Air cooler choice!

[Abel225]

Hi all!

 

So recently, maybe yesterday or the day before I posted a topic about noctua coolers. Well it turned out that I had to spend some money on other things and now I don't have money for such an expensive cooler!

My current choices are either a hyper 212x or a shadow rock slim cooler from be quiet! they are very similarly prices here in Hungary. I know people always recommend the 212 evo, or the 212x as I don't see many differences. But the shadow rock slim looks soo much better in my opinion. I'm just curious if there is any performance gains with either. i will run a i7 3770 none k so the overclocking does not matter. But I hate how loud and ugly the stock cooler is.

 

Thanks for your input!!

A Dark Pro 3 or anything from Noctua will work really well.

For the future if you aren't overclocking almost any cooler should give you acceptable temps, you could even do a passive cooling heatsink if your case has good airflow

Well I already ordered the shadow rock slim. And my current case is an old asus case that has no fans. So I do need a cpu cooler. I just want to have a quite system.

I see. I already ordered the shadow rock slim. It looks better and I'm pretty sure it will do wonders
