indeed xD keep them as they are

my 2133 can take a bit more mhz when i try to BCLK OC the E3 i have but i dont need OC atm the Xeon E3-1275v2 is a pretty solide cpu even for gaming

They've ran at 1466 once because i was OCíng the wrong value(FSB) :roll:

i went from a long way since i signed here ... a crappy HP rig with a X6 1035T 8gb 1333 and stock cooler... then i had countless platform doing test bench and lots of buy resell with my hardware till i got lucky enough to have the main rigs i use actually... i know what you mean

This is how i ended up with my two P4 rigs... for a shocking total of €60. Ojne of them is dismantled and one of them is a fuckbox now, too bad neither had good coolers, just OEM/stock ones.

I'm really leaning towards the Ashura for it's amazing fit, and it looks cool as an added bonus. Note that i can only fit smaller dual-tower coolers, which is why the singles appeal to me more right now.

another cooler at low price is the h40 or the h55 if you find a deal xd

take a look at this coolers RAIJINTEK EreBoss,Scythe Mugen 4 or if you find a deal Cooler Master TPC 800.

try on amazon or caseking or ebay if you dont find nothing in NL xd

and take a look at this news xd http://www.techpowerup.com/194115/t...ue-spirit-90m-120m-and-macho-120-coolers.html

_ALB_R3D X · Nov 9, 2013

You should have Cooler Master present in your country
If yes the 412S is only 99mm tall,612S is 128mm and both are pretty good performers if in push pull

HTC · Nov 9, 2013

Could this one do the trick?

http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=productview&products_id=32&lng=en

It's compatible with your board but dunno if the clearance is there if you add a 2nd fan and, as for the performance, dunno if it's enough either.

Finally, dunno if it's available in your area

the link dont work but noctua is not cheap the lower price i see is 49€ for the Noctua NH-U9B SE2 with 2 92mm fans in pushpull but for a lower price can get much more performance i think.

Tried the link and it worked :confused:

It's not cheap, yes and i checked the egg for a reference value: $52.99 so i assumed the value could be around the same in € and it already comes with 2 fans.

Video review, with a 2500K overclocked to 4GHz and up to 4.7GHz and detailed bits about RAM clearance.

Granted: the 2500K isn't the 8350 so it's possible it may not suit the OP's needs.

It does sound spretty good though, i'll check it out ^^

or a second hand H70 but you have to be cautious and lucky at the same time ... Ebay or Ricardo.ch if the seller agree to ship outside switzerland... on Ricardo.ch i saw some H100i under 100chf or H80/80i under 60chf (or as my H70 at 30chf) i wonder why it isnt more common in Netherland, corsair should be more common, well look also for Cooler Master Seidon 120v/m/xl the 2 1st (v/m) are quite cheap and perform quite good, while the XL is same as a Antec 920/H80/H70

as for the Raijintek Ereboss, its a no go its basically a Macho with less excentered base and a slim fan, so if a Macho doesnt fit a Ereboss will not either (i didnt see pricing for it, i assime its in the range of the Macho since it performe only 1c higher)

ypoora1 · Nov 9, 2013

Truns out i can get the Noctua for 60. If it has an AM3+ mounting option(didn't see one?), can move air to the back of the case on AM3+ and doesn't stick out of the mb i'm getting that. Any opinions?

Edit: Just read i need soem sort of kit to mout it vertically on AMD. Is this true,and is it expensive if it is? I found a deal on the cooler @ 56 at my trusted reseller.

Vertically as in fans blowing air out of the back.

Edit: I'm talking about the Noctua NH-U9B SE2

Check the video review from 11:50 on: is this the orientation you seek?

EDIT

Here is the specs page for this cooler.

I know it's compatible with your board because it says so in their compatibility list: whether or not that makes it compatible with your case is a whole new matter.

Yep, like that. Looks like it'll fit, too. I'm thinking about getting this one instead of any other towers ATM.

Black.Raven · Nov 9, 2013

If you need a cheap case, you could also go for this one; it has atx room and antec is an good dutch brand wich stands for quality.

http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/340029/antec-vsk-4000e/specificaties/

succes! (good luck)

Edit: or go for the noctua, that cooler is very quiet with the U.L.N.A adapters

krusha03 · Nov 9, 2013

How about Cooler Master 120V for €44 incl shipping.

It is supposed to be updated version from the 120M and according to this and this it has better results than H60 and here are some results on FX-8350. The only drawback is it is a bit noisy

H40and H55 both within your budget but I am under the impression the CM is better

I have the Antec One gaming case, kinda small, but great case. I can create a small amount of space above the M/B by moving the top fan to the back, smart me just realized.

Damn ,wasn't expecting those to be anywhere NEAR affordable. I'll have to give that a look. Just wonder how i'm ever going to fit such a thing.
