Spec a cooler

Big T · 7 Sep 2011 at 20:21

OK i looking for a good cooler either sealed loop or air but not full water for a 2600k im looking at a 4.8 OC if the chip is good but here is the tricky bit . The cooler needs to be gold/black, Black or a very dark cooler and around the £50 ish mark

Was looking at the Dark Rock pro but heard some bad reviews so i thought i check with the experts

Very good cooler, used it on a new build last month and couldn't fault it,

From the family that brought us the TRUE 120, which was one of the best.

the dark rock pro or what ever it is called is not bad , keeps my 1090T @4ghz at load = 44c . the reviews are a little over the top in picking fault with it tbh , better coolers out there but at a higher cost

Yes sorry OP, forgot you will need a fan (or two if you want)

This should be fine,
