Cooling FX 8350
« on: December 21, 2018, 03:59:28 pm »
Sup dudes, my brother has gifted me a FX 8350 along with a Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ motherboard and 8gb ram, and certainly is not something I'd decline looking forward to update my old PC and have two, say, 'competitive' ones;

This FX 8350 monster gets high temperatures, due to which I am not sure of what to buy for cooling it; with the lowest budget possible

It's either a Cooler Master Hyper-H410r or a Hyper 212 Evo;

https://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-756343701-cooler-master-hyper-212-led-turbo-intel-1151-y-am4-overdrive-_JM?quantity=1

In terms of price, the 1st hyper is the lowest one. Does anyone have it? Does it keep the temperatures working efficiently?

The another one is a bit more expensive and takes a high amount of space, due to which I'd have to change my old PC case too. Is it worth it? Is there such a big difference with the h410r?

if you want to game, go water cooling or intel stock coolers are good enough to the cooling.

I've got that 212 EVO, and like you said it's massive. But it cools like a beast. My 6600K doesn't go above 60 degrees Celcius under full load.

I doubt once you get a 212 EVO, you'd ever have to buy another one.

Hey Teechen!

Fair; my brother also had an old 212 Plus, and I'd definitely consider buying the new Evo. But here another option has appeared:

Cooler Master T2 Blizzard;

Have you heard about it? Is it a good option too?; 212 Evo seems way too expensive right now in Argentina :S

Thank you Thomas, but water cooling is not even an option since I do not know how to work with that kinda things, as well as they're way more expensive than a 212 Evo (the cheapest of them) and wouldn't be a good option. Using intel coolers is not recommended for this kind of proccessors either.
