[eldorado99]

sid's fox

 

[alfa147x]

[alfa147x]

[eldorado99]

Running stress test now and the temps are much cooler -- I wonder if I should stick with my Xigmatek and sell or return the H60? They're a good 5 or 6 degrees cooler.

Decisions, decisions

I can't decide if I want to go from my 212+ to a megahalem or not...

Hey fox, if you're out there, be aware there is a webOS update and it kills some of the Preware stuff. On the bright side, it makes the TP just as fast without some of the Preware stuff.

sid isn't here yet or he would be lured out by my zorrito comments

I don't think the H60 is worth using unless I can knock another 5 degrees off. I doubt that will happen but I could be wrong. Right now, I've peaked at 80 on one core after about 40 minutes and the other core highs are 78, 74, and 71. Previously, I was hitting 85 and 84 on the hottest two cores.

yeah unless you want something your current cooler doesn't offer I would just return the H60. I'm probably not going to upgrade anytime soon.

I just ordered more matching 120mm fans for my case

Get a silver arrow, those wannabe liquid coolers are just that.

Rubycon!!

Yeah, I think I am going to return it. Just too lazy to install it and the Xigmatek seems to be keeping it cool enough.

Cooler weight: 825 g


not goood enough

 

[alfa147x]

Nh-d14

 

[alfa147x]

NH-D14 for $25

almost new. never mounted

im considering it

 

[Rubycon]

Silver arrow is better but performance comes down to how carefully its mounted. Weight is a big issue if the system moves. Mine are moving constantly and I've cracked a few motherboards nearly in half but that's from the systems falling over/to the floor when they're not secured. Fortunately 99.98% of the users never have to worry about this.

At that price it's a no brainer!
