Hyper 212 EVO

[BaconPie]

Hey, my question this time is that can a Hyper 212 EVO fit in a Corsair Carbide 300R?Also, is it enough to overclock an i5-4670k to 4.4 GHz?

[helping]

yeah, and probably. 

 

You will likely need another fan to keep temperatures within a tolerable threshold should your chip be a glutton for volts.

[nixproducer]

yes and possibly

that OC will be possible but I expect the temps will be pretty high

Depends on how good you chip is. If you had a great chip, you wouldn't need to increase the voltage at all to get to 4.4ghz. Thus creating lower temperatures.

 

If you have a bad chip. you might need 1.4 volts to get to 4.4ghz. Thus creating a very high temperature.

It should overclock to that, if you do well in the silicon lottery, but I would go for a beefier cooler to reach those speeds just to make sure it doesn't get too hot, and yes the 212 evo will fit in the 300r

I guess time will tell, but if I'll end up with a bad chip 4.3 or 4.2 will do the job as well.I know, stupid question but how much chance do I have to get a chip that doesnt need overvolting?

Something like a Noctua NH-U12DX is in the beefier category?

Low chance. If you do get one, let us know

I'll only know it at the end of july so...long wait till then.Chances for 4.2 are much higher, right?

Yes

yeah, a noctua nhu12s, be quiet dark rock 3, even the coolermaster 412s are better heatsinks, although the 412s isn't that much better than the 212 evo.
