i7-4790k + Hyper 212 Evo?

[Totalimus]

Hello.

I was wondering if the Hyper 212 Evo Air cooler would be enough for my i7 4790k which I am planning to OC at least to 4.5GHz.

Or maybe I can go even higher than that? If so, please tell me.

I have a Fractal Design Define R5 case with good cable management, 1 intake fan at front, 1 exhaust fan at the back and using only 1 GPU card.

My mobo is Maximus Vii Hero, which has a good chipset for oc'ing from what I have read.

 

So will my temparatures be okay? 

[Samppa221]

I don't think it will get you to 4.5 more like 4.2

[kameshss]

Get a better CPU cooler if you are overclocking at such speed.

should be fine, some people oc to 4.3 and their load is at 50C, but you will kinda be pushing it alittle, give it a try and monitor your temps

[OAcesync]

Unless you get a bit lucky with the silicon lottery I don't think you would get that since that cooler won't handle higher voltages well but we honestly won't really know until you try it but I would still recommend getting something better if you have the money.

THere are some better coolers for the same price. For a little more you could get some seriously good cooling.

for the same price? I doubt it

Please tell me what are the options, since I don't mind spending a little more.

I see you have the exact same CPU and Air cooler.

How much did you overclock, what temps are you getting?

4.5GHz should be doable without a problem unless you get a really bad chip. I ran a very stable 24/7 4.6GHz (1.22v) and occasional 4.8GHz (1.32v) with my 212 evo without a problem for 6 months although I did upgrade to a NH-D14 (50$used) and get better temps.  I've heard the bequiet purerock will get slightly better temps at a lower noise and similar price level if its available

edit: if you have a hot GPU I would add another intake to get better case flow but as long as you aren't encoding video 24/7 you'll be good and should be able to stay under 80c while running a stress test like xtu for 8 hours +

For a little more you could get something like a thermalright true spirit for $50. For the money its pretty ridiculous.

for the same price? I doubt it

Enermax ETS-T40-TB- Better performance and mounting

CRYORIG H7- Better performance and mounting

BeQuiet Purerock- Better Performance and acoustics

RAIJINTEK AIDOS- Better performance and Cheaper

RAIJINTEK THEMIS- Better performance

All these are above the price as the 212 evo.. when I mean for the same price I mean THE SAME PRICE

But of course OP can go for something better if he pays for more

For 50 bucks i would recomend a thermalright Macho or a Cryorig H5 ultimate. Those are both excellent coolers and worth the money.

Personally i would get the thermalright macho, that thing is a monster of a cooler at a crazy decent price.

actually depending where you buy all of those coolers are about the same as the hyper 212 evo (30+-5 dollars) except for the raijintek, those are cheaper.

True spirit is a little cooler and quieter from what i've seen.

I didn't OC as you can see I am currently bottlenecked for Reasons.

212 evo is pretty cool at 30 idle and 50-60 load

I would recommend the pure rock cooler for OCing on the 4790k

or the NH-D15

[tomas710]

The Macho trades blows with the NH-D14, it's crazy, i started noticing it when Pistol from tek syndicate used it on her build with an overclocked 5820k, it could even do passive without an overclock, which is pretty awesome

Oh my bad they are different by $2-3

cool.

[Lethal Seraph]

Cryorig H7 is also decent for $35.

look how close it is to the nh-d15

[Paralectic]

I don't think it will get you to 4.5 more like 4.2

4.2 is below turbo frequency? lmao..

[Zayzo]

4.2 is below turbo frequency? lmao..

So? On full 4 core load you don't even get turbo so its still an increase.

[Manny Calavera]

look how close it is to the nh-d15

this is crazy

[Zayzo]

this is crazy

And its only $50 lol

[Manny Calavera]

And its only $50 lol

it makes Macho look bad LMAO!11!!one!111one!1
