BEST COOLER UNDER £30 FOR i5 Z77

Check out the Noctua HS&F's.

Noctua NH-U12P SE2 Dual Fan Quiet CPU Cooler (Socket LGA1366/LGA1156/LGA1155/LGA775/AM2/AM2+/AM3) [NH-U12P SE2]

or

Noctua NH-D14 Dual Radiator CPU Cooler (Socket LGA1366/LGA1156/LGA1155/LGA775/AM2/AM2) [NH-D14]

Never mind, they are both over £30. You get what you pay for! ;) :)

If your going to O/C your system I would advise you look into good quality HS&F's and save up for a decent one. Infact seeing as you have the Asus Maximus Gene V, you purchased it with a view to O/C'ing. Check out the reviews on here, youtube and so on. :)

I'm not spending that much, I don't believe a few degrees is worth twice the money. £30 ish plenty for a good cooler, the 2500k runs pretty cool and I have a well cooled roomy case, I'm not an extreme OC'er, I like playing games not fiddling with settings all day to run benchmarks. I've already OC'ed my system and I didn't need to spend £70 to do it.

I think the ones suggested earlier would do the job brilliantly.

They will, cooler master 612s would be my choice but remember that it is a monster size cooler! :D

I hate to sound like a cliché but I'm using the Hyper 212 Evo on a 2500k @ 4.5ghz and it's keeping everything lovely and cool in a cooler master sileo 500 case (mid tower). No competitor mentions please

regards
Matt
