Which coolers would you guys recommend? 84C in Linx / 78C in Prime 95 is too high for my liking ( 4.6 GHZ ). Currently running an A50 cpu cooler.

Corsair Hydro H55 Quiet Liquid CPU Cooler
Corsair Hydro H60 V2 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler (CW-9060007-WW)
Corsair Hydro H75 Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
NZXT KRAKEN X31 AIO Water Cooling Unit - 120mm - Variable Speed Control
 
This should be in stock soon. As it uses compression fittings it's easy to add in a extra block or even a extra rad.

Do you have a Haswell/DC cpu? If so Linx and Prime both use AVX coding which hammers these cpu's. It also increases the voltage by 0.1v if using adaptive or offset voltage. Your cpu will never get that how under normal usage.

Why go to a CLC when you can get better performance and a fraction of the noise with a good air cooler for much less money? And air coolers are much more dependable during years of use.

There are some very good air coolers in the £35-45 range. Best air are £65-70.
