Question about hyper 212 evo

Hello

So I ran prime 95 yesterday and after 5 minutes my i5 4570 hit 90c, which is very worrying..

I need a heatsink to replace the stock one, and I'm looking at the hyper 212 evo but I'm worried that the ram will get in the way:

Because it's a mini itx board, and the ram has a massive heat spreader I'm worried the 212 evo won't fit...

If anyone can let me know if it will fit that would be great, and if it doesn't fit than mabye suggest me another cooler

Thanks.

It will fit. You can just mount the fan slightly higher or mount the heatsink the other way round and flip the fan into "pull".

 

90 °C is really bad though, get a new cooler and mount it properly with the adequate amount of thermal compound.

who cares...

I would argue that it won't fit. If you put in the EVO with the fan over the RAM, the fins will make contact with the rear of the GPU.

you can always use the fan in pull mode. (so yeah it will work)

The space between GPU and CPU is the same on every ITX board. Cooelr master has thought about that eventuality. It will fit.

Explain to me then why the EVO didn't fit that way next to my GTX 770 on my Gigabyte GA-H61N-USB3. That's wildly incorrect.

 

You're right about the board after viewing a head-on image of the motherboard, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

What about something like a h55 or cm siedon 120v?

youre not supposed to run these kind of stresstests on haswell cpu's. IIRC they cause the cpu to get additional voltage which makes it run hotter than it should.

Looking at other ITX H61 board, nobody followed a standard. These days you're very unlikely to find a motherboard that can't fit a 120mm wide cooler.

 

It'll fit.

 

Two things: Are you just using the stock fans? And Prime shouldn't be used with Haswell.

Yeah I read, I'll start using cinebench or Intel extreme tuning utility or something:)
