OcUK Tech Labs Fathom

Will the OcUK Tech Labs Fathom All in One Custom Cooler be sufficient for the FX 9370. Upgrading to this saves me money switching over to intel, i have a RV03 case, so water cooling is out of the question.

The 240mm version looks nice with a good thick rad. Not sure how much better over an H100 it would be though considering it is almost 4 times the cost.

My case will accept a 120mm. thats it.

I'm sure the 120mm cooler is good but I think it is a bit steep at near enough £140 (!).

An H100 or a higher end (£40-£60) air cooler is fine for the 9370 up to ~5GHz.

What about my current prolimatech Armageddon for 5ghz? My FX 6350 @ 4.5GHz hits 59c load.

Looking at it it'd do a good job, especially with dual fans. The heatsink's a bit small though.

More recent Piledriver CPUs are hitting higher clocks at lower volts, hence less heat.
