Which cooler?

[Pbr38]

Hi there LTT fourm members,

 

I recently purchased an i7 6700k, MSI z170A Gaming Pro Carbon, 2x8 Corsair Vengeance DDR4, and a Noctua NH-D15.

I am currently using a Corsair H100i in my rig. The spare parts will be going to a secondary rig.  

I am wondering which cooler you guys think i should keep in my main rig and which i should put in my spare rig.

Please give some reasoning to your answers.

 

Thank you,

PBR38

 

EDIT,

 

Forgot to mention i'm using NF-F12's on my H100i

I would use the Noctua, same performance as the Corsair but at a lower noise.

Use the h100i in spare because if the thing leaks in your primary of that would be bad and also the Noctua is pretty good too.

Depends if you overclock. At stock speeds they perform about the same (+ or - 1C), but once you start putting some voltage in the AIO will remove the heat faster.

Thanks for all the replies,

 

I think i'm going to go with the D15 in the main rig for now, i can always swap them around later.

I would get a Syche Fuma over the D15. It looks better, cheaper, smaller, and performs just as good if not slightly better.
