johnny333 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Does anyone have this combo Noctua NH-D14 and Asus M4A87TD? Does it block any of the Ram slots and does the backing plat that comes with the mother board work? I have a 955 AMD what kind of temperatures do you get?

joel.monteiro Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I would not get the NH-D14,get something else like H50,H70,Coolit Eco,frio etc,i was disappointed by the performance with mine,with stock cooling i was getting about 55c and with nh-d14 i was gett max temp 44-45c.

El_Capitan Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Yes, I'm selling my Noctua NH_D14, and here's the link with pics over some G.Skill Ripjaws. The Noctua NH-D14 comes with it's own backplating. This is a much better cooler than the Hyper212+ that got 52C max temps in Prime95 with my 1090T at 4.0GHz, so it'll cool your 955 AMD no problem. Even my Swiftech has max temps at 45C in Prime95. Phenom II max temps for 95W TDP's are 71C, and 125W TDP's 62C. You'll be fine with even a Hyper212+.

johnny333 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I have a ZALMAN 9500A now. Would a COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus be better. Thanks Johnny333 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 What are your idle/max temps, CPU voltages, and overclock? They Hyper212+ is good, so is the Zalman CNPS 9700 NT is good (currently using that for my gf's 720 BE), too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny333 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I have it set to CPU 18x for 3.61 GHz , Vcore at 1.31 volts. My room temperature is 72F. At idle it is CPU 34C and mother board at 27C. Running Prime 95 for 45 minutes it gets to 48C or 50C. But during the summer my room will be 82F so I am looking for a better air cooler.

El_Capitan Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Dude, those temps are perfectly fine. Worry about the summer when it comes, even then it should get you above 55C at 82C room temp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny333 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I just would like a little better cooler and like the looks of the Hyper212+. Do you think it mite give me a little better temperature. Plus at 65+++ it give me something to do. Thanks Johnny333 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 They Hyper212+ won't give you as much as what you have now. Any of the ones mentioned by joel will do you fine, and the Noctua NH-D14 imo is great, but air coolers really need good case cooling. Water cooling is all about the radiators and heat dissipation.
