system specs:
Fractal Define mini
ASUS x79 Gene mATX
3930k CPU (looking to OC to mid 4's)
1 platter drive, 2 solid state drives
Radeon 7950
CPU cooler support: quoted from the Fractal Design define mini page
So, that leaves me with some options but also DQ's some of the monster towers out there.
I'm not looking for recording breaking overclocks, I'd be happy with a 4.5ghz OC. What does matter to me is low idle noise and safe max temps.
Here are some coolers I'm considering:
Phanteks PH-TC14CS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835709015
Noctua NH-U12s http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835608040
H80i?
Maybe a Thermalright cooler?
What are your suggestions?
