Hi guys

 

Currently got the below pc setup where CPU is hitting 90c on stock speeds and stock sleath cooler which I think is too hot. Have 2 X 120mm fans at the front as intake. And 1 X 80mm exhaust at the back and 1 X 120mm at the side as exhaust.

 

Amd Ryzen 5 2400g. 

Asus Prime B450

8gb patriot viper 3000mhz (2 X 4gb)

Sapphire rx570 pulse ITx this runs max 65c

Can you recommend a cooler that would fit in my case. I was tempted to go cooler master 120 light water cooling and mount the radiator on the side of the case. Possible as an extra fan to radiator for push pull config. Budget is fairly flexible but don't really want to spend much more than £30.00

I would go with an AIO in the front exhausting rotation so it pushes air out. so your air intake is from the side.

The 80mm at the back of the case is an intake. Flip it to exhaust instead and see if that helps. What are your temps with the side panel removed?

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Have you tried checking the thermal paste spread and reseating the stock cooler?

I think the key answer I am looking for us to reduce my cpu temps via a different cooling solution

 

So need a new CPU cooler that would fit in the case

 

Fan slot wise. I have 2 X 120mm at the front. ,120mm at the side and 80mm at the back. All the 120mm fans are the same 

 

I don't the no it's a case issue as GPU is fairly cool

Use an All In One cpu cooler. a 240mm cooler should be a nice fit in front and the fan should be exhausting outside not inside.

So 240 radiator at front and the side and rear fan as Intakes. 

 

I assume cooler masters series as okay for the prices 

yup that will still give you great airflow and keep your cpu temps close to ambient temps.

 

Any slim form radiator is your best bet doesnt matter if its from cooler master or who ever. just check the pump model. Higher the better.
