NT06 Lite - Opinions?

t_aitch · 18 May 2007 at 12:42

Well been happily running my Silverstone Sugo + Strider combination for about 2 weeks now, however my CPU fan is very noisy, and im getting quite high temperatures on it due to the fact that im using an old 3200+ Cooler :rolleyes:

. So a new one is needed!

Ive been recommended to get a NT06 Lite by someone on here as it matches the PSU and Case well, but i cant find many opinions on it. Including anyone that owns one at all?

I would like the ability to overclock, but its not essential really, im just looking for a quiet, cool system

Would i get better temperatures with one of these? Im not sure of the voltage of an X2 4400 Skt 939.

Or should i just play it safe and go for a Zalman CNPS8000?

Thanks

I've got one in a sugo, supercr0w has one in a v600 with iirc a c2d 6600. I run an x2 175 opteron (at stock) and I get idle of around the 30-32 and I have not had a load of above than 47 using a tagan psu (which doesn't have the most power fan in the world) and with the as5 still bedding in.

Not a major difference on idle temps compared with my old swiftech cooler and fx121 but it has reduced noise levels due to 2 less fans. The load temps are between 5-10 degrees cooler.

Man above me reccomened it to me.
Fantastic cooler, I dont even use a cpu fan on it, the PSU fan seems to do more than enough.

I use the default paste that comes with, and it idles on 38 degrees, which aint half bad imo.

So this will definitely be ok on a 4400+ X2 Skt 939 then yeah?

yes the opteron 175 is the server varient of the s939 x2 4400+

Not sure if you will be able to keep the overclock though, but probably yes.
