I think the TiMs I've mentioned is better than CM Essentials E2 and the maximum fan speed of pentium D dual core series is around 3-3.3k RPM.

^^ Just get a CM Hyper TX3 @ 1.45k - you will get a tube of good TiM with it for free or else opt for Hyepr 212 Evo which is a much better choice at 2.1k.

Yes. There is adequate ventilation and space...... and I cleaned the fans and heatsink just a few days ago..........

Can anyone tell me which one will be better Hyper 212 Evo or TX3. 212 Evo is almost Rs 800 pricier, and will it be worth it?
I plan on buying a Haswell next year, as Ivy bridge is having heat issues when Overclocked (I wanted to buy it, and sandy bridge is old now)........... And i definitely will overclock. AFAIK Cooling solutions off 1156 and 1155 will also support Haswell. What do you say?

Well if I save the money here, I can spend on a better cabby and psu.... if its not worth

Re: CPU Overclock List & Discussion Thread

Hello guys,
I am thinking of buying a cpu cooler for 2k. i want to replace the 965 's stock cooler which produces horrible noise and my processor's temp is also reaching its official safelimit(62 deg C) on load.
Flipkart has Deepcool GAMMAXX400 Cooler for 2.1k.
does anyone have experience with this cooler, is it a good brand.
Is it comparable to CM Hyper 212 Evo.
Will it fit in my CM Elite 334 cabby.
pls answer my queries.

@topgear

my main concern is noise. i am not going to overclock. i just need decent temps.
i want to order from flipkart but flipkart does not have Evo.
Reviews on GAMMAXX 400 suggest it is good cooler and its also few 100 bucks cheaper.

Don't rust on flipkart reviews.
that deepcool cooler is 3rd class cooler in terms of quality and performence.
Flipkart doesn't have EVO is stock?
Wait for them to restock it one again.
If you can't wait, then you can think about buying from SMC or primeabgb or itwares.

Here's SMC's link for TX3 EVO
Hyper TX3 Evo, 1155/1156 Socket RR-TX3E-28PK-R1

and for 212 plus
Cooler master Hyper 212 Plus(RR-B10-212P-G1)

They don't seem to have 212 evo atm but you can always call them and enquire. Flipkart is usually very overpriced for computer components and comments are usually made by people who are not very knowledgeable or trolls. You'll likely get it for the same price if not cheaper in computer markets.

Are these temperatures normal:

CPU: 36 C
VR: 34 C
RAM: 36 C
HDD : 35 C

I have never seen my ram and HDD reaching this temperature. You can see my config in my signature. Currently I've set minimum CPU fan speed to 70% duty cycle and it's mostly running at 1500-1600 RPM.
