i7 5820k Cooling

[Elajitz]

Hey i am new here!

I have a Radiator from Cooler Master Hyper EVO 212 on my i7 5820K non OC,
And i have used the fan that came whit the cooler,
I was needed to buy 2 pair of coolers to get 2 fans for push pull config
And it was working nicely! but now after 4/5 years of use those fans start to slowly dying.
So my next move is to get 2 pairs of
Noctua NF-F12 120mm PWM
So my question is will that be a good choice?

because Noctuna seems to aims for the silent variants, And not high RPM's?

i looking for performance and low temps and i don't care so much about screaming fans

i7-5820k Stock speeds 3.3Mhz
Hyper Evo 212 Evo Push pull config Tempratures

idle low 38c / Tops 40c Ambient temp is 23c

Load temp
low 51c / tops 60c Ambient temp 25c

All answers is welcome!

Thx!

For the price of the fans you could basically buy a better cooler if you want.

even with a silence-focused design, Noctua's fans are very  good with airflow. The NF-F12 in push/pull would give you pretty good cooling.

But also if you are not as interested in premium cooling along with silence, you can look at Noctua's less expensive offerings

Arctic p12 pwm pst 5-pack is usually the smartest choice. A lot cheaper than Noctua f12 and same if not better perf.

what LGA 2011-3 coolers can you recommend?

+1 for the Redux P12. I normally us iPPC (Noctua's industrial line) F12 and F14s, they're static pressure monsters but they have noticeable drone even at med-low RPM. Reduxes don't seem to have that, they're whisper quiet at low rpms and only make a light woosh when ramped up, so in my latest build I used the P12 fans. 

 

You shouldn't need two fans for the cooler IMO. If you need push-pull, you didn't have enough surface area to begin with and would be better off with a larger cooler. Or custom loop, which is what I moved to when an NH-D15S couldn't handle my 5820K when OCed (with 3200Mhz RAM and ~1.3-1.35v vCore the Haswell-E chips become a furnace, they're very docile at lower voltages though).

How much do you wanna spend? Also do you want to overclock? These chips are ez overclockers with a ton of potential performance.

okay! i have a Define R5 case whit 2 140mm dynamic Gp at front intake

abd on at top side and back  for out!.. so 60c at 5820k stock speed during load is not high badly high?

NH-D15S, you'll be good unless you're pushing high voltages, and its usually cheaper than the D15. Unless you have an EVGA board, then you'd want something with a smaller finstack (EVGA puts the top PCIe slot very close to the socket on their X79 and X99 boards, so GPUs can't clear the D15S properly). If you never OC, it'll keep your chip icy cold for years (at least 6, that's how long Noctua warranties them for), and can be carried forward to new systems (so long as you can provide proof of purchase - even a screenshot of an eBay order works - for the motherboard and cooler, Noctua will send you any mounting hardware you need free of charge). Or backwards in my case, as I had them send me an LGA 1366 mount kit for my D15S so I could use it for my X58 stuff.

Even the 80s would be fine for stock operation. 80C and above only gets uncomfortable if you're pushing past stock limits, 60C is nice and crisp.

i stick to stock speeds as this Processor is getting harder to get hands on now days!

i have a asus x99A board

that was a nice thing to hear! i was so bloody worry fry bu cpu when i suddenly start to see it ramping up to 60c in some games mostly

it stays around 55ish

You can run a cpu fine for years upon years on 90c, the T-max for that CPU should be 100C.

So you are completely taking care of that CPU right now, I wouldn't spend any money on those fans, as not needed at all.

i will replace  the cool paste, it was 5 years ago i changed it now!

and i cleaning my pc pretty frequently! Nice my TJ.Max is 94 but i am faraway from that number atm

After Cleaning my Pc and put some Arctic silver 5 thermal paste

And replaced the Stock EVO 212 Fans whit the Noctuna NF-F12 (Push Pull) ( No L.N.A Adpater)

i notice 2-3c difference my ambient temperature is around 24c+

this is the highest temp i reach 1h Playing Cyperpunk 2077
