Posted June 20, 2017 Author Ok I think I've made a choice, been thinking about it earlier whilst watching YT and I decided that I might extend a budget a little bit and go a tiny bit overkill but that's ok, because aesthetics and sound are all that I'm concerned about, just want it very quiet, looking and performing pretty damn well. Gonna go with a particular beQuiet! Cooler (Dark Rock 3) despite the price Looks like the best option and I tried looking for both the Deepcool one and several Cryorig ones and couldn't find them as New, only second-hand as the condition on certain sites, they were 'New' on eBay but meh I dunno so much @MEC-777, @PCGuy_5960 @NCIX Lampy, @DocSwag, @Ordinarily_Greater Like I said, a tiny bit overkill but I'm alright with that, so long as it performs pretty damn well in terms of noise. Quote DR3 is one of the quietest cooler out there, but that level of quiteness for 60 pounds isn't worth it imo Page-1 of this topic -^ Hey I'm Xiauj Wassup :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) Author @MEC-777, @PCGuy_5960, @DocSwag and others: I haven't ordered it just yet but I just wanted to ask something which I hadn't really noticed until just now. Seeing as I recently swapped out my old 450w PSU for a brand new EVGA G2 650w PSU and the case as some of you know, the PSU should be fine, right ..? I don't want the same story all over again; aka the PSU overheating then suddenly shutting down my PC unexpectedly. The reason I ask is because the Dark Rock 3 according to the box/pic in PCPP shows 190W TDP and like on this beQuiet! Shadow Rock 2 cooler for example, it shows 180W TDP but then on my PCPP List... it shows this..?: Errr......... Can't tell if that's a UI Bug or what. Also DocSwag, was that the cooler you were recommending? Not sure if it was that specific one you had meant Trying to (re)decide between Dark Rock 3, Shadow Rock 2 or H7 or anything else . Also this might sound absolutely ridiculous but... Spoiler Would adding a really good beQuiet/Noctua 120mm/whatever-size based fan onto a medium-range cooler still keep it nice and quiet in terms of sound and temperatures..? Or would a top of the range fan not really help much?

Ignoring aesthetics for a second here, would sound and temps be fine? Or would a top of the range fan not really help much? Reveal hidden contents Kinda Curious I think adding a good fan to one of the lower cost coolers isn't really worth it. For a high end fan you're looking at $20 or so for the fan alone, add that to the $30-$35 you're already paying for the cooler that's pretty much into stuff like dark rock 3 and u14s territory, both of which COME with a $20 fan (dark rock 3 comes with a silent wings 3, I'm not sure about u14s but I'm guess it comes with noctua's best fan), and also look nicer (at least in the dark rock 3's case) and have a bigger heatsink so you end up with lower temps and better noise. It would help, no doubt, I just don't think it'd be worth it. Is this CPU cooler going to be for your fx CPU and are you gonna be overclocking at all?

As for the overclocking, I won't be overclocking and I know that's why people normally buy these types of aftermarket coolers but honestly this will be worth (I hope) in terms of noise and I suppose aesthetics, because the stock cooler that I've had for 4 years is just getting more and more louder to me at least. Cannot wait to hear silence and hopefully erase most of the heat for a change lol.

If it's at stock, I think one of the cheaper ones (cryorig h7, shadow rock 2, or the deepcool mentioned earlier) would be fine. I'd probably go for either shadow rock 2 or deepcool one if aesthetics don't matter much, h7 looks better imo so if aesthetics matter that would probably be a better option.

Hopefully it's pretty damn quiet and better than the H7 in terms of noise and performance Yeah I know, I knew that waaaaaaaaay before I made this topic But hey, that one looks nicer in Black though. I would probably put them around equals. Judging by the things @PCGuy_5960 linked the h7 is cooler but it's also louder and judging by the margins between them I would guess and say they would be kind of similar in thermal performance. Just a guess though. Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied!

Or this: @DocSwag Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market. Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me! I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Posted July 2, 2017 Author Update: So um, I have decided to order the beQuiet! Shadow Rock 2 CPU Cooler Was still thinking about the Dark Rock 3 but I decided to hold back on that decision. Am hoping that the noise calms down a lot, lol. And hopefully it will stop the continuous moaning in my house.... (..lol). Thanks again @DocSwag / @PCGuy_5960 and others for the recommendations, I do appreciate it. Now I just gotta wait for it to arrive!
