Dangerden TDX compared with Dtek Fusion

Hi, i'm moving over to Intel so i'm thinking do i stick with my TDX and buy an adaptor plate to use on skt 775 or do i just go and get a Fusion.
Is there a massive difference in performance?

Massive? A few degrees certainly but only you can say whether that is massive. I wouldn't spend money buying a plate. Better to buy a better block.

Hey Mike, nice for you to pop in.
Yeah i've kinda made my mind up browsing the net today that i'm going to get a Fuzion.

I'd say the difference is fairly massive, if you're loading at something like 50 with a fuzion and 55 with a TDX (likely to be be more, especially with a quad, they're not great tbh) thats a minimum 10% difference.. that canmake a huge difference to a clock or the amount of noise from fans to keep it under control.

I'd say there's a big difference as well. Like matt says, example of 50C vs 55C is 'only' 5C, but if you think that 55C on the D-Tek might be a notch or two higher on voltage and maybe a few hundred Mhz as well? Depends if you're going to be temp limited or not.

If you are going to get the fusion don't forget to cut all the excess crud off the seal or it might end up in your pump.
