Best Budget After Market CPU Cooler For i5 3570k

[eatSt]

Hi, I am looking for decent budget based cooler that can help me lower down cpu temperatures

on aida 64 i am having cpu package temp reaching 80 degrees celsius...so i need some decent cooler so that it helps lower my cpu temp as well as supports a mediocre overclocking too.


I have seen this cooler pls review this

Your deepcool link is 404.

The low cost canon requires mention of the CM Hyper 212 EVO. Can be found on sale <$30.

In the $35-50 range, the Thermalright Macho 120, Scythe Kotetsu/Mugen 4 and Thermalright True 140 Rev A are great cooling per dollar values. And allow higher, quieter overclocks than the 212 and the mystery deepcool model.

Oh...a cheap, under performing AIO.

You might get a few degrees better than a 212, but you will pay for it in noise - 3X the noise of the air coolers mentioned above. It costs $20-30 more than the Thermalright True Spirit 140 BW Rev.A and doesn't cool as well.

If you're determined to get a kindergarten version of water cooling there are better performing AIOs, like the NZXT’s X41 or Corsair H90.

Watercooling under $100 is a marketing wet dream. But, it's still a dream that often becomes a nightmare. Save yourself some grief - get a good quality, affordable air cooler and save up for a proper water cooling loop.

These are all great suggestions, I'd toss in the Scythe Mugen Max (supposed to retail near $50, cannot find it at that price in the US though) and the ACFZ i30 (typically ~$40).

What case are you using, OP?

How budget are we talking about here? My i7-860 has a high-end copper heatpipe AMD heatsink ziptied onto it. It actually outperforms the Intel stock heatsink by about 10°C under load, and you can get them for peanuts from people who buy an FX83xx CPU and upgrade to an aftermarket CPU straight off the bat.

i7 runs happily at 3.4Ghz only because I haven't had time to tune the overclock any further. I could probably get close to 4Ghz without hitting the thermal throttling ceiling.

Hyper212+ or 212EVO. Either would be more than sufficient for a highly OCed (~4.5GHz) 3570K.

Scary.

Scary.

80c is not dangerous. Your chip is safe up to 105c (and will probably run for decades near that temperature), so you don't *need* a new cooler. However, if you want one, the CM Hyper 212 EVO is the way to go.
