IVIYTH0S Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 What's wrong with 90+ with IBT/Prime? WHAT? I CANT HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF MY PROCESSOR MELTING? I actually got it up to 4.6GHz for an overclocking competition, it only ran one bench at that speed but impressive for air cooling and during the bench it only hit 95c... It was a fun little experiment! I really ought to get a better cooler, I bet i could overclock it even higher... I wont be happy until my PSU explodes or my motherboard catches fire... I only got mine to 4.2ghz but my cooler had it at like mid 80s for that, not bad though. I love my cooler, it's pretty damn quiet and that's more important to me than performance I'll likely never see effecting my enjoyment of my machine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's every bit as good as the megahalems i have, and it cost less money. Only saving grace with the Megahalems is dual fans = awesome. Adding the 2nd fan way back when, actually made a big difference in temps for me, all with no noticeable increase in noise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed the logical next step from a push/pull T.R.U.E. that I had on my Q9450 (that was pretty damn quiet with my fan controller, even though it had two ultra kazes) But yeah, I'm super happy with my Zalman even though I've always had an itch to see what's the fuss about the D14 from Noctua Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it comes in my favorite color orange... Lol. But as good as it is, I can't justify the upgrade of my Megahalems. I think the only thing i could buy that would actually be worth it would be the H110, I have 2x140mm top fans so it'd be prefect in my case and the numbers are really impressive. In the end though, meh. I'd rather not put any more into my current computer, It's almost 5 years old now. Runs like a champ still but i think its getting close to time to do an entire new build. Also... Free bumps because i like you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about the Phanteks, but yeah, if I have to switch out my cooler for the next platform (due to mounting bracket incompatibility) than I'll likely get a 212+ and call it a day. I don't need a world record overclock, especially since CPUs are barely taxed. I may even go AMD for the first time just for a change of flavor Thanks for the bump!
