Nice quiet cooler for a non-OC'd E6750

Ergates · 30 Mar 2009 at 23:38

Hello

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a nice quiet (silent?) cooler for my E6750. I'm too lazy to bother with overclocking, so shouldn't have to be anything too extreme.

I've always just used stock coolers, so I'm not really up-to-date with them.

Suggestions?

thermalright ultra extreme 120 + sharkoon 2000 fan + fan controller or sharkoon 1000. this keep overclocked quad cores cool (with the 2000) with ease, so depending on airflow in your case, you may be able to even have it passive.

arctic cooling alpine 7 pro less than a tenner!

or arctic freezer 7 pro 17ish£

no point in spending 40£+ if your not going to overclock

I second arctic freezer 7 pro or an akasa 965, very cheap and very quiet, good enough for OCd duals never mind at stock.

If you want silent, and not just quiet, then you need to go passive. A TRUE black should be able to do that for you, provided your case is half decent.

the fan speed on the ACF7P is silent below 2000rpm which it will be because they are not overclocking regardless of the case
