Which Cooler for i7 920?

[D D Danneh]

Titan Fenrir with better fans. So far, the fenrir seems to be one of the top, if not THE top performer, so with quieter/better fans, it's sure to be good.

Edit: A bit late. Note to self, it helps if you read past the OP.

Hey, at least it was a valid point - and you've made me rethink about my choice of the Noctua for a build i'm doing for a friend so it's not a totally wasted post.

Its made more than a 12 Deg difference in my setup

Oh i know the diffence it can make but i am happy at 3.8ghz at 1.16v, i dont see the point in ramping past this for minimal perfermance gain. I will be gfx limited anyway and dont think the wattage usage is warranted. Will give it a try to compare the fans and temps but other than that im happy to stay where i am.

do u think it will be a huge improvement over an Arctic Freezer 7 Pro? By huge I do mean huge, as in taking it to 4GHz if possible ^^

Easily worth it.

Especially if you keep the original fan and stick a noctua on the other end
