CPU Cooler

[littlepigboy5]

Hello,

I am looking for a fanless cpu cooler for the lga 1150 socket that will fit on the msi b85-g41 in a fractal design define r4 with low profil ram.  Obviously, its not for performance, its for being quiet.  Preferably sub 40$.  I have an i5 4570 so no overclocking anyway.

Thanks

Hyper 212 Evo, or just stick to your stock cooler if you don't want to spend money on one or a fanless cpu cooler if you want no noise at all.

I don't recommend fanless coolers. Just get a 212 evo with a Noctua or be quiet fan.

not sure if it will fit in define R4 (should) but.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=13C-0007-00002&cm_re=fanless_cpu_cooler-_-13C-0007-00002-_-Product just be careful as they do need at least a little air flow to pull the heat out.. I haven't run fanless in a LONG time..

Can I use the hyper 212 evo and just remove the fan?  It seems like a good cooler design and i have 2 140mm intake fans and a 120mm out take fan.

why not just set the bios to auto level the CPU fan so it turns down the speed when its not being pushed? most modern motherboards support this.

Hmmm Fanless coolers need very good airflow from your fans. 2x140mm and only one small 120mm out take fan is not what I would consider especially good airflow.

 

Turn down the RPM of the cpu.....

the 80mm stock fan is too loud for me no matter what

Ok, then ill probably just go witha  hyper 212 evo, that should be quiet enough.

I wasn't saying the stock is good, stocks do the job but aren't good.. 212 limited RPM should be fairly quiet.

That wouldn't be recommended...
