly a no fly zone, though they remain on my list for a different build I'm working on. The Arctic liquid freezer II 240 seems to be the angle I'm leaning towards at this rate, but I'm still looking for suggestions for coolers to look into, AIO recommendations are not needed as in the AIO realm I'll pick Arctic over say NZXT and Corsair purely because the current system is a no RGB System.

Do you know what time the livestream takes place, I'm about to leave for work this morning and I worry I won't be able to catch the livestream.

I thought so too but I'd more likely say silicone quality was barely good enough to begin with, especially since I had dropped the voltage to below 1.23v but that will quickly become a discussion that belongs elsewhere. So the problem isn't the fans, it's that there isn't 140mm of clearance between the bottom of the vrm heatsink and fan assembly and the top pcie bracket, the board has some very strange clearance limitations, I suspect initially it was mostly designed for ln2 pots and water cooling blocks. More and more though I suspect a 240mm AIO like the Arctic Liquid Freezer II will be a good fit to eventually move into a different system later down the road.
-
Not exactly I initially bought that motherboard because of some of it's overclocking features which were mostly nice to haves as a technician such as the Post Code, Dual Bios, and better VRM Support for overclocking, my processor was able to maintain 4.8Ghz all core in it's earlier life but after about 3 years, the processor has begun to age due to long term use. So at this point I'm now running at base clock whenever Intel's Turbo Boost is unavailable to preserve my processor lifetime. To that End I agree that the 240 AIO will likely be alright, though if investing in another AIO, I'd want to make sure that it'll be inter-compatible with the other motherboards and processor options I'm looking into for other projects.
-
Yeah, Noctua gave the list of the NH-D9, NH-D9DX, and NH-L9, the NH-L9 is likely not gonna cut it but the rest of them are rated by Noctua's list as the lowest performers, that being said that's still pretty good, I just worry about what if situations, and I can't trust part picker as it doesn't account for the VRM clearance issue.

No there is not a budget for the Cooler but I'd like to avoid Custom Loop Liquid Cooling, it's not something I have time to dedicate to since I work almost all week normally and only get a day between workdays normally. I had checked with noctua however their cooling performance given my processor and motherboard combo is minimal, I do know noctua coolers that work with my board exist but they would be less desirable than something designed for the thermal output of my 10 core monstrosity. I agree I may be condemned to an AIO or Custom Loop, that being said, an AIO is undesirable if an Air Cooler is possible, and Custom Loop is a no go as I usually don't have time to build and validate for custom loop cooling. I do remember Arctic and Their Liquid Freezer 2 Cooler being a good bet, but it's an AIO and again I am trying to avoid those.
-
Also, taking a quick look, due to space constraints in the system I don't believe the Ice Giant ProSiphon will work for my system, could be wrong though.

I currently have an EVGA CLC 360 AIO in the rig, but I'd ideally like to move away from AIO Liquid coolers. That being said, Failing that, I'd want to downsize in which case, for stable temps, a 240mm rad is the smallest I'd be able to go.
-
Thank you for the reply, Yes it would indeed be an Intel i9-9900X 10 Core Processor.

Hello Tech Tips Forum, As the Title Suggests I am needing some assistance finding a new CPU Cooler for my Intel 9900X CPU socketed on my EVGA x299 Dark Motherboard, this motherboard is what makes things complicated because it's VRM Cooling solution eliminates my ability to Select Coolers like the Noctua NH-D15 or BeQuiet! Dark Rock Pro 4. So with that said, I'm needing some Suggestions to help with purchasing a new CPU Cooler until I can inevitably make the upgrade to AMD, the reason I need a new cooler is mostly because I suspect my 3-4 year old EVGA CLC 360 is beginning to head on it's way out. So as such I need help with suggestions for a new cooler, I do have some brands I intend to avoid, one such brand is NZXT. Preferably I'd like to get an Air Cooler, but I am open to Liquid Coolers, that being said, Air Coolers are the priority. Any and All suggestions are helpful but I really need help with finding compatible coolers. Thanks.
