Spec me a CPU cooler for 1200 socket

[Minibiker]

Hi all

I'm looking to get a good cooler for my Intel PC which is 10th gen 1200 socket... I have a budget upto £40, would like some RGB (I know its not everyone's cup of tea)

I was looking at the Alpenfohn Ben Nevis advanced cooler on OCUK for £30.. The older version had some good reviews

Cheers

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/arct...duo-white-cpu-cooler-2-x-120mm-hs-074-ar.html The Arctic series is a great choice for performance/price/noise, compares well to the Noctua coolers.
What cpu will you be using it on, and will you be overclocking it?

I have been debating going for this one, very solid performance so I've heard...

It will be used on a 10400f for now so not anything OTT and not Overclocking

Go Arctic, you really can't go wrong with it all the reviews on it have people surprised how well it performs at the price.
And I've had the £90 Noctua monster cooler before, to get back the space in your case and not have 2kg hanging off your cpu is nice

Think I will go for it tbh bud, Sounds like the perfect cooler, Doesnt have the RGB but thats fine as performance is more key than flashing lights

I've had Arctic p12 fans before and was very surprised at the performance of them

You can always add led strips later

Yeah I will do... I will be adding some new fans and new case at some point

Best thing is, it's in stock, so should be in your rig by crimbo
