im dealing wif clearance of just about 66mm...

Best CPU Coolers for i7

Guys, KillwerWhale need to use different bracket onot? Only got the standard "H bracket"..or can call it crossbow?

Scare when changing platform cant use the Cooler

just check the official site for the socket compatibility la...

LMAO.. i almost cried when my sunbeam CCF became useless when i change to i5... but somehow.. with a little electric Drill and some small screws + nuts + washers, i managed to mod the LGA775 mount to fit the LGA1156

doing orthos on stock clocks (not too sure on how to OC the i5 yet).. shall post the results soon ... too bad i dont have a camera to snap some pics of it

*edit* here we go

eh eh nice girl temp

will update for ya when i am free

btw, ada pix for modded stuff ker?

mounted the cooler already.. kinda lazy to take it out at the moment :/ .... but all i do is hammer the push-pins out and drill the holes bigger.. then use screws to bolt the bracket onto the mobo

anyways.. did some light OC to 3.5ghz (got it to 3.9ghz with turbo on but not so stable with the vcore i wanted which is 1.3v).. here's the temp



core i5, tuniq TX2, sunbeam CCF, idle: 35, load: 59, ambient: 24 (rainy day ), normal casing fans

Can I know whether is Q6600's temp is higher than Core i5's temp?

My Q6600 always idle's at 44-46C
I wish I could go lower than that..

If rainy days.. its 38-40C..

EDIT: Btw, my Q6600 is running only at 2.4GHz..

updated liao

sorry not much time nowadays

erm... its like that one la

that proc is not really known for being cool and its 65nm anyways

haha.. no prob TS ...
Q6600 memang quite hot wan ler.. on 3.5ghz it hit 75-ish for me, with the same cooler

guys, want ask. want to upgrade my hyper212 to xigmatek scorpion. worth it?

i dont think so there's any need to change unless u like the design of the scorpion..... the difference is not too far from what i can see here

u can take TRUE as the reference and from what i tested personally, scorpion only lost a few degree c to TRUE

u can make ur own comparison here

http://www.anandtech.com/casecoolingpsus/s...aspx?i=3141&p=6

your xiggy and the CM hyper 212 shouldnt have much diff .... or probably the CM will have lower idle temps .... i realized that HDT has higher temps in the lows... but a lil superior in the highs..

if you want an upgrade.. why not get a delta fan and replace the xiggy's LED fan

hi...all sifu...
i planning to get the true 120 black edition rev.C....
and what fan should be gonna go ?
FM123 ? CM 2000rpm fan ?? or??

And who has sell them?(the cheapest )

Ada money get fm123 lo. tarak money get cm 90cfm lo. as long u have fan controller. then nice liao.

but black edition is like normal true nia. just have to pay extra bucks for being black.

who sell cheapest u go garage sales survey la

fm123 is good if u can tahan noise

kalo want silent get xigmatek XLF fan

From the web it said support LGA1366 socket but from what i have, the default bracket seem not fit from the mounting hole..thats y im asking lol..
U think i didnt have LGA1366 Mobo for quick test the socket? Dun put the Discussion tag la, change to "Google adviser". Even the Main web oso didnt put any LGA1366 Diagram installation guide like other socket zzz

Actually, This cooler bought from tkh long time ago..and i hope tkh or any fellas here have the solution. I need some advise & Finding additional bracket if appropriate as well..
Or maybe endup with sales and upgrade

Thx

rilex la bro

i am really sorry here cos i didnt follow up on recent news much already nowadays due to studies

i think maybe the 1366 support uses a newer bracket

maybe the bracket u currently have i think is a older ones cos that time still takde 1366

cooler cannot fit.. you can hunt for those WC mounting or brackets from other HSF to to fit... or you can make your own.. its not that hard if you have the tools XD

Give Thermalright fan a try
