Would it be worth it?

So Right now I have a Hyper 212+ and my max temp it 62c on a 3770k @ 4.3. Should I get a pre-built loop? or stick with what I have.

If you get something like an H100i, H80i, H220, H110, Kraken x40, or the x60, your temperatures will certain go down quite a bit. But the H110, x40, and x60 use 140mm fans(which makes the rad without the tanks, 280mm long).

Getting something like an h100i would lower your temps but I'd be happy with the 62°c

i say stick with what you have ... maby get swap out your thermal paste if  it's stock or old ... 62 degrees is just fine under max load 

(1) high frame rate (2) ultra graphics settings (3) cheap...>> choose only two<<...

 

if it's never been done then i'm probably tryna do it. (((((((Bass so low it HERTZ)))))))

Yeah I have been folding with the CPU maxed for about 3 hours and thats max.

 

If you get something like an H100i, H80i, H220, H110, Kraken x40, or the x60, your temperatures will certain go down quite a bit. But the H110, x40, and x60 use 140mm fans(which makes the rad without the tanks, 280mm long).

I couldn't go with a 110 or anyother 140mm fan design being my case will only support up to 240mm rads. (Getting the C70)

Part of me wants to and part of me doesn't want to being that would mean raising voltage.

How do you even do that?  My 2600K hit high 70s at 4.4 on a Hyper 212... :lol:

 

Anyway, yeah, you're perfectly fine.  Get a closed loop if you want it for the looks, but in terms of performance it won't do much for you, especially if you're not overclocking.

Do you want not much more performance get a new cooler, if you are happy with your current performance stick with it.

Not sure how it happed lol. I do kinda want a bit higher OC and better looks along with when I bring the rig to LAN parties I don't like a huge block just hanging out .

I fairly happy with it but bringing it around that is the only sketchy thing to me is having a block stick out over everything and putting stress on the MoBo. Also having a higher OC would be cool also.

If you really want to move that OC up 2-3MHz then do it.
